This guy, Nash, going to an ivy league school should have been able to research possible causes of psychosis/delirium. Could he not suspect heavy metals such as lead, with his extensive training? The doctors refuse to detox patients? How hard is it for people to understand lead poisoning and the dangers of heavy metals? The doctors could have used heavy metal chelation. They could do it for the navy in the 1960's but for regular people no? Mr Nash should have had proper treatment, instead of them leaving him sick and calling it an awful illness. Then, glamorizing it as a Hollywood spectacle. Come on help these poor people.

This is a great movie. You are invested right from the start. What a great movie about the real world and how we can have the best in educational abilities,however, we also have a such thing as DNA. We can never quite under stand the complexities of our brain and how we transcend or how ones life unfold along this thing called life. Just keep you thinking and not something you have seen before. Great Movie

I have no idea how this won any awards. I assume there were no other decent movies made that year. It's a shame because I think all of the actors are fantastic at their craft.
