Well this is one of those films you just can't describe to friends and make them go "Wow gotta see that one." It's a quiet little movie and it grabs your heart from the beginning and never lets go of it. I smiled and I laughed every time little Abigail Bresilin was on the screen. This little lady has such a future. This movie was really loved by my macho husband and my 2 cynical teens. Who said "That was sweet." What wonderful, imperfect and quirky characters inhabit this flick. I loved the fact that I found myself laughing and crying sometimes in the same scene. Just a really divine film, watch it and just smile. Little Miss Sunshine indeed.
