“Little Miss Sunshine”: sweetness and bitterness

Written on 25 February 2007 by

“Little Miss Sunshine” has won the main prize of the Spirit Awards, which is the Oscar’s art equivalent. The ceremony of the Spirit Awards was held a day before the comedy had to compete in four categories and to win the prize form the Oscar’s Academy Awards.
The film shows the story of a family cross-country trip and the dramatized representation of beauty of ten-year-old girls, and has finished with four awards. The bittiest moment of the film was that not all people, who made this movie, would have an opportunity to compete for the main prize. The group which arranges Oscar Ceremony, the Academy of Arts of the Film and Sciences, has declared about their intention to limit the number of the producers only to three.
Oscar’s innovation has come into force after in 1999 five producers of the “Shakespeare in Love” have overflown a stage, demanding the best picture Oscar for the movie.

The guardian, attorney Richard Milstein, said that Anna Nicole Smith would be buried next to her son in the Bahamas. However, Milstein gave no concrete time limits for funerals.
In reply to Anna’s mother claim the judicial assistant has told, that inquiry to block funeral was considered, but the assistant did not know, when the final decision will be announced.
Attorneys for Virgi Arthur, who insists on Smith being buried in Texas where Arthur lives, are searching for cancellation of the Fourth District Court decision. The Appeal Court in West Palm Beach was closed at 17:00 and no reference has been submitted.
That is really shocking, is that Virgi Arthur, Anna Nicole’s mother, waited till the death of her “dear” daughter to start caring of her. However, it does not look like a real, sincere care, but it seems like a cheap and dirty obsession. Probably, now Arthur feels guilty to not care of her daughter and does everything possible to demonstrate her love and empathy.
