Everybody just pretend to be normal.

The Hoover family is the dictionary definition for the word "dysfunctional". The dad Richard is a man who gives lectures on winners and losers, the wife is Sheryl, a chain-smoking, frazzled wife and working mother whose idea of a home cooked meal frequently consists of a bucket of chicken. Her gay brother Frank recently attempted suicide. The grandpa is Edwin, a drug addict. The son is Dwayne a rebel who has vowed not to talk until he gets into the Air Force. And then there is Olive, a seven-year old girl who dreams of going to the Little Miss Sunshine pageant. So what happens when they do?

Patten Cinemas is proud to present, for your viewing pleasure, Little Miss Sunshine. This special viewing of Little Miss Sunshine, marks the 37th chapter of Season Two of Sunday Movie Night, an ongoing series exploring cinema through the years.
