'The Departed' wins best picture - Yahoo! News

'The Departed' wins best picture - Yahoo! News: "'Little Miss Sunshine' also won the original screenplay Oscar for first-time screenwriter Michael Arndt.

The film follows a ghastly but hilarious road trip by an emotionally messed-up family rushing to get their darling girl (10-year-old supporting-actress nominee Abigail Breslin) to her beauty pageant.

'When I was a kid, my family drove 600 miles in a VW bus with a broken clutch,' Arndt said, describing a road trip that mirrored the one in the film. 'It ended up being one of the funnest things we did together.'"
