	A Beautiful Mind
		A Beautiful Mind, Ron Howard's film based on a biography of mathematician John Nash, is carried by a tour de force performance by Russell Crowe.
		And, too, as is almost inevitable in a film of this type, A Beautiful Mind tips into sentimentality rather than sustaining a dryness that would have commanded more respect, and, one imagines, would have been more in keeping with John Nash's outlook.
		The film chronicles Nash's arrival at Princeton where mathematics students were indoctrinated in the importance of their work for national defense; it's the post-World War II years when the cold war with the Soviets was heating up and competition for scientific superiority was an American preoccupation.

	SPLICEDwire "A Beautiful Mind" review (2001) Ron Howard, Russell Crowe, Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly
		Yet Ron Howard's "A Beautiful Mind" is the fifth film in as many years focused on an off-kilter arithmetic genius -- and each one of them has been mesmerizing in its own way.
		But what it lacks in ingenuity, "A Beautiful Mind" makes up for in superb performances, potent emotions and graceful, emblematic (if safe and conventional) filmmaking.
		A confident, brainy beauty taking his class, she is attracted to him because he's the polar opposite of the average man. They turn each other on intellectually, and Crowe and Connelly have an affecting chemistry together, which is the one touchstone in Nash's life when his mind begins to unravel.

	DVD Verdict Review - A Beautiful Mind
		A Beautiful Mind is based on the life of John Nash, a Nobel Prize winning mathematician who battled with the debilitating mental illness schizophrenia.
		A Beautiful Mind is far from perfect, and I can name at least five or six movies from 2001 I'd preferred to have won Best Picture, but it's worth seeing for its fine acting and its accurate and balanced portrayal of schizophrenia.
		A Beautiful Mind is both served and disserved by his talents.

	CNN.com - Review: 'Beautiful Mind' is intense - December 21, 2001
		Despite the "Hollywoodization" of Nash's personal life, "A Beautiful Mind" is a thoughtful, provocative film about human frailties and human strength.
		"A Beautiful Mind" is a story about survival, chronicling Nash's journey from merely possessing a beautiful mind to developing a beautiful heart as well.
		But in the hands of director Ron Howard ("Apollo 13," 1995), screenwriter Akiva Goldsman ("The Client," 1994), and Academy Award winner Russell Crowe ("Gladiator," 2000), "A Beautiful Mind" is an intensely human drama revolving around the grand themes of great triumph over intense adversity and the power of unwavering love.

	Review: Beautiful Mind, A
		A Beautiful Mind may have been developed to be a crowd-pleaser as well as a tear-jerker, but genuine craft is evident in the way the pieces were assembled.
		A Beautiful Mind is a beautifully written, effectively acted, and meticulously crafted effort that is likely to remind many viewers of a simple axiom: a movie doesn't have to be groundbreaking to be compelling.
		A Beautiful Mind purports to tell the true story of Professor John Nash (Russell Crowe), but, while the gross facts may be accurate, one must expect embellishment of the details.

	Guardian Unlimited Film Reviews A Beautiful Mind
		A Beautiful Mind's view of schizophrenia subscribes unhesitatingly to the Stephen Hawking idea of disability: it is all right as long as it betokens some great mental or spiritual superiority.
		As portrayed by Russell Crowe, Nash may be a hollow-eyed, unshaven, gibbering, briefcase-hugging, equation-chalking nutter, but by golly he's a red-blooded heterosexual nutter, with a beautiful wife played by Jennifer Connelly.
		It is also a gruesome example of the lie-opic, or lie-ography, in that it coyly excises the gay episodes in the real Nash's life - in particular his arrest for importuning in a public lavatory.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment "A Beautiful Mind"
		"A Beautiful Mind" is a film for everyone who longs to see Russell Crowe in "Flowers for Algernon." It's a tortured-genius movie, and Crowe lives down to the conception with a performance that is possibly the biggest load of hooey to stink up the screen this year.
		In her biography of Nash (also titled "A Beautiful Mind") Sylvia Nasar relates that as a first-year grad student at Princeton, he was coming up with a series of complex and important mathematical ideas.
		There's no way of knowing what goes on in the mind of a genius, and it's damnably hard to find a way to make sense of a schizophrenic's view of the world.

	A Beautiful Mind
		The humor of his rough-edged socializing and courting make a much more interesting film than that which "Beautiful Mind" actually becomes...
		Then, dabbling with a mostly fresh and original romance (though a hokie starlit scene seeps in), "Beautiful Mind" begins settling into the psychological thriller it eventually decides to be.
		Somewhat socially undeveloped, with little time for small talk, he speaks his beautiful mind directly, indulging in effectively jagged sarcasm towards the local favored scholar.

	A BEAUTIFUL MIND
		A BEAUTIFUL MIND is probably not the most accurate portrayal of paranoid schizophrenia, but it is a film that changes your perception of those coping with it.
		His portrayal as a mathematical genius with a brilliant, yet tortured mind grabs onto your heart from the first frame and refuses to let go.
		We have been living in Nash's mind, where some things are real and others figments of his disease.

	CNN.com - 'A Beautiful Mind' dominates Golden Globes - January 21, 2002
		BEVERLY HILLS, California (CNN) -- It was a beautiful night at the Golden Globe Awards for "A Beautiful Mind," as the film won best drama, best actor, best supporting actress and best screenplay at the 59th annual edition of the laid-back Hollywood lovefest.
		She called "Mind" "a beautiful love story" and said that while she regretted that "certain things were omitted for creative reasons" from New York Times reporter Sylvia Nasar's book of the same name, "the Nashes are happy with it," and that satisfied her.
		Connelly, who seemed genuinely surprised to be holding the supporting actress trophy in her hand for her work in "A Beautiful Mind," professed that "I am not used to this at all." Indeed, she'd only starred in smaller, artier pics like "Pollock" and "Requiem for a Dream."

	A Beautiful Mind: Cinephiles Movie Review
		A Beautiful Mind successfully lures the viewer into the mind of a character who is portrayed as defining everything in his world in mathematical terms; it does so by offering visual representations that suggest his mental patterns.
		Nevertheless, A Beautiful Mind successfully envelopes the viewer in the character's almost imperceptible delusions as it subtly integrates the character's schizophrenic state to plot narration.
		Yet the film's most intriguing attempt may be enjoyed in a scene where Nash astonishingly manages to grasp a momentary lapse of reason within his profound madness and finds a logical means by which to overcome his mental disease and prove his extraordinary intelligence.

	Filmspiegel - Kritik - Beautiful Mind, A
		Wie jedoch andererseits die formalen Mittel des Kinos genutzt werden, um das wenig erschöpfte Thema von Schizophrenie und Paranoia für den Mainstream aufzubereiten, das lässt aus "A Beautiful Mind" trotz aller Konvention und sentimentaler Tendenz noch einen guten Film werden.
		Appelliert wird dabei weniger an Verstand als an Gefühl, vor allem an das der Oscarjuroren - mit Erfolg, "A Beautiful Mind" ist gleich mit acht Nominierungen überschüttet worden.
		So wirkt die Biographie über den heute noch lebenden, 73-jährigen Mathematiker John Nash, der jahrzehntelang gegen schizophrene Paranoia kämpfte, als berechnendes Oscarvehikel: Regisseur Ron Howard ist nach dem letztjährigen Weihnachtsschlager "The Grinch" gerade in den USA außerordentlich populär, Russell Crowe seit seinem Triumph mit "Gladiator" gleich auf die zweite Trophäe in Folge scharf.

	Astrology Software for Research - A Beautiful Mind - John Nash, Jr. - astrology chart
		John Nash's story was dramatized in the movie "A Beautiful Mind," directed by Ron Howard and starring Russell Crowe (born 04/07/1964), nominated for the best film of 2001.
		The biography by Sylvia Nasar is less romanticized, portraying him as an anti-Semite, a poor father and a violent man. Nasar refers to his mind as beautiful, not the man.
		Your quick, agile mind usually has no problem steering a correct path through the mountains of new and exciting information that you deal with as a normal part of your routine.

	Beautiful Creatures - Rachel Weisz, Susan Lynch
		I don't mind seeing a film stating that women are perpetual victims of the unsalvageable male psyche, but it is a little irritating to see a movie insinuating that beautiful woman actually suffer more because of their looks.
		Considering that "Beautiful Creatures" was written and directed by men, it's hard to tell whether this film is really a proto-feminist statement, or a Russ Meyer style ploy to hang out with cute girls.
		Though I found the scenery of Glasgow to be rather mundane compared to Scotland's other "big" city, Edinburgh, "Beautiful Creatures" made me realize that it's unique enough to have a recognizable feel that the film does a good job of capturing.

	Film & TV: Pink is for Girls (Weekly Alibi . 03-02-98)
		But the film does posit an alternative, one that European gay cinema seems to be embracing (last year's Brit flick Beautiful Thing comes to mind)--that the working class is significantly more tolerant of sexual differences than the status-paranoid middle class.
		The film easily brings to mind Tim Burton's 1990 film, Edward Scissorhands, as both films capture the horror and kitschy beauty of two-faced suburbia.
		In one of the film's early scenes, Ludovic is dancing with his mother, and as she holds him, the camera stops to slowly take in the scene.

		Like so many prodigy movies, Proof treads heavily on the line between genius and madness, unsubtly wondering how much of each the daughter has inherited from her father's once beautiful mind.
		(Both the play and the film completely elide the content of the solution.) Catherine claims it's her work; Hal and Claire are skeptical, and Catherine in turn can't prove she wrote the proof.
		Though wary of these two interlopers, Catherine eventually lets her guard down and shares with them a notebook in her father's desk drawer that contains a mind-bending and enormously complex discovery in the field of prime numbers.
