A Beautiful Mind.
 
Hi Guys,
I�ve just watch one of the best movies I�ve seen in� I can�t remember. I watch with a friend but he didn�t have much to say�� just sat in the corner and moped. Joke. Russell Crow and Jennifer Connelly. He took the part of a mathematical genius (Nobel prize winner John Nash) who had paranoid schizophrenia and she, the part of his wife. I was a bit sceptical at first but wow I thought it was great. Thought I�d share that bit of useless info with you before I hit the sack.
Good night. Sleep tight.

That is such a beautiful film, I loved it and cried at the same time.
Think, to be such a genius and live in the twilight zone of what is real and what
is fantasy. How hard that must be.

Another beautiful film about identities and more is Awakenings.
People think that just because people have lost the ability to move
and speak, that they have no past, no personality.
This is often the case in nursing homes and old age homes.

In this film, they discover a drug that gives the patients mobility
and speech again. The care takers at this home suddenly realize
they work with real human beings with personalities and learn to love
them as human beings.
I won�t tell more - but see it when you can - another great film!
