Netflix Top 100 - 33. - Little Miss Sunshine
A wonderful film about a family coming together on a trip to a children's beauty pageant. This is a great little film and if you haven't seen it already you should be sure to check it out for sure! A wonderful cast carries this film about a family's quest to get a little girl to the Miss Sunshine Beauty Pageant in California.
It is the story of the Hoovers, Sheryl(Toni Collette) and Richard(Greg Kinear)the husband and wife with Olive (Abigail Breslen) and Dwayne (Paul Dano) their children. They are obviously a family that is highly dysfunctional but still together. Richard is struggling to promote his life's dream of showing everyone his "9 Steps To Success", while Sheryl is busy working and Dwayne is busy brooding. Olive, the youngest, is obsessed with beauty pageants and trying to win a trip to California. Throw in a crazy grandfather, Edwin (Alan Arkin), and a depressed brother Frank (Steve Carrell) and you have a recipe for a fun.
This movie and it's cast are all brilliant, but keep in mind the story is just as great. The entire family embarks on a trip to California to get Olive to a beauty pageant. Arkin and Carrell are especially hilarious as the crazy, coke addicted grandfather, and the out of work gay brother. But don't think the rest of the cast is not just as incredible. This is a terrific film and you should definitely Just Queue It!
