...psychological explorations of Reeves's situation at the time of his death. It wants to melodramatize it more than it wants to fully understand it. The jealous girlfriend business doesn't go anywhere beyond the conventional, but the affair with the married woman does have some traction, in that Toni Mannix - played with lusty high spirits by Diane Lane - was the wife of Eddie Mannix (Bob Hoskins), who was Louis B.

Federer sarcastically barked at Nadal's uncle during the match in Rome. "It's stupid to have a coach for nothing," Rafa says. "That rule is going to change, I promise you." Federer doesn't think it should. "It's just the way it's always been," he says...
...banish their inner losers. Chubby little Olive (Abigail Breslin) is determined to become a prepubescent beauty queen, the Little Miss Sunshine of the title. That goal is not particularly advanced by her brother (Paul Dano) or her uncle (Steve Carell), a Proust scholar coming off a suicide attempt. Mom (Toni Collette) is loving but too distracted to cook. At the Hoover house in Albuquerque, N.M., it's all KFC all the time...
