although it appears that both Nash and Edward Norton's character are under the hallucinations caused by their mental conditions, there's a slight difference. Nash's condition is natural. And I think what he accomplished is even bigger than the man himself. But that won't make a good mainstream movie. What Norton's character suffers is not so much schitzophrenia, but rather a mental condition influenced by the social condition; in the similar manner, that it affects the character of American Beauty. Socially, people were wealthy, happy, fat, and bored. And it's boredom that trickes down to their mentality. America was sluggish at the time, and its reflection shows up in literature.
