Great movie

Rating: 10/10 (3 February 2008)

First, this movie is a great work of cinema, not a political statement. It doesn't make sense to argue whether it's pro-life or pro-choice, whether high school kids do talk like that, whether it's realistic to expect parents to accept their kid's pregnancy so wholeheartedly, etc. In the end, the movie is neither pro this or that, or against. It's just life; smart kids do stupid things, hormones' call at the certain day of month pushes the girl to get intimate with her best male friend; the result we know. Yes, there are kids who talk like that; and not all kids talk like that. The screenwriter didn't invented those characters, pretty much like Anton Chekhov didn't invent characters for his dramas. Just sit back and enjoy the story. Don't judge the characters; and after the movie ask yourself, what would you do. If you are a parent, would you help your daughter in such "garbage pile of a situation"? If you are a high school boy, and got you GF pregnant, what would YOU do?
