Little Miss Sunshine (2006)

The surprise indie hit of 2006 is a road trip comedy of a dysfunctional family from New Mexico who piles into a faltering VW bus to get to an adolescent beauty contest in California. Greg Kinnear is the motivational speaker who tries to bring his seminar rules to family life, Toni Collette is the exasperated mother who barely puts up with his canned aphorisms, Paul Dano the Nietzsche-reading teenage son with a vow of silence, Steve Carell Collette's suicidal brother, Alan Arkin the sex-mad grandpa with a secret heroine habit, and Abigail Breslin the sweet and sunny daughter who throws herself into beauty pageants with innocent glee.
