Brilliant Crowe

Rating: 10/10 (28 April 2003)

This movie is a true story about Dr. John F. Nash, Jr. What is remarkable about Dr. Nash, besides him being a mathematical genius, nobel laureate, and Fields Medal Recipient, is that he also suffers, unbeknownst to him, from "paranoid schizophrenia."
Mr. Crowe does an exceptional job of acting as the tormented Dr. Nash, a man who is remarkable at recognizing patterns. In order to understand the scale to which Mr. Crowe can act one should first see "GLADIATOR" and then "A Beautiful Mind." Having seen both and not recognizing Mr. Crowe in the later makes his ability as an actor stand out above anyone in current residence at Hollywood. 10/10
