In almost every teenager’s life there comes a time when you look at your family and thing: “Who are these people? Was I not born into the wrong family?!” This is one of several important ideas in the oscar-winning movie, Little Miss Sunshine, released in 2006. In this family, Dad is trying to become famous for his ideas on how to be successful. Grandpa is old and tired and incidentally addicted to heroin. Uncle Frank, a scholar who is also gay, has just tried to commit suicide. Dwayne, the teenager, is so disgusted with life that he has stopped speaking entirely. Mom is nervously trying to keep everyone happy. And then there is 7 years old Olive, a chubby, clumsy girl with glasses who desperately wants to win the Little Miss Sunshine children’s beauty contest. So the whole family drives 900 miles for the contest. The strongest message in this film is the fact that Olive already is Little Miss Sunshine. She does not need a beauty prize because she already is a beautiful person inside, and she does what she loves-to dance, without stopping-no matter what her judges think of her. It is her naïve, sweet goodness in the midst of absurdity that makes this movie so special and unforgettable.
