Jason Reitman has seriously arrived. His debut, Thank You For Smoking , was one of the most inspired first-time efforts in years and now his second outing behind the director's chair, Juno, is stealing all the buzz at the Toronto Film Festival away from the stuffy period flicks and Oscar-bait. Opening in the the midst of all the major studio's bigtime award hopefuls (December 14th), Juno threatens to steal away some major prizes from more typically somber Oscar fare. Ellen Page (Hard Candy) stars as the titular teen who gets knocked up by Superbad's Michael Cera. Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman play potential adoptive parent's for Juno's baby in what looks like it will be another perfectly calibrated comedy from Reitman with perhaps a slightly softer touch despite a trailer that makes pretty clear that he has certainly not lost his cynical edge.Trailer
