“Little Miss Sunshine”
I would love to say that this is a feel good movie, however its none of the sort. I would classify this more as a dark comedy.
Olive is a very special girl who lives with her mom, dad brother Dwane and grandpa. Her parents are always working to keep food on the table, although most times they eat take out fried chicken. Her mom’s gay brother who had recently tried to kill himself, comes to live with her family, thats when Olive finds out she has been selected to compete in the “Little Miss Sunshine” pagent in California. Under the supervision of grandpa Olive had been practising for this very occasion, so the family piles up into their old Volkswagen bus and hit the road. The wierd social aspects this family shares with each other will make you laugh throughout the movie, as will the “real life” sadness in them bring tears to your eyes.
