Review: Juno

Tuesday December 4, 2007
Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody used to be a stripper. She's articulate, attractive, and not in the least bit press shy. In the title role of the smart-talking pregnant teenager, young Canadian actress Ellen Page (Hard Candy) is also enormously appealing. She's pretty and tiny and delivers Cody's super hip dialogue with just the right amount of offhand understatement.

They are a winning combo, and the buzz for Jason Reitman's second film, which opens tomorrow, has been almost deafening. The verdict over here: Juno is pretty good. Read Marcy's review.
