This week we review the 2001 American biographical drama film A Beautiful Mind  about the mathematician John Nash, a Nobel Laureate in Economics, played by Russell Crowe. The film is directed by Ron Howard. In addition to Crowe, the film's cast features Ed Harris, Jennifer Connelly, Paul Bettany, Adam Goldberg, Judd Hirsch, Josh Lucas, Anthony Rapp, and Christopher Plummer in supporting roles. The story begins in Nash's days as a brilliant but asocial mathematics graduate student at Princeton University. After Nash accepts secretive work in cryptography, he becomes liable to a larger conspiracy and begins to question his reality. The Aussie finds it unable to answer a simple question at the start of the podcast and that descends into another heated debate about risk v reward. Spoiler alert on this one - if you haven not seen it. Watch then listen for this one.   We discuss Russell Crowes acting - the Scotsman is not happy with his performance in the first half and we work out why. We have an interesting conversation about mental health and Electro Convulsive Therapy. "Mental health is the most undiagnosed area of medicine" says the Aussie, finally bringing a moderate level of intelligence to the podcast this week (you can tell who writes these blurbs) Tune in and let us know what you think of the podcast and please hit the subscribe button as it helps others find us.
