Little Miss Sunshine is about a family that's coming apart at the seams for various reasons but all manage to try to pull together when their youngest member has a shot at a beauty pageant. Plucky Abigail Breslin's Olive wants to win and make her family proud, and the rest of her dysfunctional clan has to overcome their differences and their personal issues to help make her dream come true. It's sometimes funny, sometimes a bit sad, weird and silly, but at it's heart it's about overcoming obstacles and managing to love one another as well as acceptance. Not a perfect film but one with some heart.

Continuity mistake: In the Little Miss Sunshine pageant there is a girl who, in the talent competition, does a dance in a cyan-colored uniform-type costume. Her act is before Olive's, which is the very last act, however after the girl's act, she can be seen in one shot being led towards the stage and in another having makeup put on, both times in the same costume. Neither of these should be happening if she has already done her act.
