You misunderstand the movie.

Emotion is, indeed, allowed. "Prosium" as it's called in the movie merely curbs emotion. They still feel, and they still have desire, and want to earn a career, but they never feel happy and they never feel sad. By taking this drug, they remove all <I>extremes</I> of emotion, not every emotion.

Another thing I should point out... Taye Diggs OBVIOUSLY did not mean that smile. It's one thing to smile, and be warm and mean it. In his case, it was a response to a stimulus, nothing more.

Have you ever smiled at someone you hate while you hated them?
