Smart People

Carrie and I saw Smart People. It was good. Ellen Page is an excellent actress! Carrie--she's 21!! We were debating her age. She's been in a lot of movies and TV. I hadn't heard of her till Juno though.
Smart People is about a college professor (Dennis Quaid) who is dealing with the loss of his wife, his family, and his arrogant personality. Ellen Page is the super smart but unsocialized, lonely daughter. Thomas Haden Church plays Dennis Quaid's adopted brother. Very quirky and interesting character...wiser than his family gives him credit for.
Sarah Jessica Parker rounds out the group of actors as the doctor who treats the professor and ends up in a trying relationship with him.
