Arkin had to be the sentimental favorite. He's been around forever..:)

We felt exactly the same way. I was trying to figure out if Hollywood thinks 'Little Miss Sunshine' is the typical dysfunctional American family with everyone either shouting 'F' words, trying to commit suicide, sniffing cocaine, a teenager not speaking for 9 months, and a little girl doing a strip.

Really? My wife and 17 year old son watched it with me, and we thought it was one of the best movies of this past year. It was a little strange, no doubt..... some parts, I thought were "over the top"... but, in the end, the message was: "No matter how strange you are, or messed up... the love of FAMILY trumps all". And, a sub-message was, "Youth believes in all possibilities". Both are OK messages as far as I'm concerned.
