    Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is turning 30 this year, and to celebrate, we are rolling back the clock and bringing encore screenings of hit independent films from the past 30 years to the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre on the 30th of each month!

    “Little Miss Sunshine” was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture. It won two Oscars: Best Supporting Actor for Alan Arkin and Best Original Screenplay for Michael Arndt. It also garnered a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Abigail Breslin.

    This special celebration kicks off with the encore screenings of “Little Miss Sunshine” on Sunday, July 30 — celebrating the festival’s 30 anniversary season and in honor of Alan Arkin, one of the stars of the film who recently passed away.

    “Little Miss Sunshine” was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture. It won two Oscars: Best Supporting Actor for Alan Arkin and Best Original Screenplay for Michael Arndt. It also garnered a Best Supporting Actress nomination for Abigail Breslin.

    Father Richard (Greg Kinnear) is desperately trying to sell his motivational success program … with no success. Meanwhile, “pro-honesty” mom Sheryl (Toni Collette) lends support to her eccentric family, including her depressed brother (Steve Carell), fresh out of the hospital after being jilted by his lover.

    Then there are the younger Hoovers — the seven-year-old, would-be beauty queen Olive (Abigail Breslin) and Dwayne (Paul Dano), a Nietzsche-reading teen who has taken a vow of silence.

    Topping off the family is the foul-mouthed grandfather (Alan Arkin), whose outrageous behavior recently got him evicted from his retirement home.

    When Olive is invited to compete in the “Little Miss Sunshine” pageant in far-off California, the family piles into their rusted-out VW bus to rally behind her — with riotously funny results.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
