Juno

Great movie, loved it, but this is not a movie review. I just wanted to point to something which troubled me throughout the film.

In the late great TV series Arrested Development Michael Cera and Jason Bateman play son and father and are the center of the story. In this film, the actors are both in it and yet are never in a scene together. It just gave an odd feeling, like will they meet? How will they interact if/when they do?

It gave the same feeling one might get when two of the actors in a film are married in real life.
