NPR Interviews "Juno"'s Ellen Page

Interview here. Interesting girl. This was interesting.

"Page believes it was her upbringing in Canada that has set her apart from American actors.

"I wasn't 11 and being forced into tap lessons and singing lessons, and being sent to auditions by my overly tanned mother in California," she says.

Instead, Page attended a Buddhist school in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The lessons she learned about withholding judgment are evident as she considers the scandalous, self-destructive women her age who command so much tabloid attention."
