| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Expelled from yet another private school for his blossoming,
though illegal, entrepreneurial activities, wealthy teenager
Charlie Bartlett (Anton Yelchin) finds himself at regular
High School.
His smart, geeky appearance gets him a first day beating
from the school bully so his overly medicated mother (Hope
Davis) calls in the family psychiatrist to help him out. An
opportunity not to be missed, Charlie sets himself up as the
school agony aunt, dishing out advice and prescription drugs,
courtesy of the family shrink, from the school rest rooms.
His charm, charisma and access to medication soon starts
to win him new friends as well as the attentions of the principals
daughter, much to the annoyance of the Principal (Robert Downey
Jr.) a man battling his own demons in this cool, edgy comedy.
