I couldn’t stop laughing and tears came out of my eyes

At the beginning of the film, a refined close-up of the six members of this family was given:
Little Olive, a 7-year-old girl dedicated to participating in the Little Sunshine Beauty pageant, wearing big glasses that cover half of her face, chubby with a cute figure with a small belly, every day Watch the contest video of Miss Beauty Pageant, imitate her smile and posture when she won the prize, stick to her grandpa to help her choose beautiful music, and teach her dance for the beauty pageant.
Grandpa, an elderly hippie who takes drugs and swears (frank and cute), on his way to the beauty pageant, he told Olive's brother Dwayne his most logical saying: "You want a group of women, not one, you must have a group. You 15 Years old, you are stunners, they are stunners, why not" "Don’t take drugs at your age, it’s crazy for young people to take drugs! I’m old, if I don’t take drugs at my age, it’s crazy!" Soon, she asked her daughter-in-law’s brother to buy two pornographic magazines at the gas station, saying: “I like sexier ones, don’t draw movies. Pick your own... Olive found dead in the motel where they stayed due to drug overdose.
Dad, a stubborn man facing a career crisis and a mid-life crisis, likes to talk about his "Nine Steps to Success" most, hates losers the most, and losers like himself.
Mother, a numb middle-aged woman, divorced. The eldest son may have been born to her ex-husband. She is very kind to the two children. She insists on taking care of the family scribbledly, worrying about her husband’s career. Dare to tell Little Olive the truth.
Mother's brother Frank, who is disappointed in love, unemployed, and frustrated, was taken home by his younger sister because of an attempted suicide. There was not much to say. When Mom came to pick him up, Mr. Olive said, "I'm glad to see you here." He looked out the window numbly: "The only one of us is happy." It's so cool.
Olive's brother Dwayne (personally liked him since his second shot), 15 years old, a loyal follower of Nietzsche, when Frank arrived, he had held the oath of silence for 9 months to become a pilot. Without words, the first sentence he said to Frank was written in a notebook. Frank asked: "Aren't you hanging out with friends?" He responded: "I hate everyone." Frank asked: "Where are your family members?" "Dwayne paused for a second, and drew a strengthening line heavily on "everyone". In this film, the real first sentence of this guy is: "FUCK!!!" he roared out when he just learned that he was color-blind and would never be a pilot in his life.
It's such a family. For reasons of their own volition and involuntariness, they are on the road, for the "Little Miss Sunshine" beauty pageant held in California that Olive has been looking forward to. Along the way, the car broke down. Every time it was started, people had to push it. Then the whole family caught up with the car that had already started like a race, jumped into the car door, and then started off. Suddenly, my father learned that the book he thought was a best-selling book could not be sold, so he rushed to a gas station and called his contact person. At this moment, Grandpa made a request to Frank to help buy two pornographic magazines. Frank agreed. When paying for the pornographic magazine, he met a gay lover who had just abandoned himself and caused himself to commit suicide, and was seen what he was doing. Pay the bill. Grandpa died suddenly from a drug overdose in a motel. The family learned that the corpse could not be transported in time and could not be temporarily stored in the rescue hospital. However, waiting for the corpse to be processed would miss the pageant time. Finally, Dad decided to steal the grandpa’s body from the hospital and pile it up in the hospital. In the trunk, it will be handled as soon as it arrives in California, the pageant location. The family took his grandfather's body on the road like this. On the way, the police almost discovered that they smuggled the body to sway the city. Fortunately, they met a "Yellow Policeman" who loves pornographic magazines. Two magazines that once embarrassed Frank were saved. This one. Less than an hour before the registration deadline for the competition, Dwayne found that he was color-blind and rushed out of the car door to scream at the sky. It was the hug of the cute little Olive who persuaded his brother to go back, and they continued to rush on the road.
After untold hardships, the family finally arrived at the game site. The crowds of people on the game are all artificial little beauties dressed up and shining brightly. Little Olive's purity and simplicity are out of place on the court. Here, the climax of the film is about to come on stage.
In the final stage of the talent show, my brother couldn’t bear it anymore, worried that this style of competition would hurt my sister’s innocent and pure heart, but Little Olive made her own decision. She hasn’t jumped out of that stage and taught her for a few months. No one in the family has ever seen her dance. This is the secret of her and grandpa. To be honest, when at home, no one except grandpa’s family cares what dance she wants to dance. The current 11 glamorous little beauties proudly stepped off the stage. The music selected by Grandpa for Olive sounded. Little Olive's first action shocked me. I suddenly remembered that this is the dance taught by Grandpa. , What else would it be? The most common striptease in an erotic bar! At this time, I was laughing and crying. The pure and innocent little Olive's serious erotic dance looks really make people laugh, but she was deeply moved by her feelings for her grandpa...
Of course the judges couldn’t stand it anymore and ordered Dad took the stage and pulled Little Olive off the stage. Dad went on stage, but started striptease with the really well-deserved little beauty, followed by uncle, mother, brother, and the whole family on the pageant of "Little Sunshine" The judges were blown into the air by the big show of erotic performance. At this time, if the instigator-Grandpa in the spirit of heaven (if he can go to heaven...) saw this scene, I wonder if he would be like me in the sky, dumbfounding.
The judges were blown up with anger and dragged the family to the police station. The last family received a ban on Little Olive from participating in any beauty pageants in the state from now on. Uncle Frank paused for a second and said, "It seems that there is no such thing. We didn’t do much.” So the family returned to reality and embarked on the way home. They still had to push the car for a while to get on the car, but at this time, they were still the same family on the road when they came. .
At the end of the film, I haven't recalled from the situation where I couldn't tell whether it was tears of a stomachache from a smile or tears of moving. I don't know how to evaluate this really cute and touching film. Dwayne said that he hated the current life and felt that every day was suffering. He couldn’t wait to wake up and be 18 years old. Uncle Frank said that if you really woke up already 18 years old, wouldn’t it be because you missed a lot of suffering in life, great people, When people who feel that they have suffered in their entire lives look back on their lives, suffering is their happiest time, and it is these sufferings that make their success. Real ordinaryness, suffering, and happiness are the essence of life.
I would like to offer this bad comment to those who are struggling on the line of suffering, for repentance, for goals, for ideals, for love, and for those who are struggling and experiencing suffering.
