So I went and saw Juno today. Awesome film. Ellen Page who plays Juno really reminded me of somebody throughout the film and really sounded like somebody else, so after the film I googled on my phone who she could possibly be reminding me of. As we were walking out of the screen, I said “shit, where’s my phone?” The guy who worked there started laughing and then I realised I was holding it and staring at Google. Duh. Anyway so I figured out she reminded me of Linda Cardellini. First mission accomplished.
Next step, working out who she sounded like. So now we’re walking down the stairs of the cinema and Google brings up the name Ellen Page and I say “who the fuck is Ellen Page?” even though I had just typed her name in 5 seconds beforehand. My friend was just like “…” At this point I decided it would be better for me to give up my quest because my mind was obviously vacationing in America where such stupid outbursts I’m sure are perfectly normal.
This still leaves me with an unanswered question. If you’ve seen Juno, did her voice remind you of anyone else’s?

Wasn’t Ellen Page the girl from Hard Candy?

Mmm…I wouldn’t say her VOICE reminded me of anyone, but you’re definitely right about Linda Cardellini!
I was actually struck by how much she resembled Jennifer Garner - I guess that makes it easier for Vanessa in terms of future baby-rearing anyway…no cases of “Mummy, why do I look different to you?”.

I thought Juno was an awesome film, too, but Ellen Page did not remind me of anyone else, at all.

^ Yes, Rachael! LOL.
I loved Juno as well. But I can’t think of anyone she reminded me off. The director, Diablo Cody, however, IS Juno. They speak the same, have the same mannerisms, etc. It’s crazy.

Who do you think, Botach?
I saw it yesterday, too. Good film! I would say stuff about it here but I don’t want to spoil anyone. So - next time you’re on MSN we can chat.

I can’t wait to see Juno. I’ve been busting to see it since it came out in the states which seems like ages ago now. I’m usually pretty good with voice recognition so when I see it i’ll try and work out who it could be.

Lmao, yes I definitely think your brain had left the building last night. I still can’t work out who she sounds like and it is driving me mad.

I saw a little bit of Juno.
It sounded like a pretty unique voice to me, actually.
