Summary
Directors Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton, writer Michael Arndt and writer Jon Mooallem, on this edition of Fresh Air. Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton's film Little Miss Sunshine is up for four Academy Awards: best film, best original screenplay, best supporting actor (Alan Arkin) and best supporting actress (Abigal Breslin). After the small independent film premiered at Sundance last year to appreciative audiences, film distribution companies went into a bidding war. The film fetched $10.5 million, the highest price ever at Sundance. The film stars Greg Kinnear, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Steve Carell and Abigail Breslin. This was Faris and Dayton's feature film debut after directing hundreds of music videos. This was also the first screenplay of Arndt's to be produced. Then, writer Jon Mooallem, who has written the cover story of yesterday's New York Times Magazine section dated 2/4/07, "Designer-Dog Fights" about the breeders who breed dogs to create a canine with the right mix of behavioral and physical characteristics. Some of the dogs include Pugshires (Pugs and Yorkshire terriers), Bagels (Beagles and Bassets) and Labradoodles (Labradors and Poodles). [Broadcast Date: February 5, 2007]
