Proposal Sheet

Wednesday, 20 April 2011
So this blog post is going to be some basic information about the movie I have picked, and why I decided to pick it. :)


1)The full name of the film I have decided to do is JUNO.


2) The director of the film is a man named Jason Reitman.


3)    This film was made/produced in the year 2007. Although I cannot find the actual date the movie was finishes I found the release date on DVD and the premiere date.
Release Date: 25 December 2007
Premiere Date:  9 December 2007

4)    I picked the movie Juno because I can relate to this movie. Like Juno I became a mother at a very young age. I was 17 years old when I got pregnant with my son. I had to deal with the everyday problems of being pregnant and the fear of raising a child. Like Juno I had many types of hard decisions to make and hoped that I was making the right ones. I was actually pregnant when this movie came out and for some weird reason I feel like it was made for me. Or at least made in a way I just have to watch it. 
*The movie came out December of 2007 so I was four almost five months pregnant*
5)    In this movie there will be some issues Juno has to face. The first would be a moral issue. What to do now that she found out she was pregnant. When a woman is pregnant there are three different things she can decide to do. The first is deciding to abort the baby. The second is to give the baby up for adoption. This way she would being giving her child to a loving couple who cannot have their own baby. This could be for many reasons, one being she feels she is not ready to be a parent. The last option is to keep her baby. Making the decision to become a parent would mean a lot of sacrifice, something many people are not ready or capable of doing. All three of those decisions are difficult to make. At the end of the day it's what you feel is right not only for yourself but for the baby.


   Another issue I see happening in this movie is a problem in relationships. An issue between her and her baby’s father will definitely arise. Their relationship will most likely slip after becoming pregnant.  Also I feel that her relationship with her parents may change.  They may lose trust that Juno can make right decisions by herself. They may pressure Juno into making a decision she doesn't want to make. Even having a different opinion could start some sort of drama in the family.


I think poor Juno has a long journey ahead of her!!

Hey Hey Hey!!

   So I've gotten a little comfortable with using blogs for school work and I've decided I am going to use one for my English Culminating. So the next few blogs, well this whole blog page will be about the movie I picked for my culminating.
Enjoy!!
