The “Cinephile Cuties” are ready to drive around in a VW band with their entire families. That's because they're talking about Little Miss Sunshine by Valerie Faris & Jonathan Dayton.
In this episode, Cade and Diane discuss two films that premiered 40 years ago in theatres: Little Miss Sunshine (2006) and Miami Vice (2006).Watch the video version at: YouTube.com/@CadeThomas/streamsDouble Feature Movie Club is a weekly movie review show with a retro vibe.Little Miss Sunshine is a 2006 American tragicomedy film directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (in their directorial debut) from a screenplay written by Michael Arndt. The film stars an ensemble cast consisting of Greg Kinnear, Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Paul Dano, Abigail Breslin, and Alan Arkin, all of whom play members of a dysfunctional family taking the youngest (Breslin) to compete in a child beauty pageant.Miami Vice is a 2006 American action crime film produced, written, and directed by Michael Mann. It is an adaptation of the 1980s television series of the same name, which Mann produced. It stars Colin Farrell as James "Sonny" Crockett and Jamie Foxx as Ricardo "Rico" Tubbs, MDSO detectives who go undercover to fight drug trafficking operations.
Movie of the Year: 2006Little Miss Sunshine (feat. Don Shanahan from Every Movie Has a Lesson!)Little Miss Sunshine Podcast: The Hoovers Hit the BracketThe Little Miss Sunshine podcast episode has arrived, and the Taste Buds are packing into the VW bus. This week, Movie of the Year puts one of 2006's biggest indie success stories through the tournament. Ryan, Mike, and Greg welcome film critic Don Shanahan to help judge the Hoover family's run at the crown. Together, the panel digs into the family dynamics, the unforgettable ending, the film's surprising philosophical streak, and the husband-and-wife directing team behind it all. Additionally, the crew squares off in a round of Trivia and builds a fashion-themed Rushmore. Can a sunny yellow bus carry this movie deep into the 2006 bracket? Push, hop in, and find out.About the FilmLittle Miss Sunshine follows the Hoover family on an 800-mile road trip from Albuquerque to Redondo Beach. Seven-year-old Olive has qualified for the Little Miss Sunshine beauty pageant, and the whole dysfunctional clan piles into a failing Volkswagen bus to get her there. The passenger list includes a failed motivational speaker, a suicidal Proust scholar, a Nietzsche-obsessed teen who refuses to speak, a heroin-snorting grandpa, and one very determined mom. Directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris from Michael Arndt's screenplay, the film premiered at Sundance in January 2006. It became a box office sensation, grossing over $101 million on an $8 million budget. Moreover, it earned four Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture. Alan Arkin won Best Supporting Actor, and Arndt took home Best Original Screenplay. RogerEbert.com called it a gentle family satire in the tradition of the countercultural comedies of the 1970s. Now the film faces its toughest challenge yet: the Movie of the Year 2006 bracket.Guest Panelist: Don ShanahanThe Taste Buds welcome film critic Don Shanahan to the panel. Don is a Chicago-based, Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic and the founder of the long-running review site Every Movie Has a Lesson. He also serves as Editor-in-Chief and Content Supervisor of the film department at Film Obsessive. Furthermore, Don co-hosts the Cinephile Hissy Fit Podcast on the Ruminations Radio Network. A school teacher by day, he writes his reviews with life lessons in mind, from the serious to the farcical. Don is a director and co-founder of the Chicago Indie Critics and a voting member of the Critics Choice Association and the Online Film Critics Society. Consequently, few guests arrive better equipped to grade a movie about winners, losers, and everything in between.The Hoover Family at the Heart of the Little Miss Sunshine PodcastEvery great road movie needs great passengers, and this one has six. The panel starts with the family itself. Richard preaches his nine-step winning program while his own career collapses. Sheryl holds everyone together with fried chicken and sheer will. Frank arrives fresh from a suicide attempt, and Dwayne has taken a vow of silence until he becomes a fighter pilot. Meanwhile, Grandpa coaches Olive's pageant routine with methods no pageant has ever approved. The Little Miss Sunshine podcast crew debates what makes this dysfunction feel so real. Notably, the film establishes the entire family in one legendary twenty-minute dinner scene. The Taste Buds and Don break down how each Hoover carries a private definition of failure. Ultimately, the group asks the big question: is this the best movie family of 2006?Breaking Down the Ending on the Little Miss Sunshine 2006 PodcastYou know the scene. Olive takes the stage at the pageant, "Super Freak" drops, and the movie explodes. The panel dedicates a full segment to one of the most famous endings of the decade. By contrast with the polished pageant contestants, Olive's routine is pure chaos, and the family's response is pure love. The Hoovers stop trying to win and start dancing. Don and the Taste Buds debate whether the finale earns its catharsis or leans on shock value. In addition, the crew discusses how the ending flips the film's winners-and-losers thesis on its head. Does the dance number seal the film's bracket run, or does it divide the panel? The episode holds nothing back.Nietzsche, Proust, and the Philosophy of LosingFew crowd-pleasers smuggle in this much philosophy. Dwayne worships Nietzsche and wears his contempt for conformity on his sleeve, or at least on his t-shirt. Frank, meanwhile, claims the title of preeminent Proust scholar in America. The panel unpacks why Michael Arndt built his comedy on these two thinkers. Frank's hospital-parking-lot speech about suffering becomes the film's secret thesis: the years of struggle are the years that make us. However, the movie never turns into a lecture. Instead, it hides its ideas inside gas station stops and highway breakdowns. The crew debates whether the philosophy holds up or simply decorates the road trip. Specifically, they ask what Nietzsche would think of a nine-step program for winning.The Directors: Jonathan Dayton and Valerie FarisHusband-and-wife team Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris spent decades directing music videos before this debut feature. Their work with bands like The Smashing Pumpkins and R.E.M. sharpened an eye for visual storytelling on tight budgets. As a result, Little Miss Sunshine looks sun-bleached, precise, and effortlessly funny. The panel examines how the duo directs comedy through reaction shots rather than punchlines. The famous bus-pushing sequence becomes a masterclass in physical comedy and ensemble blocking. Additionally, the group traces the pair's later career through Ruby Sparks and Battle of the Sexes. Why did two music video veterans wait so long for a second film? The panel has theories, and some of them are even kind.TriviaNo Movie of the Year episode is complete without Trivia. The Taste Buds and Don test each other on all things Little Miss Sunshine. Production history, casting near-misses, pageant facts, and VW bus mechanics are all fair game. The film's six-year development saga and its record-setting Sundance sale provide plenty of ammunition. Who takes the crown this week? Listen and find out.Rushmore: FashionThis week's Rushmore segment tackles fashion. Each panelist carves their personal Mount Rushmore of movie fashion into the mountainside. Little Miss Sunshine gives the category a strong starting point. Olive's oversized glasses and red cowboy boots, Dwayne's brutal statement tees, and Richard's aggressively beige wardrobe all deserve consideration. Nevertheless, the panel ranges across all of film history for their picks. Expect passionate defenses, questionable taste, and at least one choice that starts an argument.Why Little Miss Sunshine Still MattersTwenty years later, Little Miss Sunshine remains the gold standard for the crowd-pleasing indie. It proved a tiny comedy could outgross blockbusters and crash the Best Picture race. Furthermore, its skepticism about hustle culture and toxic winning has only grown more relevant. Richard's nine steps sound like half the internet in 2026. The film also launched Abigail Breslin, revived Alan Arkin, and showed the world Steve Carell could break hearts. Above all, it argues that losing together beats winning alone. That message keeps the Little Miss Sunshine podcast conversation alive two decades after the bus first rolled.

This week, we review Little Miss Sunshine (2006), Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris's offbeat road trip dramedy about dysfunction, dreams, and the beauty of being unapologetically yourself. Abigail Breslin shines as Olive, a determined young girl en route to a beauty pageant, crammed into a busted yellow VW van with her deeply flawed but oddly lovable family. Featuring standout performances from Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Greg Kinnear, Paul Dano, and Alan Arkin, the film blends sharp wit with heartfelt moments as it explores failure, acceptance, and what it really means to win.Is chasing your dreams about the destination or just surviving the ride?

Directors Kristin Gore and Damian Kulash discuss their new film, The Beanie Bubble, with fellow Directors Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton in a Q&A at the DGA theater in Los Angeles. In the conversation, they discuss the evolution of the script over the years, the limitations in using real likenesses and Beanie Babies, and structuring the story as a rise and fall for its many characters. The film tells the story behind the Beanie Baby toy obsession that took off in the 1990s, centered on manufacturer-turned-billionaire Ty Warner, and the women who were integral to his success.

Maxime Ruszniewski, ancien journaliste, a cofondé la Fondation des femmes. Il a travaillé aux côtés de Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, en tant que conseiller du Secrétariat d'État chargée de l'égalité entre les femmes et les hommes et de la lutte contre les discriminations. Aujourd'hui, il est entrepreneur féministe, avec Remixt. Il a publié en février dernier "Petit manuel du féminisme au quotidien". Un livre accessible, à toutes et tous, avec beaucoup d'informations (passion stats !), et de vrais conseils utiles, des pistes concrètes pour abattre le patriarcat, et rassembler toutes les bonnes volontés. Pas pour aller chercher les adeptes du "Not all men", mais convaincre une majorité silencieuse, qui compte sans doute des alliés qui s'ignorent. Merci à Maxime pour son optimisme communicatif, sa bonne humeur, et son action militante au quotidien. Car comme il l'écrit dans son livre (p.70) : "Le féminisme ne se proclame pas, ne se revendique pas. (...) Le féminisme se vit, il s'éprouve.

Tone is probably the strongest element that defines a project and yet, surprisingly, is a topic that is frequently the least discussed on a feature film, pilot, or first season of a television show. DGA members interested in learning more about techniques for determining and subsequently communicating this ever elusive but critical aspect gathered in the Guild's Los Angeles theater for Special Projects Committee event, Creating & Talking Tone with Your Team. In a conversation moderated by Director Valerie Weiss, Directors Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris, Karyn Kusama and David O. Russell spoke about what has worked and not worked on their productions. In the conversation, the panelists discuss how the topic of tone is implemented throughout their projects and shared their advice on how to achieve tone through music, casting, opening shots and much more. Please note: spoilers are included. See photos and a summary of this event below: https://dga.org/Events/2023/April2023/SP-CreatingNTalkingToneWithYourTeam-0323.aspx

"Um verdadeiro perdedor é alguém que tem tanto medo de não ganhar que nem tenta" Pequena Miss Sunshine (2006) é um road movie, onde acompanhamos uma família quebrada fazendo dando o seu máximo para fazer com que Olive consiga chegar em um concurso de beleza que ela parece não ter chance de ganhar. A comédia se mistura com o drama de forma delicada, fazendo com que temas muito sensíveis possam ser apresentados para uma criança protegida pela sua própria inocência. O filme foi dirigido pela dupla Jonathan Dayton e Valerie Faris, casal que vem da indústria musical, mas que se aventurou no cinema inicialmente com Pequena Miss Sunshine (2006), tendo dirigido também alguns títulos menos expressivos como Ruby Sparks - A Namorada Perfeita (2012) e Guerra dos Sexos (2017). O roteiro é de Michael Arndt. Esse episódio do Enquadrando conta com a presença da equipe mais comum, onde Fabio Rangel, Daniel Cavalcanti, Gabriel Gaspar (Acabou de Acabar) e Rodrigo Carvalho discutem pontos sobre o filme, e o debate inclui: - Cultura da Competição; - Coaching; - Inocência como ferramenta do roteiro; - A busca da verdade por uma jornada ilógica; --- Apoie o Enquadrando: https://apoia.se/enquadrando Siga nossas redes sociais e expanda essa conversa! email: contato@acaboudeacabar.com.br Twitter: @enquadrando_ Instagram: @enquadrando_oficial Youtube: youtube.com/Enquadrando TikTok: @enquadrando_oficial --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/enquadrando/message

The debut film of Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris. This is a solid film with a great screenplay and a great cast to knock it off the pageant floor. I dig the strengths these cast of characters do and aren't afraid to show their weakness which is interesting to see in any film.

All work and no play makes Calvin a dull boy in this week's spotlight film, 2012's RUBY SPARKS. From the directors of Little Miss Sunshine Johnathon Dayton and Valerie Faris, it centers on author Calvin Weir-Fields (played by cinema's favourite weirdo Paul Dano), who after a prolonged episode of writer's block, writes a scene about a woman named Ruby Sparks, (played by the film's writer, Zoe Kazan), his ideal partner. After writing about Ruby and feeling she's almost real, Calvin dreams about her and when he wakes up, she's in his house. As much a psychological horror story as it it a romance, this movie puts the manic into manic pixie dream girl.

In this edition of the Curzon Film Podcast we welcome Valerie Faris & Jonathan Dayton, one of the finest doubles teams in filmmaking, to discuss their new tennis film 'Battle of the Sexes'. In addition, star Andrea Riseborough, joins us to serve up her thoughts on this ace film as well. Following 'Little Miss Sunshine' and 'Ruby Sparks', Faris and Dayton's new film tells the story of the infamous tennis match between ex-pro Bobby Riggs and Women's Number One Bille Jean King, as well the personal battles both were fighting in their private lives too. Discussing the film are Sam Howlett and Jake Cunningham Produced and edited by Jake Cunningham Music supplied by incompetech.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
How Billie Jean King changed how women are perceived and treated today. The post Valerie Faris, Jonathan Dayton – Battle Of The Sexes appeared first on Fred Film Radio.
Cinematographer Linus Sandgren, FSF details shooting the true-life comedic drama for directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris.
Filmmakers and married couple Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton planned to release their film about the 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs before the 2016 presidential election. Then their star, Emma Stone, signed on to make La La Land and Battle of the Sexes got pushed back. Now their film -- about a battle against misogyny, gender discrimination and homophobia both on the tennis court and off -- suddenly has more resonance than they expected.
