"Juno" mainly tells the story of a teenage girl who became pregnant and gave birth to a child without marriage. While this may sound like a serious topic, the film is lighthearted, with love and responsibility running through it.
Before watching this film, like Juno, I couldn't recognize the weight of life of a little life who has not yet opened his eyes to see the world. At first, I thought Juno's transformation was too abrupt. Until I actually learned about the steps of an abortion, I couldn't help but think of the disrespect of life by the staff in "Real Women", the noise and unsanitary conditions in the hospital, and - the child's nails in the stomach, maybe these reasons Enough to change the mind of an adolescent child.
Juno, the wife of Zeus, the legendary god of the gods, not only has all the qualities a high school student should have: she doesn't know how to judge, careless, and bold, but also quite brave, independent, mature, rational, and responsible. After confirming that she was pregnant, she decided to give up abortion within a short period of time and contacted Vanessa and Mark, the couple who were willing to adopt a child, and then generously informed the parents. I really can't think of any adjectives to describe her other than cool. She can go to school with a big belly every day, ignoring the alien stares of others; she really cares about the future of her children; she can face up to her feelings and treat her little boyfriend Rick sincerely. But she was only 16 years old after all, and would cry silently in the van, and would seek revenge for Mark because Rick was at the dance with other girls.
If this story happened in real life, there is a high probability that it would not have such a poetic ending. The ending of a 16-year-old unmarried girl with an ordinary family background? Either get an abortion, give birth and be pointed at afterward, or find a place with no one to give birth to the child and throw it away. But as Renoir said, "Why can't art be beautiful? There are enough ugly things in the world!" Taught her what love and responsibility are. Vanessa made Juno feel pure love for life and gave her peace of mind to give birth; Rick always cared about Juno silently and never gave up; Juno's parents did not overreact, but calmly guided her to treat her correctly and handle this.
According to statistics, the actual number of abortions in China exceeds 10 million each year. Data from a small survey jointly conducted by Beijing Obstetrics and Obstetrics Hospital and Beijing Military Region General Hospital in 2009 showed that the proportion of unmarried people among the abortion population reached 40.45%. Considering that some people conceal the fact of miscarriage, the actual proportion is higher. At the same time, the proportion of middle school students and college students in the abortion population is increasing, and the age of abortion is getting younger. Statistics show that about 50% of women who have abortions are under the age of 25. China is also gradually attaching importance to sex education, but there are still many problems to be solved. And this film is an educational film. It tells the audience that a mistake made by ignorance and immaturity is not a big deal, and that if you take risks and responsibilities for a long time and water it with love, you can also reap a beautiful 's fruit.
The film ends with Juno and Rick sitting in front of the boy's house, playing guitar and singing as if nothing had happened.
