Little Miss Sunshine
Ignorant Movie Review: Little Miss Sunshine
Response to title: This just has to be sarcastic. I can’t see any way around reading sarcasm into this title. I’m expecting biting social commentary.
Response to curbside poster: I like the yellow VW bus. The peace loving 60’s connotation is almost immediate, and the family(?) chasing after its open side door is a nice visual allusion to the idea of chasing after peace and sunshine.
Response post-credits: Wow, I love this movie. There’s something about seeing a giant canvas Nietzsche mural on a teenager’s wall within the first five minutes of a film that settles me in for Quality entertainment. The movie is definitely a comedy, and it definitely provides biting social commentary (think Ramsey). I don’t personally know anyone to whom I would refrain recommending this movie. I think everyone in Olympia who has the time and financial resources to go to the Capitol Theater over the next couple of nights should go see this movie.
