SMILE!! You did well at the box office this weekend
The marketing for the movie was brilliant, with smiling people gracing baseball games and public locations for the past two weeks. Nice move!

In that movie, what followed was a sexually transmitted disease and bad reputation. In this film, it is mental illness. We cloud it and hide it with a smile.
I am not sure if the film makers went for a deeper meaning than what we got, but it sure felt like something much more meaningful was hiding under the surface.
