We first meet John Nash at Princeton University in 1947 as a mathematician with social problems due to paranoid schizophrenia. He's brilliant and doesn't hold back on expressing the capacity and merits of his brain to his peers. As a matter of fact he is already so above the institutional standards that he chooses to skip classes.

He doesn't have much luck with women either and found himself being slapped in the face all too often with his blunt, "why don't we skip to the sex" line.

Still, he understand his personal condition, so he has as little contact with people as possible, and spends most of his time in his dorm room searching for a discovery of a new theory. He is basically a smart, shy jerk with a wry sense of humour.

Shortly after receiving recognition for his theories at Princeton, he becomes a professor at the prestigious school of MIT and beg

Could he have done the amazing things he did without all the ghosts and devils that filled his brain? As brilliant as he was, would he have accomplished much of the things he did if the chemicals in his brain had been in balance?

ins teaching. He attracts the attention of one of his physic students, Alicia Larde, (played by Jennifer Connelly) and she finds Nash's eccentricities charming and asks him out to dinner. By 1957 the two were married. But at about the same time he meets his future wife, he also meets the compelling government agent (Ed Harris) who recruits the professor to break codes for the Department of Defence.

True love is one of the foundations of this film. The Nash's love lasted over 40 years against some incredible odds. How can you compete with that?

Despite Russel Crowe's recent huge roles in Gladiator and Proof of Life, he easily slides into the part of the vulnerable nerd. At first you have some doubt about the film from seeing such a muscle man as a geek and because his physique just doesn't match the habits of Nash, but then his internal dilemmas are more than convincing. This unbelievable performance reminds of his practically spotless work in The Insider. Both roles require an everyman
