You didn't give yourself a black eye, did you?
And apropos of nothing, I give Little Miss Sunshine a solid B. Alan Arkin is hilarious (which should surprise no one).

Agreed on all counts. The payoff at the end really pays off as well. But Arkin makes the movie.
Speaking of Sundancey flicks, I give Quincenera an A-. It features one of my favorite characters in recent movies, Tio Tomas. The whole thing takes place in Echo Park, which is the next town over from Silver Lake. It's kind of about gentrification, which made me feel like a shit for kicking out the sweet old Mexicans who've lived here for 40 years. But then I realize I bought my house from the original owner -- a mean white woman. So then I felt better.
