Destellos de genio (2008)
Cuando Robert Kearns se entera de que todos los coches vienen equipados con un sistema de limpieza que él inventó y patentó, pero que no consiguió vender, interpone una demanda contra la industria del automóvil por apropiación indebida. Los Kearns son la típica familia americana de los años sesenta que vive a su manera el sueño americano: Bob, profesor universitario, se casó con Phyllis y tuvieron seis hijos antes de cumplir los cuarenta. Con el invento de Bob, los Kearns creyeron que podrían mejorar su situación económica, pero sus esperanzas se malograron. Cuando Bob emprendió una larga batalla legal contra los magnates del automóvil y empezó a recibir amenazas, se convirtió en un hombre dispuesto a demostrar que lo justo era que el trabajo de toda una vida fuera reconocido por quienes se benefician de él.
