Cricital Look: SMART PEOPLE
 Fresh off its strong reviews at Sundance, Critics Rant would like to bring you a first look at Miramax’s latest smart-family-with-issues flick, SMART PEOPLE.
The film stars Dennis Quaid as an aging intellectual professor who suffers a stroke. Sarah Jessica Parker plays the nurse who takes a shine to the socially inept prof; Thomas Hayden Church is the prof’s adopted, slacker brother and Oscar-nominee Ellen Page plays the prof’s over-achiever daughter.
SMART PEOPLE is basicaly THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS meets SIDEWAYS. And I hated both those flicks. I prefer my screwed-up intellectual flicks to be more dark and depressing a la THE SQUID AND THE WHALE. How about you? Take a look at the trailer for SMART PEOPLE and rant back to us about what you think.
