A decade later, Little Miss Sunshine is the perfect film for an election year

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
When it debuted 10 years ago today, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris’ Little Miss Sunshine was quickly embraced by critics and audiences as an offbeat, quirky comedy about a dysfunctional family. It was then just as quickly dismissed as a terminally twee collection of indie movie clichés and somewhat forgotten. But maybe, this overachieving little film has something of value to say about winning and losing, especially in a year that will see both a nasty presidential election as well as the Olympic games in Rio. U.K. YouTuber Ryan Hollinger has devoted an episode of his web series, Ryan’s Theory, to Little Miss Sunshine and its message of being happy with one’s self.
