Show Me The Meaning! – A Wisecrack Movie Podcast

Little Miss Sunshine, directed by Valerie Faris & Jonathan Dayton. Is this a mediocre indie? You know, the one that ends in dance sequences, and sells for an absurd amount at Sundance, and spawns a hundred remakes? OR is it a poignant philosophical study? We get into some Proust, some Neitzsche, some God, the "system" - and more! Enjoy!
