Sunshine Cleaning earned praise earlier this year at Sundance, including on this site from Owen Gleiberman and Whitney Pastorek, but Fox Searchlight turned down the chance to buy it, perhaps because it was just too similar to the distributor’s Little Miss Sunshine — quirky family comedy, Southwestern setting, Alan Arkin as a blunt-talking father figure, that word in the title. Fortunately, British indie HanWay has picked it up, though it doesn’t appear to have a release date yet. Still, you can watch the engaging trailer, featuring Amy Adams and Emily Blunt as sisters (genius casting already) who start their own crime-scene cleanup business. I’ll watch Adams in anything, but it’s nice to see her play flawed and frazzled for a change after princess-y roles in Enchanted and Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day. Check out the clip below. (Warning: Some NSFW language.)

Looks good – and Steve Zahn is a bonus. I’ll probably add it to my Netflix queue (hey, high praise from me – I’ve only seen 2 movies in the theater this year).
I saw this movie at a test screening a year or so ago and it just died with the audience, so I’m not the least bit surprised that it has had trouble finding distribution. It’s all premise and mediocre execution, and the results are a whole lot more morose than the trailer lets on. Among its many problems, the usually reliable Amy Adams and Emily Blunt are not remotely believable as sisters.
I saw it at Sundance and I was really charmed by it. I was sad to hear that it hadn’t gotten distribution but I guess not entirely surprised. I think it’s a good movie, though. One thing I liked was that in the Q&A with the director, someone asked the Alan Arkin question, and she said “if you get a shot at Alan Arkin, you take it”–and that made perfect sense to me!
ps, I also agree with Whitney’s take that it was a refreshing change to see a women-centric movie that ISN’T “The Women” or otherwise still centered around men. Female director, too, and I think it was one of her first pictures, so I give points for that, too–not all new directors do as well.
I’d like to see this movie.
