Take this Little Miss Sunshine Quiz! Easy Trivia | Movies

Answer: Alan Arkin

The award went to Alan Arkin for his hilarious performance as Grandpa Hoover, a heroin-snorting, foul-mouthed, yet very loveable, guy who teaches his granddaughter, Olive, her dance routine. He dies, however, before she can perform the routine at the "Little Miss Sunshine" beauty pageant.

Answer: Friedrich Nietzsche

When Frank first arrives at the house, Sheryl tells him that Dwayne has stopped talking. When he asks Dwayne the reason for this, Dwayne points to a large drawing of Nietzsche on his bedroom wall.

Answer: Super Freak

This is the funniest scene in the whole movie! Olive comes out on stage and everyone is cautiously optimistic, when all of the sudden "Super Freak", by Rick James, comes blaring out of the speakers. She rips off her tuxedo shirt and pants, throws her hat at the judges and dances as hard as she can.

Answer: Heroin overdose.

Grandpa Hoover dies overnight of a heroin overdose. After a touching scene between Olive and her grandpa, he tucks her in to bed and goes to the bathroom. The next morning Olive can't wake him up because he's OD'd on heroin. The family rushes him to the hospital, but it is too late.

Answer: Redondo Beach, CA

During a scene at the hospital, after Grandpa passes away, Richard explains to the grief counselor that they have to get to Redondo Beach in three hours. He asks if he can leave the body and come back for it after the contest, but that was against hospital policy. In order to make the pageant on time, the family sneaks the body out of a window and takes it with them.

Answer: He finds out he's colorblind.

Olive starts playing with some eye exam tests that she gets at the hospital and she asks Dwayne to take a test for colorblindness. When Dwayne can't see the letter A on one of the tests, he realizes that he's colorblind, which means that he can't join the Air Force Academy and he won't be able to fly airplanes.

In a fit of rage, he starts screaming for Richard to pull the van over. When the van stops, he runs out into the desert and has a breakdown.

Answer: Proust scholar

Frank is the number one Proust scholar in America. When the van first breaks down, the family has to push it and run behind to get it started. While all that is going on, Frank casually mentions that he is America's best Proust scholar, as a joke. He mentions it a couple more times throughout the movie.

Answer: Her routine isn't rated.

When "Super Freak" starts playing and Olive rips off her tuxedo, the host tries to get her off the stage. Richard runs up on stage and tells the host that he'll get her off, but instead of taking Olive with him, he starts dancing too. Then the whole family runs up on stage and starts dancing.

When the routine finally ends, Olive is told that she isn't allowed to enter another pageant in the state of California ever again.

Answer: The Nine Steps

Richard is trying to get his career started as a motivational speaker, pushing The Nine Steps. However, when he gets a call from his business partner, he's told that nobody is interested in turning his program into a book. Richard then takes a Moped over to his business partner's hotel and confronts him, but to no avail.

Answer: Olive

Richard is fighting with Sheryl because he gets the bad news about the Nine Steps and Frank has an awkard moment when he runs into his ex-boyfriend at the gas station. So, nobody really notices that they have forgotten Olive. Finally, Dwayne writes a note and Frank reads aloud, "where is Olive?" They then rush back to get her.
