Cinematical Says: "The feature-film debut of award-winning commercial director Noam Murro, 'Smart People''s warm and winning script, by novelist Mark Poirier, is funny, yet never forced; rich, but always real." One of Sundance's 2008 Best and Most Buzzworthy films.

Starring: Dennis Quaid, Sarah Jessica Parker, Thomas Haden Church, Ellen Page....

Professor Lawrence Wetherhold (Dennis Quaid) might be imperiously brilliant, monumentally self-possessed and an intellectual giant -- but when it comes to solving the conundrums of love and family, he's as downright flummoxed as the next guy.

Our post movie meet-up location will be at the Lone Star Steakhouse & Saloon. We have reservations at 7:30. See map and directions at http://maps.google.co....

    does the movie start AT 4:30 or is that just the time we are meeting?

Who attended?

    •  The movie was so..so It was great to meet the people who went everyone was very nice! 
    •  Movie started a little ragged, but the dialogue was good. Acting was good, just found the family a little too wildly diverse - to really care about any of the characters. Overall not bad. Good thing the company I was keeping was terrific. So the evening was a four star delight! 
    •  Movie was okay. But the company and dinner were great. 
    •  dinner was good - movie was smart writing 
    •  I enjoyed the whole experience....the movie, meeting people and dinner after. 
    •  Didn't really care for the movie. Dennis did a great job in his part, but I didn't like his character. Thought it might be more of a romantic comedy. Oh, well, better luck with a movie next time. 
    •  it was verrrrrrrrrrrry "smart". great characters--good casting!
