A Beautiful Mind, American biographical film, released in 2001, that told the story of American Nobel Prize winner John Nash, whose innovative work on game theory in mathematics was in many ways overshadowed by decades of mental illness. Parts of the film, which is mix largely on the campus of Princeton University against a backdrop of Cold War intrigue, are seen from Nash’s delusional perspective.

The movie begins in 1947 at Princeton, where Nash (played by Russell Crowe) has arrived as a graduate student, together with Martin Hansen (Josh Lucas), Richard Sol (Adam Goldberg), Ainsley (Jason Gray-Stanford), & Bender (Anthony Rapp). Nash is arrogant và dismissive of his classmates but gets along with his roommate Charles (Paul Bettany). Nash generally pursues his studies alone but, when Charles suggests that he take a break and go khổng lồ a bar, Nash agrees. At the bar, a discussion with his classmates as lớn the most successful way for them to lớn approach a group of women leads lớn Nash’s breakthrough paper on trò chơi theory.

Nash later receives an appointment lớn the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where Sol & Bender become his assistants. A few years later, he is asked lớn the Pentagon lớn decrypt coded Russian communications. His success impresses William Parcher (Ed Harris), a high-level agent in the Department of Defense. While teaching at MIT, Nash begins dating a student, Alicia (Jennifer Connelly). Parcher visits Nash lớn enlist him in a group of workers who scan newspapers & magazines to lớn find hidden Russian codes embedded in the text. Nash is khổng lồ leave deciphered codes in a secret drop box for Parcher. The clandestine work makes Nash nervous, but he is cheered when he reunites with his former roommate Charles. He marries Alicia soon thereafter. Some time later, Nash gets caught up in a gun battle between Parcher và several Russian agents. Terrified, he asks Parcher to be relieved of his assignment, but Parcher tells him that he would be killed if he were to lớn quit. While giving a lecture at Harvard University, Nash sees Charles in the audience but then spots Russian agents as well, và he flees.

Nash is captured, sedated, & sent to a psychiatric facility under the care of Dr. Rosen (Christopher Plummer). Dr. Rosen tells Alicia that Nash suffers from schizophrenia và that Parcher and Charles exist only in Nash’s mind. Alicia is not convinced until she sees the inside of Nash’s office & also finds the drop box, which is full of unopened missives. Nash receives therapy, và Nash, Alicia, & their son move to Princeton. The medication makes Nash lethargic, however, and eventually he stops taking his pills. After he knocks Alicia lớn the ground when Parcher urges him lớn kill her, he & Alicia decide lớn find a way lớn live with his illness. After that, although Nash continues khổng lồ see Parcher and Charles, he no longer interacts with them. Eventually, he is able lớn return to teaching, & in 1994 he receives the Nobel Prize.

A Beautiful Mind was criticized by some viewers for glossing over some of the darker elements of Nash’s life story, including the facts that Nash fathered a child with a different woman before marrying Alicia và that he was arrested in 1954 for indecent exposure. The mathematician’s symptoms in fact did not begin until 1959, after he had written his dissertation. Although the film depicted Nash’s hallucinations as largely visual, Nash himself reported that his delusions were mostly auditory and mental. The screenwriter, Akiva Goldsman, conceived of the visual hallucinations as a method for giving the viewer the sensation of experiencing delusions. Though in reality Nash apparently had a remission of his mental illness, in the movie the character says that he is taking a newer medicine. This was a choice made by the director in order not to give the impression that abandoning medication was an appropriate method of dealing with schizophrenia.
