About this movie

The Man Who Knew Infinity is the true story of a friendship that forever changed mathematics. In 1913, Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel), a self-taught Indian mathematics genius, traveled to Trinity College, Cambridge, where over the course of five years, he forged a bond with his mentor, the brilliant and eccentric professor, G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons), while fighting against prejudice to reveal his mathematic genius to the world.

Just finished watching it and it's a good movie. It's not so good a movie that comes close to honoring a man who might be the greatest on par with Newton and possible the best if only we humans had room for other races and minds open enough to accept what we can't grasp. I lament the loss in knowledge we probably missed out learning. Knowledge that might of saved humanity one day if only he had lived longer than 32 years. This is what prejudice and jealousy stole from us forever.

Similar in style to the Imitation Game. Beautiful cinematography and post production. You could pause any frame of this movie and get a stunning image. Wonderful story of man's true beauty and wonder in a troubled time.
