A Beautiful Mind
Russell Crowe stars as John Forbes Nash Jr., who we meet as he arrives to Princeton University in 1947, a poor young man whose remarkable skills in mathematics won him a scholarship.He doesn't really fit in with the other students though, and he has no interest in actually going to classes.He just wants to find a truly original theory, to think of something that will matter.Something that will make him matter.He does calculate some brilliant stuff, which opens up opportunities for him, all the way to a code breaking gig at the Pentagon, but something is tearing him loose : schizophrenia.Combined with Cold War-era conspiracy theories paranoia, this might make him go totally insane.All he's got left is his caring wife Alicia(Jennifer Connelly), and even she is tempted to give up on him.It's taken me a while to process my feelings on Ron Howard's latest film, as they're kind of confused.In short, I thought the first act was mediocre, then the film did something I perceived as a cheat, but finally it redeemed itself in its powerful last hour.So how am I supposed to review the whole film, as I found its first half to be generic and maudlin, but by the end I was moved to tears? Well, let's start at the beginning, or the “Good Will Hunting” part.These early scenes aren't that bad, they're just bland and harmless.Nash is somehow interesting already, with subtle hints of personality troubles, but he's surrounded by walking clichés, like the snobbish daddy's boy(Josh Lucas), the wisecracking buddies, the kind old teacher, or a newer obligatory staple(see also : “Notting Hill”, “Undeclared”), the quirky British roommate(Paul Bettany).Plus, it's all so timid, a little joke here, a little touching moment there.Yawn.Another thing that bothered me was the seemingly random, unnatural pacing.It's the first day of the semester, then wham!, it's six months down the line, boom!, Nash's made his discovery, watch out!It's now five years later and he's called in to break some Soviet code.It gets even more frustrating when Nash starts teaching and Alicia, who's his student, catches his eye.It literally goes from 'what's your name' to 'I find you attractive' to 'will you marry me?' to 'you're pregnant?!' Meanwhile, Nash, is recruited by a Secretary of Defence agent(Ed Harris)who wants him to peruse periodicals to look for secret Communist codes.Come again? That's not all, there's tense dropouts, mysterious men in black, chases, shoot-outs.It makes little sense, and it's hardly all that interesting.I was ready to pan the film.Oh, but wait a second there, that's only the first hour or so of the film, before what I called the big cheat.Don't worry, I'm not gonna spoil it.Let's just say that the film reveals that it isn't really concerned with code cracking or Nash' love life;“A Beautiful Mind” is ultimately about one man's struggle to retain his sanity, to sort out his mind at once capable of genius and madness.Once the narrative settles on this, the film becomes more and more engrossing.It remains conventional in form as Ron Howard, hardly a daring filmmaker, can't help but go for melodrama and little bittersweet comic beats, or something as predictable and schmaltzy as the “pen scene”.But the screenplay by Akiva Goldsman, adapting the Sylvia Nasar novel, presents us with a very interesting, complex character who hits bottom, degrading into the kind of fidgety old weirdo kids mock on the
street.This makes his eventual getting back on his feet oh so touching, and I don't think there was a dry eye in the room during the final scene.It takes many people to make a film, and it's usually unfair to single out an individual as being most responsible for its success, but in this particular case, I feel it's obvious that this is Russell Crowe's movie.Writer Goldsman did, after all, commit “Batman & Robin”, and as mentioned, Howard has a tendency to lay things too thick, overdoing each moment as if he's trying to show off to the Academy(but oooooooh, that's not his intent, natch).Fortunately, he's at least made one brilliant decision in casting Russell Crowe, who brings depth, pathos and humanity to his character.We see him age nearly fifty years in the film, and I was never thinking 'make-up', Crowe just seemed older in the way he held himself, spoke and appeared altogether.Likewise, with his schizophrenic behaviour, Crowe is not one to chew scenery and go over the top.This is a performance full of nuances and rough corners.His relationship with Paul Bettany and Ed Harris' characters lingers hauntingly in our minds, and even though it's underwritten, his screwed up romance with Jennifer Connelly is affecting.She herself is pretty good(and gorgeous), despite a false-sounding shrieking breakdown scene.Overall, I'd pretty much recommend “A Beautiful Mind”.There are quite a bit of things to dislike in what can be summed up as a tearjerker posing as a psychological thriller, but ultimately it did surprise me by making me cry, and Crowe's performance alone is worth the admission price.If he hadn't won the Best Actor Oscar last year, I'd say he's sure to get it now, and the movie itself will probably get noticed here and there as a reaction.Check it out.

A beautiful mind
A beautiful mind--a movie tells us a story about a mathematician, Nash who is involved in schizophrenia during his study but under his wife's help he gets rid of this disease and makes a great achievement in mathematics.And finally he becomes one of the Nobel Prize winners.Just in terms of this movie's plot, it is easy for us to understand and we can know more about the things happened to him.He is diligent and patient to his study.Not until his wife Alicia forces him to go to bed will he stop his study and work.It is his diligence and patience that have touched me when I saw this movie this week.Shouldn't I learn from Nash?
I can also learn something else from him.The movie's latter portion shows us that Nash is struggling against the roommate Charles, the little girl and the so called Defense Minister who are all imaginary people.But it also reflects his insistence and will.I want to say everything that once you are determined to do, as long as you persist to do and then you will be successful.Last but not least, the most important thing I want to share is the love between the couple.It does touch me.When the husband is out of his mind, the wife never fails him, and tries her best to help him
come into the normal life.Even sometimes Nash is like a child that can't do everything by himself.I remember the plot where Alicia sees that his husband can do little things on his own and think he may be well, so she let Nash look after their baby, but….But after that, Alicia doesn't resign him to fate.She comes to an agreement with her husband and Nash is determined to overcome the disease by himself.And finally under the help of his wife, he overcomes the disease and makes a great breakthrough.It is the love that works.

A Beautiful Mind
“A beautiful mind” is a documentary.It told a true story about a genius mathematician, John Nash, whose life suddenly took a turn when he was diagnosed with schizophrenia.And it won the 74th Oscars film awards.In 1947, John Nash joined Princeton University and studied mathematics, and in 1950, he got PHD after he wrote a Doctoral thesis which proved Adam Smith’s theory was not complete.This theory is what we called Nash equilibrium now.After that, he entered Wheeler Lab to continue his study.It seems that his future is bright, but you will never know what will happen in next second.He was diagnosed with schizophrenia at the most brilliant part in his life.You can imagine how serious it was when he was told that his friend Charles and his colleague Parcher were not real.With the help of his wife, he finally overcame his mental illness and won the Nobel Prize in 1994.I burst into tears when John stood on the podium and said ‘it is only in the mysterious equations of love that any logic or reasons can be found.I'm only here tonight because of you.You are the reason I am.You are all my reasons.’ It was his wife who supported him and helped him passed the most difficult time in his life.And it was their love that supported his wife to hold on and never gave up him.After seeing this film , I do believe that will and love is the greatest power in the world.

《美丽心灵》的生活哲理
《美丽心灵》就像一所好学校，足以开阔你的人生视野。——《丹佛邮报》
人生总该找到自己所热爱的东西，并为之奋斗。就像纳什与数学一样，他能从中找到无限的乐趣，在生活中处处留意到它影子，甚至为之疯狂。因为有喜爱的东西，生活才有意义和价值。不论是资质多高，或者平庸的人，他们都有自己的追求，即便是道德低下的人也是如此。这样至少表明确实活过，热爱过。
上天是公平的，没有人可以十全十美地占据人类所有的优点，在你得到某样特殊的资质时，另一方面你也可能失去某样与之平行的东西。有时候是你的某一资质弥补了你某种缺陷，而有时候则是你的那一缺陷铸就了你的才干。总之会有样东西与你得不到的互补，如果你够细心够知足地总结你的生活的话。纳什生性孤僻，不善与人交往，这可以说是缺点，但也因为这样的性格使他能够完全专注在博弈论的研究上，并取得重大的成果。所以，学会利用自身的充分条件做有益的事情是多么重要。一味地抱怨生活的不公，而不振作那才是最可悲的。有时候，我甚至认为一个人若自己不否定自己，哪怕别人认为自己是如何地不行，那都没关系，因为我是我自己的，我不在意别人多么不认可自己，就像一个人即使所有人都觉得他丑，只要他自己不嫌弃自己，那依然可以快乐，甚至可以感动别人。纳什的坦率让他受窘难堪，可总有人喜欢这样的品性，有的人爱你是因为你的美好的品行，而有的人则是爱你这个人本身，你的缺点也照单全收。
电影里让我触动很大的有纳什神奇缜密的大脑解码思维，原来除了思想一些生活琐事外，人脑竟还这般奇特，理性的逻辑思维远胜与感性思维，而这明显是异于常人的，纳什患上了妄想型精神分裂症，他常常是生活在幻象中，担惊受怕地生活着。天才的智慧优于一般人，而他的痛苦也过于一般人。此外电影里刻画的最多的便是纳什与艾丽西亚的爱情，而让我们记忆最深刻的便是纳什在诺贝尔奖致辞：“我一直以来都坚信数字，不管是方程还是逻辑都引导我们去思考。但是在如此追求了一生后，我问自己：“逻辑到底是什么？谁决定原由？”我的探索让我从形而下到形而上，最后到了妄想症，就这样来回走了一趟。在事业上我有了重大突破，在生命中我也找到了最重要的人：只有在这种神秘的爱情方程中，才能找到逻辑或原由来。今晚我能站在这儿全是你的功劳，你是我成功的因素，也是唯一的因素。谢谢你！”艾丽西亚面对纳什严重的精神分裂症，也被痛苦撕扯着，她想过要放弃，但她的责任、理智和爱心促使她坚守住这份感情，她相信奇迹会出现，所以她对纳什的支持、呵护、等候让纳什一点一点从疾病中慢慢清醒过来，就像他说的那样幻象中的人物时常会出现在他面前，可是现在他已经有足够的毅力不理会他们，把他们当做不能再见面的朋友。聪明和才智不能给人一切，唯有爱是良方。你可以拥有世界上的一切财富，但如果失去爱，那你依旧是贫穷的；你可以在物质上是贫穷的，有爱伴随那就是富足的。爱可能没办法用逻辑推断，但它真真实实地存在，且明明显显地起着效用。纳什幸运地遇到这样美好的妻子，陪伴他度过最难熬的日子，艾丽西亚也见证了她的爱所创造的奇
迹。一个天才的苦难的爱情故事感动了多少人，影片虽然并非完全属于小约翰.纳什的真实传记，但它确实一定程度为我们展示了纳什的生活传奇。人性的闪光点总不会因为环境的围困就失去它的魅力，相反，恰是越黑暗的光景里，真善美则更加散发出耀眼的光芒。
第五篇：美丽心灵 影评
《美丽心灵》影评
《美丽心灵》是一部关于一个真实的天才数学家的纪录片。影片的原型是著名数学家、博弈论大师、诺贝尔经济学奖获得者小约翰-福布斯-纳什。本影片记录了纳什从大学到后来获得诺贝尔奖的这一段艰辛曲折的历程。
1947年小约翰-福布斯-纳什进入普林斯顿大学学习并研究数学。这个“神秘的来自西弗吉尼亚的天才”并没有上预备班的经历，也没有遗产或富足的亲戚资助他进入“常春藤盟校”——但普林斯顿最具声誉的奖学金证明他确实属于普林斯顿这个团队。
这对纳什或是对普林斯顿来说是很不容易的。优雅的社会交际他根本不屑一顾，上课也提不起什么兴致。他整天沉迷着的只是一件事：寻找一个真正有创意的理论：博弈论。并获得别人的肯定。尽管他的教授试着让他遵循学校规章制度，老老实实地写论文，发表论文，但他深信寻找属属于自己的真正的原创理论才是他应该从事的事情。普林斯顿的数学系竞争十分激烈，纳什的一些同学也十分乐于看到纳什的失败，他们嘲笑他那副失败者狼狈不堪的样子。一次，纳什接受汉森的邀请下围棋，而由于他的过度自傲和自信，他失败了，这给了他不小的打击。但是，纳什的朋友们仍然十分容忍他，有意无意地怂恿他当个伟人。一个晚上他与一些同学在当地洒吧娱乐，当时他们对一个热情的金发碧眼女人的反应引发了他的灵感。当纳什观察着这些竞争对手时，常常在他脑海里酝酿的想法突然变得清晰起来。他随之撰写出了关于博奕论的论文----“竞争中的数学”----大胆地将现代
经济之父亚当-斯密的理论作出了不同的解释。这个已经被人们接受了150年的思想突然变得陈旧过时了，纳什的生活也从此发生了改变。
纳什在幻想中构建了一个室友查尔斯。在他与查尔斯的谈话中说道：“我不喜欢人们，人们也不喜欢我。“人们也不喜欢我”其实是“我不”
喜欢人们”的一种投射。纳什孤独、寂寞，害怕失败并希望得到人们的认可。查尔斯便充当了一个为他解除孤独、寂寞并不断地认可、鼓励他的人物。“查尔斯”这个幻想的人物说明了纳什在潜意识里希望拥有朋友，得到认可。在他与艾丽西娅相爱后，他的妄想中又出现了可爱的小女孩玛西。纳什对女性情感的一无所知使他在潜意识里渴望了解女性。
纳什后来获得了在麻省理工学院(MIT)进行研究和教学的工作，这可是一个众人觊觎的工作，但是他对这些并不满意。科学曾为美国在第二次世界大战中的获胜发挥了巨大的作用。现在，冷战盛行，纳什渴望在这场新的冲突中发挥自己的优势。1952年，在美苏对峙时，纳什破解了敌方的密码，为国防做出了贡献后，他渴望成功，希望有所作为的思想更加地加深了。于是他又幻想出一个国防部官员——威廉-帕切尔。威廉交给他一个“任务”，这个“任务”关系到15万人民的安危和国防安全。于是，纳什沉迷于破解报纸、杂志中的密码。在此，他的心灵深处的理想和欲望得到了满足。幻想中的人物往往与其本身有着冲突性。当纳什了解到了危险后想要退出该“任务”，但在威廉的威胁下，他一次次地妥协了。而这次的幻想也对他造成了巨大的身心
影响，直接导致了他后来被强制关进精神病院。
纳什在麻省理工学院工作的同时，全身心地投入到这个工作中。在这里，纳什受到了一种全新的挑战，但是这次的挑战却是来自光彩照人的艾丽西亚-拉迪一个物理系学生，这个迷人的物理系学生第一眼就看中了伟大的纳什博士的才气和帅气，于是主动地接近并成功使纳什迷上了她。她向纳什引入了一个从来没有认真考虑过的观念----爱情。
不久，纳什和艾丽西亚结婚了，但是他并没有摆脱自己幻想出来的世界，他的世界中依然有三个人物：查尔斯、马西、帕彻。而帕彻则是最不能让他安心的人物。他不能告诉艾丽西亚他正在为帕彻所从事的危险项目。这项工作稍有不慎泄了密，后果将不堪设想。纳什一直是悄悄地在干，他被这项工作深深地迷住了，并最终迷失在这些无法抵御的错觉中。经诊断，他得的是妄想型精神分裂症。
纳什的遭遇让艾丽西亚吓坏了，她挣扎在被毁天才的重压下。然而她又不愿意放弃她心爱的人，虽然这个心爱的人在不经意间就会做出伤害自己和孩子事来。随着每一天都似乎会给他们带来新的恐怖，这对令人羡慕的伴侣已失去了当初让人羡慕的份儿。但是艾丽西亚仍然在她爱着的男人身上发现了他的超凡魅力，这也是支撑她对他承诺的源泉所在。受到她那坚贞不渝的爱情和忠诚的感动，纳什最终决定与这场被认为是只能好转、无法治愈的疾病作斗争。尽管这疾病终身伴随着纳什，但在纳什决定抗争的那一刻，他已经决定将幻境中的人隔离起来，不再与之说话，不再有任何牵连，于是，他做到了潜心于
照顾孩子、家人和研究事业的旅程中。
谦卑的纳什目标很简单，但要实现这些目标却是难上加难。处在病魔的重压之下，他仍然被那令人兴奋的数学理论所驱使着，他决心寻找自己的恢复常态的方法。是通过意志的力量，他才一如既往地继续进行着他的工作，并于1994年获得了诺贝尔奖。与此同时，他在博奕论方面颇具前瞻性的工作成为20世纪最具影响力的理论，而纳什也成了一个不仅拥有美好情感，并具有美丽心灵的人。
