I have to say, this is the best movie I have seen in a long time. If you haven't seen it go, please rent it, or netflix it or how ever you watch movies get it.
Ok so you may ask Gerbil, why did you like this, you hate everything....
well, this has some of the most interesting characters I have seen in long time...I am particularly fond of Dwayne, Frank and Grandpa.
I guess for me Dwayne and Frank are pretty close to home....Dwayne reminds me a bit of a high school Gerbil...all I wanted to do was get the hell out. Frank is what I could be in 10-15 year, but instead of a Proust scholar I'll be a trust scholar....but the pettiness of academia and what it can drive you to is only too apparent if you hang around too long without appropriate balancing mechanisms (like Sir GB).
But I also have to say, I enjoy the statement it makes about children's beauty pagents. Olive is the only kid that actually looks like a kid, not a shrunken barbie doll. I won't ruin the movie for those who haven't seen it. But she is the only one with integrity.
It isn't often I moved to write here about a movie or anything I have seen, so I think that should be good enough for some of you to check this movie out.
