I think it's quite amazing that I've been so enthralled by a film with a fairly straightforward story and execution.
What makes it work so well for me is the sincerity of the writing of Juno's character and the maturity she comes to learn from the situation she finds herself in.
The upbeat music choices were also beautiful, as they reflected Juno's more quirky taste in music and film quite appropriately.
Whilst this film could arguably be described as twee, the genuine emotion it inspires surpasses any notion of that.
Also any scene with Juno and Paulie is an absolute delight, and they capture something both incredibly awkward but charming at the same time.
