Producers Pick Sunshine Over Drama

“Low-budget film Little Miss Sunshine has won a key movie award that is one of the main pointers to Oscars success. In a surprise decision, the quirky family comedy was named best picture by the Producers Guild of America. Little Miss Sunshine had been seen as an Oscars outsider – but beat fancied contenders Babel, The Departed, The Queen and Dreamgirls to the PGA award. The winner of best picture at the Oscars has matched the PGA’s choice in 11 of the last 17 years.”
