So far, I have seen the movie Juno, twice now. And each time, I have absolutely loved it. Personally, if you haven't seen it by now, you should. It's a witty, goofy, comedy that revolves around an unplanned teenage pregnancy. The movie also has a great cast of actors, including Ellen Page and Michael Cera( aka Evan, from Superbad). But one of the great elements of this movie that cannot be ignored is the music.
The Juno soundtrack is quite possibly the best soundtrack I've ever heard.( Minus Motion City Soundtrack, which is a name of a band, and therefore, doesn't count). Anywho, listening to this soundtrack is a must. But beware: The songs are amazingly addicting, their beats just worming their way into your brain and never leaving. It features artists such as The Velvet Underground, Buddy Holly, and Belle and Sebastion. But the artist who really takes the cake with this CD is none other than Kimya Dawson. (Yeah, I had never heard of her before either)
Along with a killer first name, Kimya provides just about half of the songs on this soundtrack. Not to mention, by far the best song on the CD, "Loose Lips", is written by Kimya. But just incase you all don't go out and buy the soundtrack right away, I feel it's only fair to give you a sampling of Kimya at her myspace page: Right Here
