Juno (Rated PG-13)
At first glance, this iconic coming-of-age film from 2007 appears to be about a teenage couple trying to navigate an accidental pregnancy. However, it goes so much deeper than that. The lead character, Juno, is smart and quick-witted. She also exhibits symptoms of ADHD, such as struggling to control her impulses and figuring out how to deal with complex emotions.
Her character—ripe with individuality, a witty sense of humor, independence, and vulnerability—is one that many people with ADHD relate to and feel inspired by. The film is also a heartwarming (and hilarious) exploration of Juno’s relationship with the father of her baby and the couple that will be adopting their child.
