Product Details:
Smart People is the story of Lawrence Wetherhold (Dennis Quaid, Far From Heaven), a widowed, imperiously brilliant, and self-absorbed literature professor who has alienated his son (Ashton Holmes, A History of Violence) and turned his teenage daughter (Ellen Page, Juno) into an acid-tongued, friendless over-achiever. After a hit to the head he falls for doctor, and former student, Janet (Sarah Jessica Parker, Sex And The City), at the same time, his ne’er-do-well brother (Thomas Haden Church, Sideways), unexpectedly shows up at his door, low on cash and needing a place to stay. The circumstances cause Lawrence to stir from his deep, freeze, with often comical, sometimes heartbreaking, consequences for himself and everyone around him. |
