A Brilliant Madness is the story of a mathematical genius whose career was cut short by a descent into madness. At the age of 30, John Nash, a stunningly original and famously eccentric MIT mathematician, suddenly began claiming that aliens were communicating with him and that he was a special messenger.
Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, Nash spent the next three decades in and out of mental hospitals, all but forgotten. During that time, a proof he had written at the age of 20 became a foundation of modern economic theory. In 1994, as Nash began to show signs of emerging from his delusions, he was awarded a Nobel Prize in Economics. The program features interviews with John Nash, his wife Alicia, his friends and colleagues, and experts in game theory and mental illness.
Go beyond the Oscar-winning drama “A Beautiful Mind” and learn more about the life of troubled mathematician and Nobel Prize-winner John Nash and his struggle with mental illness in this PBS “American Experience” documentary. Exclusive interviews with Nash and wife Alicia are included.
Sadly John and Alicia died in may 2015 in a car crash. A taxi ran off the road and they were ejected from the back seat and died. He was 86.

I did not find this that interesting
Very stressful situations can spark mental disorders. That is obvious to most people. Remember the movie The Soloist? He developed a severe Schizophrenic disorder from the school he was attending…Julliard in NYC I think.

I really enjoyed the documentary.
This is a fantastic video, glad to see more behind the “Beautiful Mind” aspect of Johns’ life. Very interesting.. it seems as if his brilliance turned him insane.
I didn’t realize brilliance and insanity went hand in hand. whatever do i know.
