À propos de ce film

Driven by a clever script and fine performances, SMART PEOPLE is set in the land of academia, a place where both Lawrence and Vanessa have taken refuge and plunged themselves into as escape from the external world. In spite of their high IQs, both father and daughter are equally clueless when it comes to navigating relationships. This becomes obvious as Vanessa develops a line- blurring relationship with her uncle, and Lawrence stumbles in romancing his doctor. If Vanessa wants a shot at happiness and Lawrence wants to make things work in his love life, both will have to adopt new attitudes or risk further alienation. Starring Dennis Quaid, Sarah Jessica Parker, Ellen Page, and Thomas Hayden Church.

Notes et avis

An underrated movie that has been lost to time. The movie creates a warm environment that I find quite comforting. The story provides an interesting juxtaposition of young characters wanting to grow into their lives/dreams and adults who are trying to sort out their own. I love watching it during the holidays.
