Podcasts about Little Miss Sunshine

Welcome back to a new episode of The Culture Garden Podcast!

ROAD MOVIES: Stories that move us (literally).What makes a road movie work? Dave, Cody, and guest Andy Acker break down the secret sauce — the motion that transforms the characters, the odd couples who can't escape each other, the maps that never lead where they think, and the soundtracks that make it all feel alive.They swap their own road-trip stories (buses, bison, and breakdowns included), revisit classics like Planes, Trains and Automobiles, National Lampoon's Vacation, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Little Miss Sunshine, Tommy Boy, and The Muppet Movie, and explore why these journeys still hit so hard — because sometimes, getting lost is the only way to find your people.Bonus detour: A quick look at the bizarre rise of “stay-at-home sons.”https://linktr.ee/PopCulturePastorPod

Toni Collette (Hereditary, Little Miss Sunshine) is known as one the most dynamic and versatile actors of her generation. From her star-making turn in the Australian comedy “Muriel's Wedding” to her Oscar-nominated role as a struggling mom in “The Sixth Sense,” she's famous for playing visceral characters with big, messy emotions. In this candid interview from the Toronto International Film Festival, Toni sits down with Tom Power to talk about embracing emotionally authentic characters, and how she's managed to avoid being pigeonholed as an actor.

Este es el último episodio de nuestra serie dedicada a los años 80, una década marcada por la sensación de triunfo. Mientras la Guerra Fría definía el pulso entre capitalismo y comunismo, Estados Unidos consolidaba una victoria política, cultural y económica que moldearía el mundo de hoy. En contraste, Colombia vivía una economía cerrada en la que conseguir un Milky Way podía convertirse en toda una hazaña.En esta conversación, Ricardo y Alejandro exploran cómo en esos años se instaló la idea de que había que ser un ganador, y cómo nació, como contraparte, la figura del perdedor. Desde la revolución tecnológica de Bill Gates y Steve Jobs, hasta el ascenso mediático de Donald Trump, símbolo de la ambición y el éxito de la época, reflexionan también sobre obras como Little Miss Sunshine que, años después, cuestionaron y celebraron precisamente lo opuesto a ese mandato de éxito.Consigue El arte de no enloquecer aquí: https://www.librerianacional.com/el-arte-de-no-enloquecer/p?srsltid=AfmBOoosXMUOGj46ViZSS16nyw97thP2kVFEEHdkmVCjqc1Ml2A3Je75. Toma Ficcionario, el audiotaller de escritura con Ricardo Silva Romero: https://ellocutorio.com/ficcionario

In this episode of the OnStage Colorado Podcast, hosts Alex Miller and Toni Tresca began by discussing our Colorado theatre experiences since the last episode. Alex reviewed & Juliet at the Denver Center, describing it as surprisingly enjoyable despite disliking the pop music soundtrack. He also attended the 24 Hour Plays fundraiser at Curious Theatre, featuring six playwrights creating original works in 24 hours, with notable performances from Denver theater veterans.Toni covered several productions including Forbidden Broadway: Merrily We Stole a Song (which we discussed in detail on a bonus episode), the interactive art installation Oracle at Union Hall, Comedy Works' New Faces competition (25th year, 168 local comics competing), Little Miss Sunshine at Aurora Fox (which he found problematic as an adaptation), and The Tempest at Colorado Shakespeare Festival, which he praised for its visual magic and strong performances.Denver Fringe Festival RecapTime: 24:30 - 33:30We both attended the sixth annual Denver Fringe Festival, which kicked off with a showcase at Cleo Parker Robinson Theater hosted by Juice the Clown. Alex saw three shows including a cabaret performance and Plant the Musical (a confusing two-person show where both actors played the same character). Toni saw eight shows and published seven reviews, with Ben Franklin Sex Party at Rise Comedy being his favorite — an immersive comedy involving the audience in founding a new country called “Birdlandia” that ended with a group orgy scene and syphilis outbreak.Tony Awards DiscussionTime: 33:30 - 42:45We discussed the relevance of the Tony Awards for Colorado theatergoers, noting that while the shows are only in New York initially, Tony wins can help shows tour nationally. Major winners included Maybe Happy Ending (Best Musical) and Purpose (Best Play). Toni watched clips of the ceremony, praising host Cynthia Erivo's opening and noting that the Hamilton reunion performance was the evening's highlight, though it overshadowed other nominees.Colorado Theater NewsTime: 42:45 - 49:45Theater Funding Crisis: As reported by the Denver Gazette's John Moore, two northern Colorado theatres - Bas Bleu (33 years old) and OpenStage (50 years old) – are both facing financial shortfalls due to reduced public arts funding, needing emergency fundraising of $40,000 and $15,000 respectively. This contrasts with Denver metro theaters that benefit from the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD).Other News:Colorado Renaissance Fair opens June 14th for its 48th season, though elephants may be banned due to legal challengesDenver native Annaleigh Ashford returns for DCPA's Saturday Night Alive gala on June 14thBreaking news: We announced the 19th Annual Henry Award nominees, with the ceremony scheduled for July 28th at Lone Tree Arts Center.

The theater has grown to three full-time employees including new Operations Manager Kevin Douglas and Executive Director Ryan Heidenreich.Key Topics We Covered:Unique Programming: Combines traditional theater with burlesque performances through their troupe “House of Shimmie Shake,” which sells out annuallyOriginal Works: Cucciniello has written over 20 plays, mostly devised collaboratively with ensemble castsRecent Success: Ski Bum the Musical by local ski bum Li

Today on the podcast we are talking about the 2006 hit Little Miss Sunshine.

This week on Movies You Forgot You Forgot, Adam and Joe take a reluctant trip back to 2016's Captain Fantastic. What was once a quirky indie now feels like a confusing manifesto on bad parenting and questionable life choices.  They break down the film's muddled philosophy on death, its oddball charm (or lack thereof), and why it brings the far superior Little Miss Sunshine to mind. Spoiler: some films are best left in the past. Got a film you forgot you forgot? Hit us up at moviesyouforgotyouforgot@gmail.com with your thoughts, episode suggestions, or just some light praise.  You can also follow Adam @errorofways on Letterboxd; he rates and reviews the films he watches. The comments section is a very cool place to be. Also, be a pal: tell your chums, rate us, review us, shout our name into the void - whatever helps spread the word.

This week is a Sally pick, in 2006 "Little Miss Sunshine" was released to much critical acclaim and Oscar nominations. We take a look at this comedy/drama that has a stacked cast and a lot of emotions in it, hope you enjoy.

In this week's episode, we discuss the legacy of Losercore, an aesthetic of the late 90s and early 2000s that celebrated the awkwardness of young adulthood and the sartorial idiosyncrasies of social outcasts, from orthodontia and ill-fitting gym uniforms to wire-frame glasses and dishwater-blond hair. We analyze the socioeconomic conditions that led to this period of loser glorification, identify key players (Todd Solondz, Paul Dano), cinematic touchstones (Napoleon Dynamite, Little Miss Sunshine), and generational anthems ("Teenage Dirtbag," "Buddy Holly"), and reflect on how the Internet has transformed today's young losers into threats to themselves and others.Links:Image board"The Birth—and Maybe Death—of Yuppiedom" by Walter Shapiro for Time"Loser: The Hero of the 1990s" by Grunge Included on SubstackThe Trap by Adam CurtisThe Nineties by Chuck Klosterman@yungkombucha420 on TikTok"Americans Need to Party More" by Ellen Cushing for The Atlantic"The Anti-Social Century" by Derek Thompson for The AtlanticLoser Generated Content: From Participation to Exploitation by Soren Mork PetersenBillie Eilish on having no friendsCelebrity with no friends blind item ("not Jessica Chastain")Emma Chamberlain closet videoBed rot talking stage TikTok / "Love in the Time of Bed Rotting" by Isabel Unhinged on Substack"The Story Behind The Song: Beck and the crowning of the ‘Loser' generation" – Far OutTeenage Dirtbag – Wheatus (Offical Music Video)Buddy Holly – Weezer (Official Music Video)Losercore TikTok boys: Slushy Noobz, Thomathy, Ben Awad, William ConradMarc Jacobs, Circa 2003: Long Hair, Neck Brace & Sweaty (PHOTO)Prada Spring/Summer 1996Marc Jacobs Spring 1999Marc Jacobs Fall 1999Vetements Fall 2019 MenswearBalenciaga Pre-Fall 2021 "Gucci's Beautiful Losers Hit New York" – Business of Fashion"The Book of Gucci According to Alessandro Michele" – 032c"Student Teaches Teacher" aka Jeff Bliss aka Friggin Packet Yo (Original YouTube Video)"Who's Afraid of Hasan Piker?" – Slate"Still Life (Betamale)" by Jon RafmanParty in their Blood – Cloudy Heart (Official Music Video)Bully (formerly @bully.incel.simp.hero) Duane Hanson – Saatchi GalleryDadsgiving by Chris Maggio This is a public episode.

Episode Description: In this heartfelt and insightful episode of Raising Cinephiles, Jessica Kantor sits down with producer, podcaster, and new mom Carolina Groppa. They discuss their shared love of cinema, the challenges of raising children while maintaining creative careers, and the transformative journey of motherhood. Carolina reflects on her upbringing in Brazil, her evolution from actor to producer, and how her experiences shape her approach to storytelling, community, and family. Together, they explore the balance of being both present mothers and passionate creators, offering listeners a raw and honest glimpse into the realities of working parents in the entertainment industry.Key Highlights:1. First Media Memory & The Power of Storytelling* Carolina's first impactful TV experience was watching The Wonder Years, dubbed in Portuguese, as a child in Brazil.* Despite cultural and geographic differences, Carolina felt seen by the show's themes of growing up and self-reflection, highlighting the universal nature of storytelling.* Discussion on how certain shows and films shape us at a young age, even when we don't understand the technical aspects of filmmaking.2. Growing Up with Cinema* Carolina's father's love of classic comedies and cinema influenced her taste, with movies like Amadeus and National Lampoon's Vacation becoming family staples.* Moving to the U.S., TV shows like Full House and Family Matters became tools for learning English, reflecting the power of entertainment as an educational tool.3. Discovering Personal Taste* Carolina's taste in film and TV evolved in high school and college when she began studying classic films.* She reflects on how taste is fluid, growing alongside life experience.* Jessica and Carolina discuss how aesthetic preferences (like color palettes and visual storytelling) impact their appreciation of certain directors like Aronofsky and Almodóvar.4. From Acting to Producing* Carolina's path into the entertainment industry began with acting, but she later found her passion for producing.* Early frustrations with the acting industry's limitations and the 2008 writer's strike led Carolina to seek new opportunities.* Producing became a natural fit for her skills, and her experience as an actor helps her support other creatives and connect with story-driven content.5. Navigating Motherhood & Career* Carolina reflects on becoming a mother and the mental load of balancing her career and family.* She opens up about her community's support and how her mother's help has been instrumental in navigating early motherhood.* Jessica and Carolina discuss the importance of "mom networks" and how having a strong community of working mothers in the industry provides essential support and inspiration.6.

Want to write a great screenplay? Little Miss Sunshine writer Michael Arndt shares secrets from Pixar, Hollywood, and a decade of script doctoring! What We Discuss with Michael Arndt: Success in screenwriting often requires extreme persistence and resilience — Michael Arndt wrote 10 screenplays over 10 years before selling Little Miss Sunshine, and even then did about 100 drafts of that script before it was ready. The best stories often create a "tilted universe" where the protagonist is a response to or antidote to the negative values of their world (like Robin Hood emerging in response to an unjust system, or The Dude's laid-back nature contrasting with an aggressive world in The Big Lebowski). Audience feedback is crucial but challenging to balance — as Michael quotes Billy Wilder: "Individually they're idiots, but collectively they're a genius." You have to respect audience intelligence while still maintaining your creative vision. Great endings often work by creating a false binary (win/lose) and then revealing a surprising third option that exceeds audience expectations — like in Little Miss Sunshine where Olive neither wins nor loses but creates something entirely unexpected. Anyone can improve their storytelling by studying great stories and breaking them down systematically — Michael's own journey shows that storytelling is a craft that can be learned through careful analysis, practice, and continual refinement of understanding how stories work. His video essays on screenwriting (available on YouTube) offer concrete tools for developing these skills. And much more...

In this episode of The Rewatch Party, Nick, Anthony, and Manny take on the indie comedy-drama Little Miss Sunshine, exploring its unique mix of humor and heart, and evaluating its rewatchability. The film follows the dysfunctional Hoover family as they embark on a road trip to California for young Olive's beauty pageant. Nick opens the discussion by pointing out how Little Miss Sunshine manages to capture the essence of family dynamics, portraying each character's quirks and struggles in a way that's both funny and deeply relatable. Manny is quick to agree, mentioning how the film's blend of humor and emotional weight makes it an engaging watch. As they dive into the characters, Anthony brings up the ensemble cast, noting standout performances from Steve Carell, Toni Collette, and Alan Arkin. He praises Arkin's portrayal of the foul-mouthed, supportive grandfather, who adds a layer of warmth and comedy to the story. Nick highlights Paul Dano's character, Dwayne, whose vow of silence and teenage angst bring a unique edge to the film. Manny finds Olive, played by Abigail Breslin, to be the heart of the story, whose innocence and determination remind everyone what family means despite their dysfunction. The hosts agree that the cast's chemistry is a big part of what makes Little Miss Sunshine so memorable. Manny then steers the conversation toward the film's darker comedic elements, such as Carell's character's battle with depression and Dwayne's silent rebellion, pointing out how these elements give the film an authenticity that is rare in comedies. Nick admires how the film doesn't shy away from tough themes, instead embracing them to highlight each character's growth. Anthony emphasizes the movie's use of comedy to ease tension, making it not just an enjoyable watch but also a film that resonates with viewers on multiple levels. They discuss how the blend of heartfelt moments and dark humor contributes to the film's rewatchability. By the end of the episode, the trio agrees that Little Miss Sunshine is a highly rewatchable film, thanks to its heartfelt story, unforgettable characters, and honest portrayal of family. Nick concludes that the film's charm lies in its ability to make viewers laugh, cry, and root for the underdog in all of us. Manny adds that each rewatch reveals new details and deeper insights, making it a film worth revisiting. For anyone who loves a mix of comedy and emotional depth, Little Miss Sunshine remains a must-watch that stands the test of time.   https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449059/

As Melanie and I prepared for this episode one question kept coming up ... Who is the protagonist? Melanie argues that the entire family is the protagonist, but I think that Olive (who is the Little Miss Sunshine contestant) is the protagonist. It's an interesting question and our discussion about it is even more interesting.

'Little Miss Sunshine' teaches us to accept our absurd existence, and in this acceptance, we can find joy. In this video, I bring in concepts from Albert Camus, Friedrich Nietszche, and Marcel Proust to illustrate that the suffering we feel should not be resisted, but accepted, a powerful concept to anyone who's gone through a dark time in their life.My other videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM-cp9Mw810https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Us5_-iiEbEhttps://youtu.be/DdCxER5hoLc?si=HzYPZEPW99Kx268Khttps://youtu.be/rRPkaVtx1_o?si=g9lWy-jbyWHT1l25Website: https://remarkablebooksandfilm.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thestorieswetell303/Email: remarkablebooksandfilm@gmail.comPodcast: https://remarkablebooksandfilm.com/podcastBuy used books from me if you live in Denver: https://remarkablebooksandfilm.com/buy-books0:00 - Sisyphus1:20 - The Power of Acceptance3:40 - Channel Intro4:22 - Dwayne; or Do What You Love & Fuck the Rest9:14 - Frank; or Forgive Yourself11:42 - Richard; or It's Okay to Lose14:47 - Sheryl; or Accept What You Cannot Control16:31 - Olive; or Embrace Yourself19:18 - Accepting the AbsurdSources'The Myth of Sisyphus' by Albert Camus'The Will to Power by Friedrich Nietszche'Thus Spoke Zarathustra' by Friedrich Nietszche'In Search of Lost Time' by Marcel Prousthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4pDUxth5fQ#philosophy #camus #nietzsche #videoessay #proust #filmreview #acceptance #mentalhealth #sisyphus Hosted on Acast.

Click here to get a 25% discount on the Dwell Bible App. Today's conversation on Back Porch Theology is a vulnerable one y'all because we're tiptoeing into the theology of tears. Crying used to make me uncomfortable. There was so much anger and chaos and sadness in my early childhood before my parents divorced that I subconsciously began using my blanket as a mini cape and tried to be Little Miss Sunshine. The way I figured it, my poor Mom and Dad already had their hands full of so much hard stuff they needed a daughter who was a self-sufficient smiler, not some needy crybaby. I was well into adulthood before I finally understood that my childish conviction that sad equals bad was way off base. Because sincere tears are God's gift to express emotion where words fail. Those tiny rivers of salt coursing down our cheeks can help wash the debris of spent sorrow from our weary souls. They can even carry big balloon bouquets of sheer joy. And biblical narrative is quite literally soaked with tears. Ruth wept after her husband died and at the idea of being separated from her mother-in-law Naomi, Hannah wept because she was brokenhearted over her infertility, of course Job cried out to God over the death of his children and employees, along with the catastrophic loss of his health and wealth, Jeremiah wept so often over how the Israelites had forsaken the unconditional love of God and were foolishly looking for love in all the wrong places that he became known as the “weeping prophet,” the Psalmists were nothing if not emotionally vulnerable and the Sons of Korah – who were ancient worship leaders – even exclaimed that tears had become their food, Peter wept bitterly when he realized Jesus was right the night before when He soberly declared Pete would betray Him three times before the rooster crowed the following morning, an unnamed woman in the Gospels was so overwhelmed by the kindness and accessibility of Jesus that she washed His feet with her tears, and our Savior himself shed tears during His earthly life and ministry. One of my favorite writers Charlotte Bronte put it this way, “I believe while I tremble, I trust while I weep.” The bottom line is grief is not ungodly and is rather, biblically defensible as well as modeled by the Messiah Himself. We hope today's conversation might be the beginning of real healing for some of you precious saints who've been bottling up your sorrow for far too long – likely with good intentions, or at the very least the goal of not being a burden to anyone else. So please grab your favorite beverage, your Bible and maybe a box of tissues and then scooch your chair right up next to ours on this big, ol' porch where you don't have to pretend like you're okay when you're not.

https://www.michelledanner.comwww.allinfilms.com   Instagram michelledannerla  There aren't many people who can point to a career full of success as a performer, teacher, storyteller, entrepreneur, and expert. But Michelle Danner can. The legendary acting teacher and founder of the Creative Center for the Arts and the Los Angeles Acting Conservatory, Danner is also now well-established as a successful film director. Her last film,“Miranda's Victim,” stars Abigail Breslin, Luke Wilson, Ryan Phillippe, Emily VanCamp, Mireille Enos, Enrique Murciano, Brent Sexton, Josh Bowman, Sebastian Quinn, Taryn Manning, Nolan Gould, Dan Lauria, Kyle MacLachlan, Andy Garcia and Donald Sutherland. The film tells the true story of Trish Weir (Breslin) who was kidnapped and brutally raped by Ernesto Miranda. The subsequent trials went all the way to the Supreme Court and led to creation of the Miranda Rights. Up next for Danner is the comedy romance film “The Italians,” which stars Matthew Daddario (Shadowhunters), Rob Estes (Silk Stalkings), Perrey Reeves (Entourage), David DeLuise (Wizards of Waverly Place), Olivia Luccardi (It Follows), Lainie Kazan (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), and Abigail Breslin (Zombieland, Little Miss Sunshine). The film is currently playing at festivals around the country. A dedicated mom of two (one is an aspiring filmmaker), Danner still has her “day job” – overseeing the faculty of the Los Angeles Acting Conservatory, and conducting her weekly acting class. Michelle has worked privately with Christian Slater, Salma Hayek, Gerard Butler, Seth MacFarlane, Penelope Cruz, Chris Rock, Gabrielle Union, Zooey Deschanel, Henry Cavill, Isla Fisher and James Franco. A longtime student of legendary acting teachers like Stella Adler and Uta Hagen, Danner's eclectic approach (which she calls “The Golden Box”) allows actors the freedom to employ a wide variety of techniques. Raised in a show business family and with a deep appreciation for all of the performing arts, Danner also continues to run the boutique “Cinema at the Edge” film festival and is currently preparing to direct a new one-person play, Bonnie Culver's “Norris,” starring Anne Archer, based on the memoirs of the widow of writer Norman Mailer. Simply put, there's almost no one in the business who knows as much about acting and success as Michelle Danner – and her continued success in multiple creative fields makes her one of the most successful women working in the industry today.

Just in time for Father's Day, here is a fondly remembered action comedy starring two legends which was first released 45 years ago this month.  Those two legends are Peter Falk (TV's Columbo) and Alan Arkin (Oscar-winner for Little Miss Sunshine) who play two VERY different fathers whose respective son and daughter are about to get married.  Falk plays Vince who's an agent for the CIA while Arkin plays Sheldon who is a dentist....through a series of unfortunate events, Vince gets Sheldon embroiled in his ongoing effort to take down a global conspiracy to crash the U.S. dollar and hilarity ensues!  (It really does.) Directed by Arthur Hiller (Love Story, Silver Streak) and written by Andrew Bergman (Fletch, Blazing Saddles), it's time to go SERPENTINE!!! Send us a Text Message.https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
