Lawrence was an English professor. being a widower, he was bitter and arrogant, uninterested in his students and children. his brother Chuck arrived one day to borrow money from him, which led him to stay while keeping Lawrence's daughter, Vanessa company. Vanessa was a brilliant child, overachieving yet remained unnoticed by her father. one day Lawrence suffered a seizure after falling off the fence, he was treated by one of his ex-students Janet and was not allowed to drive for 6 months. Chuck offered to drive, but when he failed to turn up one day, Janet drove Lawrence home where Vanessa highly disapproved.
looking uninteresting on the surface, Smart People (2008) was very bit funny and smart! the film was so in depth that it remained engaging until the very end. the combination of 3 awesome stars: Dennis Quaid, Ellen Page, and Sarah Jessica Parker, was simply wonderful! despite having almost no action scenes, the film was anything but dull. it had more than a few great laughs and moments so heartwarming, which made it stood out easily from the rest.
