Cultural Analysis
In the movie Juno a young white teenager has sex for the first time, just because with her boyfriend and ends up pregnant. After Juno finds out she is pregnant she decides that she is not ready to have the baby and instead of getting an abortion, she will give it up for adoption. Once her parents find out they help her decide on what she is going to do with the baby once it is born. Her friend tells her that they have an ad in the newspapers for adoptive families. She search’s for the right family that will take over and become the adoptive family, only to find out right before she has the baby the adoptive father does not think that he is ready to be a father.
The director of “Juno” analyzes that white teenagers have sex at an earlier age then other races do. And that they don’t get all over emotional over getting pregnant then other females in other cultures may handle when found out that they are pregnant. This movie also shows that many white high school females who are pregnant usually will end up having the baby and then giving it up for adoption after the pregnancy. The time of this movie took place in 2007.
