“everybody just pretend to be normal”
one of my all time favorites, and it never gets old. this is one of the examples i always reference when asked about my favorite dialogue in film
Been meaning to watch this for a while now and sheesh I loved it.
What a smart and special movie with such a great underlying message.
I live for this cheeseball indie sundance shit.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but if you don’t like this movie you’re absolutely wrong
A bittersweet ray of sunshine caught in a yellow van filled with actors who have rarely been better.
It also has one of the best dance routines ever put to film.
There's a lot more to say about this film, but in the end it will always boil down to this:
Watch it, embrace it, love it.
And that I did.
okay i have a few notes:
- paul dano is such a soft emo boi in this which is hilarious cause his character's name is fucking dwayne
- paul dano running out onto the grass, screaming fuck and breaking down on the ground is the biggest mood
- child beauty pageants are such a foreign concept to me cause they're not allowed in Australia so it's just so fucking wild to me ??
- paul dano
okay that's all i have to say thank you for your time
Michael Scott, Walter White, ASAC Hank Schrader, the pastor from There Will Be Blood, and the mom from Hereditary walk into a beauty pageant
the last 20 minutes of this fill my heart with so much buzz and love and happiness and comfort and laughter it’s hard to put into words. but damn girl’s a super freak!
You know that somewhat-comforting feeling after a depressive episode where your head warmly crackles and you feel at ease for a few minutes?
Okay goodnight it’s 1:09 a.m.
Is it just The Royal Tenenbaums doing a road trip? Is the bus metaphor incredibly hackneyed? Maybe so! But the soundtrack is one for the ages, Abigail Breslin gives one of the all-time great performances from a child, and you have to take corpse humor where you can get it these days, honestly. The commentary on self-help programs/evangelical individualism is handled nicely as well, never stumbling into the obnoxious or the toothless.
Recommended if you wish National Lampoon didn't suck.
i didn’t think it was possible to fall in love with a person so fast but god i love dwayne with my whole heart
so so cute and funny i loved it very much i want to give everyone in this family a kiss on the forehead except for the dad fuck the dad
Probably going to change it to a 4 stars in the future, but this movie sticks to its thesis like no other.
Through hardship we accept and love our imperfections
tô indo pegar uma cartela de dorflex porque chorei tanto que fiquei com dor de cabeça, infelizmente não é ironia.
So dysfunctional so hilarious. Each character adds their own unique touch. Non better than Alan Arkin.
Didn't love this one, however there are quality aspects and I do appreciate that a movie that starts in New Mexico and features heavy drug use does have both Walter White and Hank in it.
