Interview with "Little Miss Sunshine" Directors Valerie Faris & Jonathan Dayton. By Kim Voynar When "Little Miss Sunshine" debuted at Sundance earlier this year, it was one of the most buzzed-about films at the fest, partly because Steve Carrell, fresh off the success of "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," was in the film, and partly because, well, it’s just a funny movie.
