A Beautiful Mind (2001) is one of my favorite movies by the Academy Award winning director Ron Howard. This movie is about Dr. John Nash, a Nobel prize winning mathematician who is also diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia. In this biopic, Ron Howard beautifully recreates John Nash's delusions and manipulates reality using very basic, yet creative techniques of filmmaking. In this video, I analyze the various techniques of Ron Howard on how is able to put the audience in John Nash's shoes trying to make them feel the same delusions as him. Video analyzed, edited and narrated by Sharad Ananth. Thanks for watching. If you're impressed by my analysis, please like and share this video and also, subscribe my channel.
