Though Ellen Page had made a name for herself prior to the 2007 hit “Juno,” it was with Jason Reitman’s indie dramedy that her career arguably took off.
In one of the first films of its kind, Page plays Juno MacGuff, an offbeat teen faced with an unplanned pregnancy. And while Reitman may not have know exactly what he was looking for in his titular character, the young actor made it abundantly clear in her audition.
Page’s naturalness is stunning paired with her scene partner and eventual cast mate Olivia Thirlby. No wonder she was nominated for an Oscar. Check out the audition below.
