DR. JAMES GRIME: Yeah, but like all mathematicians, he's
tall, blond, and handsome.
Yeah?
Yeah?
-Well, he's not tall or blond or--
is he?
DR. JAMES GRIME: Yeah.
-Is he?
He's not tall.
DR. JAMES GRIME: I don't know.
I wasn't counting.

They wanted to do a film about a troubled genius.
And originally they were going to do physics genius.
And then they were advised to pick a mathematical genius
because it might work better with the script.
It's a really good film.
And the maths is less important.
Should we talk about what they did in the film, the maths?
-Yeah.
DR. JAMES GRIME: All right, so we'll talk about that first.
Near the beginning of the film, the MIT professor sets
his students a challenge.
