* [[Children Raise You]]
* [[Disabled Character, Disabled Actor]]: Sean Penn, of course, is not really developmentally disabled — but many of the actors who play his housemates ''are''.
Line 20 ⟶ 16:
* [[Inspirationally Disadvantaged]]: Averted.
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: Sam for his daughter.
* [[Jukebox Musical]]: Sort of, as the soundtrack consists of cover versions of songs by [[The Beatles (band)|The Beatles]].
* [[Man Child]]
* [[Oscar Bait]]: As pointed out in ''[[Tropic Thunder]]'', Sean Penn tried just a little too hard with this one, not to mention the creative staff behind the movie.
