Juno – $7.5 Million Budget

When Juno came out in 2008, viewers from all backgrounds fell in love with its realistic depiction of serious teenage problems. In the role of the title character, Ellen Page established herself in the field and shot to international stardom. The cast of the film also included Jennifer Garner, but only because she did not mind the low salary she was offered for the part. Despite everything, it made $231 million at the box office. It was also nominated for the Best Picture category.

Little Miss Sunshine – $8 Million Budget

This indie film followed a young girl who wanted to be a beauty queen. It is pretty impressive that it did so well at the box office even though the crew only had a small budget to work with. This film also gave Abigail Breslin her big break and allowed other stars the opportunity to show off their acting chops. It won two awards at the Oscars. We daresay it deserved its $100.5 million earnings! Good job, team.
