A Beautiful Mind


 John Nash is very brilliant in mathematics. He enters to the Princeton University and he meets his roommate Charles, which becomes his friend with the pass of the time.
The years pass, and John was invited to the Pentagon, an enemy telecommunication.  He is able to decipher a code mentally, so he started to look for patterns in magazines and newspapers because he thought there was a complot in the Soviet Union.
John was very obsessed to discover these hidden patterns and he started to believe he is followed when he delivers his results to a secret mailbox.
He fall in love with Alicia, a student for the Princeton University, and they get married.
Alicia discovers that John has schizophrenia when he tries to drown his daughter.  And she also discovers that his friend Charles, Marcee (the young niece of Charles) and Parcher (a mysterious supervisor) only exist on Johns mind.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder, where you imagine that people is against you and tries to attack you; or, like in John’s case, you think that some people exist when they’re only in your mind.
At the end of the movie, you understand that John can control de schizophrenia and live his life not like a normal man, but more normal than was he expecting.
