Starring: Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Ed Harris, Paul Bettany
Director: Ron Howard
This weekend I rented the award winning “A Beautiful Mind. This movie portrays, better than any movie before it, the thin line between genius and madness. It stars Russell Crowe as the brilliant, groundbreaking mathematician, John Nash. This movie is based on the true story, of Nash, who has possibly the greatest mind of his time. The movie chronicle’s Nash’s rise to genius, his time as a Princeton graduate student, his spiral to madness and his road back. I really can’t say too much more without giving the whole movie away. This movie is too good to disrespect it like that.
A Beautiful mind is, without a doubt, one of the best movies I have seen. Maybe, and this is big, the best movie I have ever seen!!!
It took a well-deserved ‘Best Picture’, along with three others, including one for Jennifer Connelly, who was amazing and earned her ‘Best Actress’ award. Russell Crowe was robbed, but I guess since they had just given it to him the year before for Gladiator, they thought it was someone else’s turn (Denzel Washington for Training Day). If you have not seen this movie yet, go buy it!!
