In astronomy, astronomers appropriately named Jupiter's largest moon Juno.
In the movie, the heartless 16-year-old girl said,
my name comes from Juno, the first goddess in Greek mythology, crazily beautiful, crazily mean.
"kinda like you."
"Gee, thanks?" In
mythology, Juno Not a good mother, she is even vicious. Only brought a son to Zeus, and spoiled him. Seeing other outstanding concubines, he became jealous and mad, and wanted to put it to death.
Juno, who is jealous, lustful, and hateful, has also become Zeus's biggest headache, the most unpopular woman in the myth.
Juno's name seems to be a joke with her, just like the encounter in the film.
She is a typical and atypical American girl. Young and invincible, smart in ice and snow, big people, love rock, drink orange pseudo orange juice Sunny D, Martian spray, full of curiosity about sex, full of whimsical action, nerds and squares, from the divorce of parents The working class, and the relationship with stepmother Brenda is still very cool. The
first time the relationship was hit. She didn't lose her mind, and the sky didn't fall down.
Plan A: abortion, but because a passerby said "your baby already has nails", I immediately chose plan B: give birth to the child and give it to someone with the conditions and ability to adopt it.
We know that two or three-month-old babies will not have nails at all. That is just a joke, but Juno cares about the inner feelings that those words bring. At that moment, she truly realized that there was a real life in her belly. It was also at that moment that her sensibility and motherhood defeated her rationality and calmness, and she could not destroy an innocent life because of her own rashness. Even though she doesn't know what maternal love is, the strong sense of guilt and inexplicable desire to protect her heart filled her with the aura of motherhood and instantly gave her the courage to face reality.
The activist Juno told the child's father in the most handsome way; found the seemingly perfect adoptive family with the most efficient speed; after everything was done properly, confessed to the family. Until here, I have been in a state of surprise and curiosity. I was amazed by Juno's calmness and courage, the understanding and help of his family, and wondered how the story should turn around.
As an audience, who can not fall in love with Ellen Page's Juno. On the surface, I don't care, but I understand it better than anyone else. But they are not young and mature, they will still be sour when they are jealous, and cry when they are wronged. All imperfections are her shining points, and this is where we touch our hearts. Because she lived real and happily. This tomboy with a big belly like a whale, dangling, plaid shirt and jeans, carrying a rotten schoolbag, not only did not escape, but was able to laugh at himself "I'm a planet!" It made me fall for her courage and optimism.
Vanessa and Mark are couples who intend to adopt children. His wife Vanessa is a perfectionist, with high nervousness and lack of sense of humor. She wants to be a mother crazy; her husband Mark is freelance, leisurely, and loves music. Obviously, Juno liked Mark more at first because they have so many common languages, rock, guitar, and bloody movies. In this process, Vanessa did everything a mother could think of except for pregnancy: piles of toys, the color of the baby's room, weeping at the B-ultrasound photos, and touching her belly to talk to the baby. . . I don't know how Juno feels about her in his heart, envy? In awe? Even a little scared? In front of Mark, Juno is still sixteen-year-old Juno. Mark is just Mark with a rock dream. It seems that the pregnant child has nothing to do with them. But when he proposed that he was not ready to be a father and planned to leave Vanessa, Juno collapsed. Because that was a dream of her, for this dream, she was willing to bear everything she was bearing. In this dream, the child lives in a beautiful big house on the outskirts of a good environment, with endless vitamin water and endless fresh fruits and vegetables. He loves his parents, the treasure in the palm, the flesh in the heart, happily ever after .Now, this dream has been broken. She thought it might be beautiful, it's just like everything else. She questioned the possibility of true love forever.
At this time, the child went home dejectedly. Father explained to her in a simple and popular way: It's hard, but it's possible. You just need to find someone loves you just for you. Imperfect, even if we fail again and again, we can find the same imperfect but unique true love in the collision. And that kind of love will be selfless, unconditional, and without reason. So Juno said to Paulie , You are the coolest person in the world, you don’t have to pretend to be. Kissing on the playground, her belly is against him, it'
This film is also based on women, which is touching and inspiring a courageous growth experience. They have demonstrated bravery and perseverance than men.
Juno respects life and bravely gave birth to the child; Vanessa calmly accepted the divorce, and was determined to complete the adoption even if she was single; the stepmother Brenda defended Juno's dignity in front of the B-ultrasonic teacher cynicism; best friend Leah, regardless of the eyes of her classmates, Staying with her friends, even accompany her through the process of labor pains, she is just a 16-year-old girl.
Juno, Vanessa, and Brenda are three women of different ages, but they work so harmoniously for the common role of "mother". I believe that in Juno's bones, after all, I hope that one day I can become a successful, confident and capable woman like Vanessa, and provide a good living environment for my children. The perfect world operated by Vanessa collapsed instantly after Juno appeared, but the ultimate courage was obtained from the young Juno. Brenda, the stepmother who often quarrels with Juno, what we see in her is the most unselfish and unexamined maternal love. She made an appointment with a doctor and changed her pants. Because Juno gave up keeping a dog, she shouted in the hospital aisle to ask for anesthetic for Juno. . .
Who said that a young girl's unmarried pregnancy is the end of her life?
Who says that single mothers are equivalent to families with unsound children?
Who said that the stepmother is equal to the indifference and ruthless view of the stepdaughter as a thorn in the eye?
So,
If you're still in, I'm still in. A
woman becomes a mother at the moment of pregnancy, and a man becomes a father only at the moment of seeing a child.
Juno's father didn't say much, but every sentence was important. Her father never left her. She inherited a humorous and optimistic attitude to her father. From beginning to end, he never told her where to go, he just let her rely on when she needed her shoulders.
Paulie, the child's father, was more at a loss. Boys of about the same age will never be as mature as girls, so he tried to escape and actively invited other girls to prom. The best way he can think of is to ask Juno to eat a donut + watch a movie. His growth is indirect. He really loves Juno, but there are many unexpected obstacles on the road, but like running, just look forward.
Mark is probably the most spurned character and escaped. Boys don't grow up, they grow old. In fact, very early on, I knew they were destined to separate, and the children were just a time bomb. He still has dreams in his heart, his dreams are piled up in a small house in the big house. I do not condemn his choice. Juno released his dream and freed his soul. Because of her, he finally had a reason to ask for a divorce. He understood that marriage and family were not what he wanted the most. He wanted to pursue his teenage dream in a limited time. . You know what, I'm sort of happy for him. This also represents another theme of the movie, better late than never. After
Juno was produced, Paul hugged her from behind, colored striped socks, white sports socks, a pair of youth Couple. It's just that they lie on the delivery bed, their children, or the baby they didn't want to see, have left them forever. Tears are gratifying, tears are wronged, tears are weeping with joy, tears are a part of the journey. you will be back here Juno, when it's your turn. Love is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the confidence in love.
I like this movie because it brings many memories. When I was in junior high school, my best friend who was suspected to be pregnant asked me to accompany her to an abortion. Although it was a false alarm in the end, I suddenly realized that "pregnancy" and "abortion" are no longer such empty words. I also began to realize that I am no longer a child, because the body already has the ability to create life.
In the first year of coming to the United States, there was a pregnant black girl in the class. I didn't even dare to face her, and I didn't know why I blushed, as if the person who was really pregnant was me. Probably, in my teens, I came from China where I was "cannibalized by ethics", and I was traditionally in my bones. I still don't know how to deal with actions that I can't even dare to think. At that time, I couldn't help but want to ask her, why don't you get an abortion? Later, I gradually understood the religious god and the true meaning of respecting life.
Although I am not a supporter of abortion, I agree that abortion is not a tool for ruining corpses after indulgence. I don't want to say more about this topic, and I don't have to say more about it. Pro-chioce or pro-life, I am 16 years old, I must close my eyes to choose pro-choice; now, I say it depends. Maybe in the future, when I become a mother, I will become pro-life again. This is not a persistent choice. But I think the most important theme of this issue stems from the attitude towards life. These two terms put the interests of the baby and the mother in opposition. But in fact, both blood is thicker than water. Except as a last resort, is there a way to get the best of both worlds? And Juno brings us this kind of hope.
