Want to make a biographical film, but you don't think your subject is that interesting? Well, just make stuff up and throw it into the plot! John Nash's audio-hallucinations are too dull? Then make him have *visual* hallucinations that throw desks out of windows and have personal relationships with real people! Yes, that was all made up! Don't like the hispanicity of the woman he married? Make her Caucasian! There are many more such untrue aspects of this film. See the Wikipedia entry for this movie. One quote from Wikipedia: "The narrative of the film differs considerably from the events of Nash's life, as filmmakers made choices for the sense of the story. The film has been criticized for this aspect, but the filmmakers said they never intended a literal representation of his life." Oh, NOW they tell me. I wonder if the movie would have won as many awards if people had known that so much of it had never happened. I'll never trust another Ron Howard film.
