Review: A Beautiful Mind

Director: Ron Howard

Starring: Russell Crowe, Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly

Year: 2001

Genre: Drama

Rated: PG-13

Length: 135 min.

IMDB Summary: After a brilliant but asocial mathematician accepts secret work in cryptography, his life takes a turn to the nightmarish.

Review:
This film brilliantly portrays the life and experiences of John Nash, a Nobel Laureate in Economics and a schizophrenic. The twists and the turns in the plot leave the viewer breathless as Nash plunges into a myriad of lies and secrets. Gritty and intense, A Beautiful Mind pays tribute to the life and achievements of John Nash while, at the same time, encouraging viewers to question their preconceptions about psychological disorders.

For Parents:
Some sexual innuendo, language and violence

My Rating:
*****
