Kate's first film role... she was wonderful in it.Jackson & Walsh created a very sensitive and unusual take on a difficult subject, one which, in other hands, could have been repellent and exploitative.
A Beautiful Mind, OTOH, I found totally bogus, a superficial and calculating exercise in Hollywood crassness...in fact, the very epitome of what HC so deftly avoided.
Follow Ups:
Peter Jackson's flashes of surrealism in the film (i.e. Orson Welles) was great fun.
Very contrived. If they wanted to be true to his story, why excluded his homosexual affairs? Oh, I know why! I wouldn't have gone to see it!
