Movie Little Miss Sunshine

[Rocco Jones]

Went to see it last night and was very impressed to say the least. Charming, funny, clever, had it all. Great performance from it's cast. Best film I have watched for awhile.

I would really like to see this movie, I seen a bit of it on The Know the other day and it looks really good
I think I will probably have to go by myself to see it though

It's great. Carell, Arkin, and the girl (I forget her name), should be considered for Oscars. Great performances all round.

Agree, it was great. I thought it was well written, well acted, well directed, and it was actually very smart and funny. This is one of those movies that is both great and fun.

Saw this recently and thought it would have to be one of the most under rated movies of the last few years. Didn't get much publicity when it was released so it probably flew under a lot of peoples radars (mine included) but it caught my eye on a flight recently when I saw who was in it and was very impressed. Some excellent performances - Alan Arkin in particular - so much so that it actually won a couple of Oscar's plus a heap of other awards:

I don't want to hype it up too much, but if you haven't seen it then check it out.

I wouldn't say it went under the radar when it was released, it was the 'feel good indie hit' of the year back in 06, similar to the kind of press Slumdog Millionaire is receiving this year....but yes, good film, Steve Carrell is great too.

Interesting... I don't recall reading any press about it at the time. The fact that there were only 3 replies to this entire thread since is it was started back in 2006 indicates to me that it wasn't talked about a lot.
Shame really, as it deserves more kudos. A lot better than some of the other crap that's been released recently.

yeh there was alot of talk about it back in '06....It got the same kind of buzz that juno got the following year, but actually deserved it. Juno is a joke of a movie, the fact that it won best screenplay still gives me chills...

Love this movie, especially the soundtrack.

Yeah great movie but haven't seen it since it in a long time. Will have to grab it out of the collection and watch it again.

Devotchka are a fantastic band - all albums fantastic!

Great movie. Quite quirky and very dry humour.

I too didnt hear a whole lot about it when it came out but first saw it on Showtime.
