Juno
Johnny C:
The portrayal of the girl at the abortion clinic was the only part of the movie that actually bothered me. Everyone else in the film is a real character so why make her a stereotype?
KvP:
I don't know, the bickering couple in the science class was just as vaguely sketched, as well as Rainn Wilson's character, that font of indie dialogue.
Elizzybeth:
Actually, the whole abortion clinic scene bothered me. From the beginning, Su-Chin protesting alone, shouting, "All babies want to get borned!" but speaking in otherwise perfect English when talking to Juno, seemed strange. Then there was, as Johnny C points out, the receptionist and her painfully stereotypical piercings and apathy. And all the scratching and tapping that finally drove Juno out seemed forced, too.
Johnny C:
No, the scratching and tapping made sense. When you're in an emotionally taut state stuff like that can get to you, especially when you're on the verge of making the decision Juno was planning on making.
I don't remember the science class couple, but Rainn Wilson's character runs the 7-11 nearest my house and his portrayal of her is dead on.
bryanthelion:
I watched Amelie.
I liked it!
