In the past, I have heard people say that there is only a fine line between genius and mental illness, and it is easier to get the title of "genius" and "psychotic" than "psychotic". After all, it is not easy for many people to admit that their IQ is lower than yours. They can choose to disapprove of your achievements and attribute your whimsy to mistakes, so the genius is killed, and the status of mediocrity also saved.
The professor in the film, a respected mathematician, achieved high achievement at a young age, but schizophrenia appeared. The youngest daughter dropped out of school to accompany the professor's final moments, and a note to solve a math puzzle sets off a chain of events. The focus of this film lies in the family affection between father and daughter, as well as the ideological logic of genius. Perhaps it is the genius who has so many creative inspirations, and even the hallucinations that appear in front of him can't tell whether it is real or not, sometimes neurasthenia, sometimes hysterical. Geniuses specialize in one thing, and it is difficult to take care of their own life, which is also what others do not understand.
What did it finally prove? Everything turned out to be very simple, but she was lucky enough to let others find the answer, what about other geniuses?
This film is worth watching in your spare time, but you must be patient. The most touching thing is family. Rating: 7
