A Beautiful Mind is a life story on John Forbes Nash jr. played by Russel Crove. Nash just so happens to be a mathematical genius. Nash creates the `Game Theory' witch later changes the entire setup of the economic system. John is very antisocial and does not enjoy talking to people. Somehow makes a strong relationship and falls in love with a MIT student named Alicia. John is diagnosed with schizophrenia. He finds himself on a painful journey of self-discovery. After many years of struggling he over comes his mental problem. Late in his life, Nash receives the Noble Prize.
This was a very well done movie. When I started to watch it, I felt lost for the first part of the movie. The movie did not make a whole lot of sense. But if you stick with the movie, you will find out why the first 45 minutes seemed so strange. Actually the first part of the movie is very well done. It is most definitely a great movie to watch.
I believe that this extraordinary film was nominated for the best picture academy award because the story was about Nash's life through his own eyes. Not a story told from his wife's eyes or close friends. Ron Howard did a great job showing what Nash was feeling, seeing, hearing, and imagining. His performance as John Nash was outstanding. I think everyone should see this movie. I really enjoyed it and I hope you do also. In conclusion, I would recommend this movie to people who enjoy watching drama.
