Julianne Hough, Russell Brand and Octavia Spencer star in this
comedy drama written and directed by Diablo Cody. One year after
surviving a plane accident Lamb Mannerhelm (Hough) denounces God
while in church in front of the devout Christian congregation.
Determined to live the life she wants to live she leaves behind the
religious community she has been brought up in and travels to Las
Vegas, hoping to have some new experiences that are deemed sinful
in her home town. While there she befriends bartender William
(Brand) and singer Loray (Spencer) and they join her on her journey
of self-discovery.
The official screenplay book tie-in to the highly acclaimed movie
from Fox Searchlight Pictures, written by Diablo Cody (author of
"Candy Girl") and directed by Jason Reitman ("Thank You for
Smoking"), tells the story of a confidently frank teenage girl who
calls the shots with a nonchalant cool and an effortless attitude
as she journeys through an emotional nine-month adventure into
adulthood.
While most girls at Dancing Elk are updating their MySpace page or
shopping at the mall, Juno is a whip-smart Minnesota teen living by
her own rules. A typically boring afternoon becomes anything but
when Juno decides to have sex with the charmingly unassuming
Bleeker (Michael Cera). Faced with an unplanned pregnancy, she and
best friend Leah (Olivia Thirlby) hatch a plan to find Juno's
unborn baby the perfect set of parents courtesy of the local Penny
Saver. They set their sights on Mark and Vanessa Loring (Jason
Bateman and Jennifer Garner), an affluent suburban couple who are
longing to adopt their first child. Luckily, Juno has the support
of her dad and stepmother (J.K. Simmons and Allison Janney). After
the initial shock that their daughter has been sexually active with
the unlikely "virile" Bleeker, the family bands together to help
Juno. Dad Mac accompanies Juno to size up the prospective adoptive
parents to make sure they are not a couple of "wing nuts" while
stepmother Bren provides emotional support as Juno fights the
prejudices of underage pregnancy. As Juno moves closer and closer
to her due date, the veneer of Mark and Vanessa's idyllic life
starts to show signs of cracking. While fall becomes winter and
winter turns to spring, Juno's physical changes mirror her personal
growth.With a fearless intellect far removed from the usual teen
angst, Juno conquers her problems head-on, displaying a youthful
exuberance both smart and unexpected.
In addition to the complete script, this Newmarket Shooting
Scrip(R) book includes a foreword by director Jason Reitman, an
exclusive introduction by Diablo Cody, a color photo section, and
the complete cast and crew credits.
