Must Watch: Smart People Trailer

Smart People is going to be the new hit indie comedy, at least I hope. I saw this surprisingly impressive comedy-drama at Sundance, and it's made it very high on my list as one of the best movies of the fest. The story is about a literature professor from Carnegie Mellon University named Lawrence Wetherhold, played by Dennis Quaid, who gets involved in a relationship (with Sarah Jessica Parker) and is dealing with his perfectionist daughter (Ellen Page) and jobless brother (Thomas Haden Church). It is a very smart comedy (no pun intended) based off of a fantastic script, and the best part - Ellen Page is back again with another fantastic performance. You won't want to miss this.
