Little Miss Sunshine

I finally got around to watching Little Miss Sunshine. It was a really great film, though somehow I ended up feeling a little let down, like it wasn't quite as good as I expected it to be. I guess I’m a jerk.

A family determined to get their young daughter into the finals of a beauty pageant take a cross-country trip in their VW bus.

Darius Goes West

Last night Megan and I actually arranged for a baby sitter and went out for the evening (first time we've ever done that since moving to Seattle). A friend had forwarded an email about a screening of a documentary, 'Darius Goes West,' that was part of a fund raising effort, and we decided to attend. The film is the story of Darius Weems, a young man with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and a group of his friends. Together, they drive from Georgia to California and back. The film was moving- wonderfully put together and telling a touching story.

If you have the opportunity to see this film, I'd highly recommend it. If you have the chance to see it and raise a little money for DMD, even better.
