Popularity is a state of mind. The ghost of Ferris Bueller haunts Charlie Bartlett. In John Hughes' classic comedy, a wily principal (Robert Downey Jr) chases a clever student all over Chicago. In editor-turned-director Jon Poll's darker-hued enterprise, the hero of the title (Anton Yelchin) gets kicked out of private school for selling fake IDs, so his heavily-medicated mother (Hope Davis) transfers her son to a public institution. Looking like a junior stockbroker in navy blazer and attaché case, he turns into a bully piñata, until he joins forces with surly dealer Murphey (Tyler Hilton) to sell prescription medication and split the profits.
