MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS It is about a brilliant mathematician whose life changes after he begins to work in crypt analysis. When John Nash was asked by the government to decode a message, he thought it was a dream of a lifetime. Little did he know that the dream would soon turn into a nightmare.
Russell Crowe gives a dynamic performance as John Nash. Ron Howard has successfully managed to take the audience into the realm of John Nash's reality. Later as John's life begins to unravel the audience is just as shocked as John when he discovers the truth. Through it all, his wife Alicia, remains his steady rock as the rest of his world disintegrates around him. Jennifer Connelly gives an award winning performance as Alicia.
When Alicia drives to where John has been making drops of classified information, the camera opens with a medium shot of Alicia through the car window, which is wet with rain. The rain symbolizes the sorrow she feels as her world falls apart.
Through the rest of the movie we witness as John and Alicia go through various struggles to get John through the nightmare his world has become. With the support of Alicia, John comes through the nightmare and when he is later honored, he tells Alicia that it is all because of her. This is definitely a must see movie. It's not only entertainment, it will leave you with something to think about long after the movie ends.
