    Plot

    In Elk River, Minnesota, sixteen year old high-schooler Juno MacGuff discovers she is pregnant by her friend and longtime admirer Paulie Bleeker. She considers an abortion, until going to a local women’s clinic where she encounters a schoolmate outside who is holding a one-person anti-abortion vigil. Once inside, Juno decides to give the baby up for adoption. With the help of her friend Leah, Juno searches the ads in the Pennysaver and finds a childless married couple she feels will provide a suitable home. She tells her father Mac and stepmother Bren, who offer their support. With Mac, Juno meets the couple, Mark and Vanessa Loring, in their expensive Saint Cloud home, and agrees to a closed adoption.Juno visits Mark a few times, and finds they share tastes in punk rock and horror films. Mark, who has set aside his rock band youth (now confined to memorabilia displayed in the one room of the house that Vanessa has designated for Mark’s personal belongings), works at home composing commercial jingles. Juno and Leah happen to see Vanessa in a shopping mall being completely at ease with a child, and Juno encourages Vanessa to talk to the baby in Juno’s womb, which kicks for Vanessa.As the pregnancy progresses, Juno struggles with the emotions she feels for the baby’s father Paulie. Juno maintains an outwardly indifferent attitude toward Paulie, but when she learns Paulie has asked another girl to the upcoming prom, she confronts him in a jealous rage. Paulie reminds Juno that it is at her request they remain distant and tells her she broke his heart.Not long before her baby is due, Juno is again visiting Mark when their interaction becomes emotional. Mark tells her he will be leaving Vanessa to figure his life out. Juno is horrified by this revelation, with Mark asking Juno, “How do you think of me?”, revealing he is starting to develop feelings for her. Vanessa arrives home, and Mark tells Vanessa he does not feel ready to be a father. Juno drives away and breaks down in tears by the side of the road. Returning to the Lorings’ house, Juno leaves a note and disappears as the Lorings answer the door.After a heartfelt discussion with her father, Juno accepts that she loves Paulie. Juno then tells Paulie she loves him, and Paulie’s actions make it clear her feelings are very much reciprocated. Not long after, Juno goes into labor and is rushed to the hospital, where she gives birth to a baby boy. She had deliberately not told Paulie because of his track meet. Seeing her missing from the stands, Paulie rushes to the hospital, finds Juno has given birth to their son, and comforts Juno as she cries.Vanessa comes to the hospital, where she joyfully claims the newborn boy as a single adoptive mother. On the wall in the baby’s new nursery, Vanessa has framed Juno’s note, which reads: “Vanessa: If you’re still in, I’m still in. —Juno.” The film ends in the summertime with Juno and Paulie playing guitar and singing together, in a happy relationship.

    Themes

    Along with Knocked Up and Waitress, two other 2007 films about women facing unplanned pregnancies, Juno was interpreted by some critics as having an anti-abortion theme. Ann Hulbert of Slate magazine believed that Juno “[undercut] both pro-life and pro-choice purism.“MAGAZINE,www.slate.com/id/2180275, Juno and the Culture Wars, April 5, 2008, Hulbert, Ann, December 18, 2007, Slate, Jeff Dawson of The Sunday Times believed that the film was inevitably placed in the “unwanted pregnancy subgenre” with Knocked Up and Waitress due to its subject matter but thought that its interpretation as an anti-abortion film only “muddied the waters”. Hadley Freeman of The Guardian criticized Juno for “complet[ing] a hat-trick of American comedies in the past 12 months that present abortion as unreasonable, or even unthinkable—a telling social sign”, though she noted, “I don’t believe any of these films is consciously designed to be anti-abortion propaganda.“NEWS,www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2008/jan/28/healthandwellbeing.film, A choice that films ignore, April 5, 2008, Freeman, Hadley, January 28, 2008, The Guardian, Hadley Freeman, A. O.

The crew was planning to import snow for the film’s winter events, but it snowed on location, and they were able to reschedule filming to shoot the winter scenes during snowfall, which second assistant director Josy Capkun says resulted in much wider snow shots than originally planned. Although the film was shot out of sequence, the final scene was scheduled for the final day and, after a long period of rain, the crew was intending to shut down production and resume months later to shoot the scene, set in summer, but the rain stopped and they were able to shoot the scene in the sun. That final scene depicted Juno and Paulie singing The Moldy Peaches’ “Anyone Else but You”, and band member Kimya Dawson visited the set to speak to Page and Cera while they were practicing the song.

Initially, Reitman had conceived of Juno being a fan of glam rock, but rejected it as too inauthentic, and he said he wanted to construct Juno to be “into music very real and authentic”, making her a fan of punk rock, including The Runaways, Patti Smith and Iggy Pop and the Stooges.WEB, Celis, Barbara, Interview: Jason Reitman (Juno), ioncinema.com, December 5, 2007,www.ioncinema.com/news/id/2364, June 26, 2008, He felt that the Sonic Youth cover of “Superstar” defined Juno and Mark’s relationship—Juno preferring the classic 1971 version by The Carpenters while Mark preferred Sonic Youth’s 1994 cover. “A Well Respected Man” by The Kinks was a song Reitman had associated with a character from another of his screenplays and says it was “heart-breaking” when he decided to include the song as an introduction for Paulie instead, despite feeling it suited the scene perfectly. He found children’s songwriter Barry Louis Polisar’s “All I Want Is You” after “surfing iTunes for hours on end” using different words and names as search terms and thought that the handmade quality was perfect for the opening titles, which were afterwards made to correspond to the song. The “Brunch Bowlz” jingle, Mark writes in the film, was composed by advertisement writer Chris Corley, with whom Reitman had previously worked on a set of commercials for Wal-Mart.NEWS, Meep Meep,www.huffingtonpost.com/jason-reitman/meep-meep_b_73624.html, Huffington Post, November 20, 2007,

    Design

    The film was set out in a sequence of the year’s seasons, which, Reitman said, “really resonated with me when I read it, because they mirror the three trimesters of Juno’s pregnancy.” Because filming took place over only 30 days, fake flora was used to give the impression of different seasons while other flora was edited in post-production. Brown leaves were composited onto a fake tree outside Juno’s house and cherry blossom trees outside Leah’s house were touched up in a lighter shade of pink to depict autumn; a fan was used to blow leaves around in some scenes as if the leaves were falling from trees. Fake flowers were used in front of Paulie’s house at the end of the film to give the impression of summer. Reitman used different colors to inform character, such as the burgundy and gold Dancing Elk High School track uniforms and an early scene with Juno in a red hooded jacket “walking through a world of somber greens and browns.“Cody was impressed with the production design team’s creation of the set from only a few sentences in her script, calling Juno’s bedroom “a very emotional set for [me] because it reminded me so much of my own little habitat when I was a teenager.“WEB,www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=40048, Juno Screenwriter Diablo Cody, April 16, 2008, Douglas, Edward, December 13, 2007, ComingSoon.net, April 9, 2008,www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=40048," title="web.archive.org/web/20080409012902www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=40048,">web.archive.org/web/20080409012902www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=40048, dead, The walls of Juno’s room are covered with posters of bands, while Leah’s room includes a mural of older men she finds attractive and Paulie’s room is overly childlike to indicate his innocence.

The pictures were cut out and scanned back onto the computer, then layered onto the background drawn by Lee with compositing software to create a stop motion animation sequence that corresponded to “All I Want Is You” by Barry Louis Polisar, the song Reitman had chosen. Shadowplay also designed the titlecards for each of the seasons for the film, hand-made a custom typeface for the opening title sequence and the closing credits, and collaborated on the design of the soundtrack and the DVD.

She criticized proponents of the theory, stating that they believed that teenagers “somehow lose all ability to evaluate any nuance or context in that woman’s particular situation, and instead make some sort of primitive cause-and-effect connection” and that “by talking about pregnant girls, and most of all, by daring to portray some of them as ordinary, even likable, we’d get way more babies having babies.” She concluded that “depicting teen parents may not glamorize them, so much as humanize them. You know, that thing that happens when one person recognizes that someone else is a person too?

I’m sorry, but somebody is going to have to explain that to me.WEB, Genies deem ‘Juno’ not Canadian enough,www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/genies-deem-juno-not-canadian-105956, February 29, 2008, The Hollywood Reporter, }}Sara Morton, the head of the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television, issued a statement explaining that the film had never been submitted for Genie Award consideration by its studio.NEWS, Andrews, Marke, No Genie nominations for Vancouver’s Juno, The Vancouver Sun, February 29, 2008,www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/business/story.html?id=fd0f69cc-a564-413f-9535-d25f0546d1c2, April 11, 2008, dead,www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/business/story.html?id=fd0f69cc-a564-413f-9535-d25f0546d1c2," title="web.archive.org/web/20080502023357www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/business/story.html?id=fd0f69cc-a564-413f-9535-d25f0546d1c2,">web.archive.org/web/20080502023357www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/business/story.html?id=fd0f69cc-a564-413f-9535-d25f0546d1c2, May 2, 2008, The Hollywood Reporter explained that Genie rules define Canadian films as financed at least in part by Canadian sources, and because American companies Mandate Pictures and Fox Searchlight were the sole funders, Juno was ineligible. Nonetheless, Genie spokesman Chris McDowall said that while the film was not evaluated for eligibility since it was not submitted, “Financing is one of the criteria, but it’s not everything.” Despite this, the film was eligible for the 2008 Canadian Comedy Awards, receiving two wins from three nominations.WEB, Our 2008 Canadian Comedy Award recipients,www.canadiancomedy.ca/awardwinners.php?year=2008, December 22, 2013, dead,www.canadiancomedy.ca/awardwinners.php?year=2008," title="web.archive.org/web/20151018204942www.canadiancomedy.ca/awardwinners.php?year=2008,">web.archive.org/web/20151018204942www.canadiancomedy.ca/awardwinners.php?year=2008, October 18, 2015, WEB, Nominees announced,www.canada.com/story_print.html?id=77e1e7df-63b2-4c17-b397-779feb141699&sponsor=, Canada.com,www.canada.com/story_print.html?id=77e1e7df-63b2-4c17-b397-779feb141699&sponsor=," title="web.archive.org/web/20160304215244www.canada.com/story_print.html?id=77e1e7df-63b2-4c17-b397-779feb141699&sponsor=,">web.archive.org/web/20160304215244www.canada.com/story_print.html?id=77e1e7df-63b2-4c17-b397-779feb141699&sponsor=, March 4, 2016, June 4, 2008, dead, {| class=“wikitable plainrowheaders sortable”
