From the heights of notoriety to the depths of depravity, John Forbes Nash Jr. experiences it all. As a brilliant but socially awkward mathematician, he made a groundbreaking discovery early in his career and stands on the brink of international acclaim.

His life takes a nightmarish turn and he soon finds himself on a painful and harrowing journey of self-discovery.

Memorable quotes from A Beautiful Mind

"There has to be a mathematical explanation for how bad your tie is."
"Find a truly original idea. It is the only way I will ever distinguish myself. It is the only way I will ever…matter."
"Classes will dull your mind, destroy the potential for authentic creativity."
"I find you very attractive. Your aggressive moves towards me indicates that you feel the same way. However, ritual requires that we engage in a number of platonic activities before we have sex. I am proceeding with those activities when, in point of actual fact, all I really want to do is have intercourse with you as soon as possible. You going to slap me now?"
"There's no point in being nuts if you can't have a little fun."
"Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart."
Helinger
"Mathematicians won the war. Mathematicians broke the Japanese codes, and built the A-bomb. Mathematicians … like you. The stated goal of the Soviets is global Communism. In medicine or economics, in technology or space, battle lines are being drawn. To triumph, we need results. Publishable, applicable results. Now, who among you will be the next Morse? The next Einstein? Who among you will be the vanguard of democracy, freedom, and discovery? Today, we bequeath America's future into your able hands. Welcome to Princeton, gentlemen."
Dr. Rosen
"Imagine if you suddenly learned that the people, the places, the moments most important to you were not gone, not dead, but worse, had never been. What kind of hell would that be?"
