In the movie Juno, written by Diablo Cody and directed by Jason Reitman it uses formal analysis to show explicit and implicit meaning in different ways. As the story continues Juno decides pro life with the baby and ends up finding some adoption parents Vanessa and Mark. Throughout the movie Juno and Mark began having a bonding relationship with each other that has explicitly enforced our expectation that Mark has a crush on Juno. For example, in the scene where they’re both downstairs in the basement dancing with each other Mark tells Juno that he’s leaving Vanessa and Juno gets upset viewing us to think that Mark likes Juno. The way Diablo Cody shows the implicit meaning in this scene was by understanding that Juno didn’t like Mark she was just a teenage girl that felt isolated and alienated from everyone else because of her pregnancy. The reason why Juno always felt the need to go over and hangout with Mark without Vanessa around was because Juno felt that Mark was the only person who actually listened to her when she talked and enjoyed the same interest as her. My expectations were relatively neutral on this film. If I recall, I was too young to see this movie in theaters and I also never heard anyone talk about it either. Thus I had no real expectation going into the film, but found myself surprisingly invested and enthralled in the characters and story in this film. Director, Jason Reitman, and Screenwriter, Diablo Cody, did an excellent job on handling a very serious subject matter that’s been a topic of heated debt for years. I think the implicit meaning of Juno was to be mindful and wise when it comes to begin sexually active. In the film many characters allude to asking Juno whether she is “sexually active”. Although this line is only mentioned a couple of times and usually used in as comedic relief, I believe it holds significance implicit meaning. This line serves as a statement on the choices. That it’s those choices you make pursuing sex that have a huge impact on one’s future, and if you’re not ready to make “adult decisions” based on those “adult actions” you should refrain from attempting them. Now when it comes to explicit meaning the film to an overall stance on pro-life. This film is about a high school girl who is pregnant and decides to keep the baby, and decides to give the baby up for adoption.  I think the Cody made this clear in the beginning of the film. In which Juno is seen sitting in a waiting room about to get an abortion, but decides against it when she realizes how fragile life is. .

Jason Reitman it uses formal analysis to show explicit and
implicit meaning in different ways. As the story continues Juno
decides pro life with the baby and ends up finding some
adoption parents Vanessa and Mark. Throughout the movie Juno
and Mark began having a bonding relationship with each other
that has explicitly enforced our expectation that Mark has a
crush on Juno. For example, in the scene where they’re both
downstairs in the basement dancing with each other Mark tells
Juno that he’s leaving Vanessa and Juno gets upset viewing us
to think that Mark likes Juno. The way Diablo Cody shows the
