This month’s movie was the Biopic on John Nash “A Beautiful Mind” from 2001 starring Russell Crowe as John Nash.
How would one describe this movie? An emotionally driven film showing how dangerous one’s mind can be and how sometimes the person you can’t always trust is yourself.
What exactly is the plot of the movie? A mathematical genius, John Nash (Russell Crowe) made an astonishing discovery early in his career and stood on the brink of international acclaim. But the handsome and arrogant Nash soon found himself on a harrowing journey of self-discovery.

Personal Feelings: This film was hard to watch, not to say it is bad, but the showings of how paranoid schizophrenia was diagnosed at the time and how scared he became to not even trust his own thoughts made it an emotionally difficult watch for me.
