Little Miss Sunshine | Accepting the Absurd
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2024
- 'Little Miss Sunshine' teaches us to accept our absurd existence, and in this acceptance, we can find joy. In this video, I bring in concepts from Albert Camus, Friedrich Nietszche, and Marcel Proust to illustrate that the suffering we feel should not be resisted, but accepted, a powerful concept to anyone who’s gone through a dark time in their life.

Little Miss Sunshine got me through some hard times and was a very pivotal piece of art in my life. Recently, I lost my religion after leaving a cult, and absurdism is the only philosophy that was able to keep me here and help me make it through losing everything and having to face nihilism for the first time. Seeing those two things combined in this video essay was so lovely, interesting, and eye opening. Little Miss Sunshine really was my first introduction to absurdism, I just didn’t have the words or concepts to understand it :) This is a great essay, thank you!
thanks so much :) I'm glad it resonated with you
I am obsessed with how accessible and captivating the information is laid out. The way you edited it also deserves a pay rise. Well done!!
thank you very much. I will talk to RUclips about raising my pay... from $0 to $0
Omg why did this video just make me want to live a full life
lmaooo
I think you could argue that the grandpa was battling to stay relevant. Only Olive thought he was still valuable as a guiding figure and when given the chance to be that figure, the grandpa was able to shine. He was positive and encouraging(not superficially like his son), sober, and invested with whomever he was speaking. However, his brand of these qualities miss the mark in a variety of ways and can come across as out of touch with the family and society. Though despite the grandpa dying, leaving a fair amount of film time left, his absence isn't all that obvious, rather his influence is still felt between the family.
Zooming out a little, it's interesting because the grandpa will often give advice similar to what the uncle, would later give when on the pier. In reference to Proust having suffered... concludes with "do what you love and fuck the rest". How the father desperately clings to what success looks like, often steamrolling his family to make a point, only to realize that his family is his greatest success.
So on and so on.
I related so much with this movie, it was nice to see this breakdown so many years later. Keep doing what you're doing, more people appreciate it than you know.
Yes I so much agree! I’m almost 46 so I’m seeing everything in a new light also thanks to EMDR. I watched this movie so many times back then. This guy’s analysis really helped me understand why and gave me some clarity I’m currently in great need of. Young adults these days are the sh!t. They teach me so much! They’re so dang smart
Wonderful video essay! Little Miss Sunshine is a beautiful story and you really elevated the themes with this breakdown. I’m looking forward to more videos from you!
The quality of your videos is consistently incredible. Please keep this good work up!!
Same, he’s got a new subscriber
I made it to the end and gasped because I'm currently reading that book right now too!! So glad I stayed 😂 my current favorite word is Verbosity which I heard in a song by the band of Montreal
I have a video on Crime and Punishment when you're done ;)
No way this channel only has ~300 subs. This is some really great content both in thought and visually. Made it through half the video, really marveling at how it’s put together, before realizing i’m one of the lucky early watchers! Thank you for sharing.
I really liked this video…. 😊
i almost cried watching this video, is so beautiful. thank you for this awesome video essay
Wow just finished the video and you have such a special talent at putting together the true meaning of this movie. I honestly teared up while you were talking about suffering because i related to it so much and the way it was shown in the movie. Pls keep making videos! ❤️
Great movie choice and analysis of the characters. There was a lot going on with the characters
in that one for sure! Thank you. Look forward to another video.
proud to be one of the first 200 some subscribers. i think your content is very high quality :) wonder how many people will be here in 6 months
Absolutely loved this. One of my favorite movies, and what a great analysis!
Excuse me while I watch this movie and come right back for the first rate analysis!
I'm impressed! Truly.
Little Miss Sunshine is one of my favourite movies of all time, and by watching your insightful video you made me treat the movie from so many angles. I've never been able to analyse as you just did.
I thank you so much for what you did, and I can't wait to see more of your analysis.
This is a great video, I hope I get to see more interesting video essays from you.
Your channel is seriously underrated!
This is hand down my new favorite channel 🙌
fucking brilliant. i knew i enjoyed this movie but wasn’t much into philosophy when i watched it. i since have developed an interest and done light studying on it all, and stoicism, nietzche, frankl, and camus have risen to the top. your video made me want to rewatch the movie now! truly a work of art.
@sinnsage me either! Now I want to see it again with fresh eyes
Thank you, I needed this. Thank you deeply
What a beautiful video, thank you so much
Great video. Very informative-I also resonated with the Dwayne/Frank scene near the end, it’s always the moment I go back to when I feel down.
Really enjoyed your content!! Great job
I love this movie. It takes a village to raise a child, and it takes worthy successors to elevate a village ❤
This was very well done. Keep up the good work
Great video, so gad I stumbled across this, looking forward to more!
So glad RUclips recommended your video! Keep goin man. This is really good work. I definitely needed to hear your take on this movie today. I’m going into a 30 day treatment center for intensive trauma and grief treatment this Friday. Again, I needed this and thanks 😊
this movie has always been so special to me and i feel like you really did it justice with this video and reminded me its been too long since i watched it ☺️ amazingly done 🩷
Great message, thanks.
Such a good video, as a camu fan i just loved the way you tied it up 🙏
thank u for being in my recommended
im invested, you talk like no other. What a profound human being... i love your content. Pah! The devil will not take you haha
So I really needed to hear this today 👌🏾 Thank u
You did a really good job analyzing and presenting this film. Keep going. You did great
Awesome video! Super throrough. Love the phrase ahaha wish you well with your youtube journey
Well done
Never been this early in the life of a youtube channel. This one has legs. Keep it up.
I'm surprised that this channel is not immensely popular! Lovely analysis and enjoyable vid, can't wait to paint more paintings while listening to your takes
Devil take me. I'm a new subscriber.
Suffering may have made me who I am today, but I would have absolutely preferred to skip most of it. I think many people who glorify suffering are just trying to reclaim terrible moments as something that didn't happen for "no reason," that maybe it was a good thing, actually. I think that it's just a coping mechanism, but it's one that I do understand. The people who make me mad are the ones that glorify suffering from the outside, from a place of privilege. If they get to be themselves without having to go through it, how can they sit there and say that all the trials that I went through (and am still going through) are a good thing? It feels like a rich person indulging in poverty p0rn or a person going on a self-indulgent "humanitarian" trip to feel inspired in their own lives. Oh, did seeing all those starving kids "enlighten" you? Eff all the way off
BTW, when I say "you," I don't mean you specifically. I'm saying "you" in the general sense
Amazing video very enjoyable👏👏
I wish the devil would take me if you catch my drift. Great video as always. Much love. ❤
this guy gets it
This might be one of my fav videos ever. You put it all together so seamlessly and eloquently, everything just flowed and clicked so well. Immediately subscribed ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@lucypalacios1364 very kind thank you :)
thank you for this amezing interpretation. I know your content will be recognized, I can see a lot of effort, love and quality in your videos, thank you for talkig about this lovely film. greetings from Argentina
ur such a good storyteller
all I have to say is-great job!
Instant sub.
You showed the acceptance of the absurd is pretty good in this video, probs man, but for me the revolt, with passion and love against the absurd is missing, which really puts a bow on camus philosophy. It's the facing of the absurd and the embracing and the rebelling that makes it so wonderful for me
@@crazygreek6341 100% I barely scratched the surface on Camus. For this video didn’t want to get too overwhelming!
Sick yo
Tired of living, scared of dying! 😁😄
Check out the movie "Diving In" from 1990. You will understand later.
Love the video!! I will watch this movie again with my gf if possible (since she likes another genre of movies like those asians as Wong Kar-Wai etc) and if I can move her to watch it, I will share this video with her to be sure of complementing the whole meaning of it!
Also, since you're starting this channel, I really don't seem to appreciate a lot those kind of movies and I wish I could understand better. Maybe someday you could do a video of Chungking Express? It would mean the world for me and I know many people would be happy to be introduced to this piece of art through one of your decent videos!
I'm asking because I trust what you said in the beggining of the video. Your channel has a great potential of growing and being one of the greatest about those thematics!
Writting with gratitude, your new subscriber,
John.
appreciate this, john! I actually have not seen Chunking Express but will check it out.
ahhhhhhhh so good
Tip: back up from your microphone by like 4-6 inches, or you’ll get all these pops and plosives
Tbh the distance is good, but the technique is off. For dynamic mics, the best practice especially in rooms without heavy post processing like in live situations, is to speak a bit of axis, so the tip of the mic should point, at 4 inches away, to the corner of your mouth and never speak to a dynamic capsule from the vertical side, because the build in plosive filter is on the top infront of the capsule. Podcastage has a great video to mic technique
The music is a little distracting from the wonderful insight you provide in your essay :( Love your ideas though great vid!
Amazing analysis! The only feedback I would give is that the background music is sometimes too loud and distracts a bit from what is being said by you. Otherwise, top-notch content. Looking forward towards more reviews/analyses.
good
👍👍 ❤️
Did not make the first 100 :P Anyway. This is a gripping video essay, but consider leaving out or minimizing the background music. You have a soft voice, and the music, while not annoying, sometimes equals your voice in strength, making it hard for people like me to hear you. Don't fear the silence. Anyway, without his stone, what would Sisyphus do and be? And what will become of his stone? Not to mention the faith of that mountain?
Thank you for the feedback!
Like this comment if you were in the first 💯
Sounds kinda similar to Buddhism.
big time. Taoism too.
Um no!. Or you could realize how pointless it is and do something else or try another way. The definition of insanity is do the same thing over and over and expecting different results! CHANGE!
7:10 = do not ask if everyone can accept suffering as our lot? Ask as Fred would: would you redefine your labels, and accept the good and bad as ordered. Amor Fati. GesamtLiebe. To love our existence, all of it. The English word that is closest is vicissitudes... The good and bad both make up who we are - Gestalt.
