I've barely watched any of the nominated movies... BUT Jon Stewart is hosting! So, if I had watched more movies it would be a double win, but I'll settle for the single.
Well, I wouldn't say I LOVED it, but I do like it :)
I agree that it's an awesome mislead. I mean, I fell for it - there was a HUGE draw-back-and-cringe-lots moment when she was swaying his hips and then he brings her hands up around his neck. But the dancing is pretty innocent - she being very pregnant and he not wanting to be Daddy and really not doing anything overtly pervy. I mean, he didn't try to kiss or fondle her. No, they were each using the other for something: Juno for the perfect couple to unload the unplanned kid onto, Him for being cool again and reliving his youthful ambition of rockstardom. Juno is a catalyst for his departure from the marriage, both in the baby-bringing and the rekindling his (apparantly suppressed) passion for music and life before marriage.
Plus, Juno's reaction is totally all about the baby. She begs him not to do anything because they're an aweosme couple the baby is going to. And she wallows on about relationships (btw, her Dad is pretty awesome LOL). So it was a brilliant decoy... because I cringed at first. A lot.
