LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE
Characterization is a crucial part of making a story true and persuading. In order to interest and move readers, characters need to seem real. Authors achieve this by providing details that make characters individual and particular. Good characterization gives readers a strong sense of characters' personalities and complexities; it makes characters vivid, alive and believable.
Little Miss Sunshine is a road film about a family who with so much differences can still be together as one. Because of this, i would like to talk about characterization. It is very important when making a film. Each character, major or minor is essential to the the whole plot of the film. Characterization is a literary element that reveals the description of every character in the story.

In the film, some scenes were boring, well actually most of the scenes but what pulled the energy up to make it more exciting was the different character one portrayed in the film. The plot revolved around them. You will not be able to understand why one acted like that if you would not know each of them. Among the characters, my favorite is Olive. Aside from she was the youngest, she was the only member of the family that had confidence and positivism left. She joined little miss sunshine to fulfill her dreams not knowing that contest would make her family united again. Her family was full of insecurities. They needed to get through any struggle just to make sure to renew and start again.
