"A Beautiful Mind"
WHen I watched "A Beautiful Mind", I was at first confused. John Nash appeared to be a somewhat normal man. He did seem a little disoriented and lacked a certain degree of motivation. He was attending Princeton University and having a hard time publishing any work that he did. He was in danger of not getting into the Mathematics program. As the movie went on and he was out of school, it became more interesting. He appeared to be more motivated and dedicated to his work and research. When it appeared that he was working undercover for the goverment, I really thought it was true. His wife suspected something was wrong. He was saying things that did not make sense and acting paranoid. At first she believed him. Then it became apparent that something was wrong. His wife called the doctor, and John was taken to a mental hospital where they diagnosed him as schizophrenic. It was amazing to see the turn of events. But, it was also sad because he was a brilliant man. To see him struggle was hard. He was frustrated because he could not take care of his wife and their new baby. He was upset because he could not be a better man because of the medication. But I soon found my self admiring this man. He stopped taking his medication, which is not smart. I could understand why though. The desire to be a better man outweighed the desire to be sane. It was incredible the way he was able to block out his personalities, and become a functioning member of society. When he won the Nobel Prize, I found myself in tears because the progress he made was remarkable. He was teaching and living a relatively normal life. To see him admired by his peers was wonderful. This is a wonderful movie about a truly remarkable man.
