A Beautiful Mind

La storia

Il film si ispira alla vita di John Forbes Nash Jr. Di origini medio borghesi, Forbes nacque in una piccola città della Virginia occidentale il 13 giugno 1928 e, per oltre cinquant'anni è stato considerato un mito negli ambienti della ricerca matematica. Grazie al suo studio della teoria dei giochi, negli anni 50 diventò l'astro nascente della "nuova matematica". Poco a poco, vittima di una grave forma di schizofrenia, Nash sprofondò in un mondo tutto suo, convinto che le sue allucinazioni fossero realtà. Passò diversi anni in ospedali psichiatrici, ma durante la sua assenza, la teoria dei giochi acquistò un ruolo di importanza fondamentale nei campi dell'economia e degli affari. Nel 1994, Nash aveva riacquistato il pieno controllo della sua vita e ripreso le ricerche. In quello stesso anno venne insignito del Premio Nobel per l'economia.
