So today I went to see Little Miss Sunshine - quite possibly the most "real" movie about a family that I have seen in a long time. I read that some critic thinks Steve Carrel should get an Academy Award for it...I wouldn't go that far, but I did find it interesting that both he and Greg Kinnear (who also stars in the movie) started out in comedy. I loved Kinnear when he was the host of Talk Soup. Not a huge fan of the guy who does it now.
The movie so realistically portrays what could be any family down on it's luck and trying to figure out how they could all possibly be related to one another. Not unlike most of us. I often wonder how on earth my brother and I can be related when we don't look alike and we definitely don't act similar. I think his age has always been about 64 and mine will stay at about 15.
Speaking of being 15, I missed not only the Emmys this year, but also the VMAs. How sad is it that I care? I like to watch for the fashion and the horrible awards speeches - I'd like to thank God, my lawyer and my agent. But I was sadly denied this year. Sigh...now I can only look forward to the Oscars. But frankly all of these shows are getting so lame. I mean, where is Byork when you need her?
