Ed Harris was great in this film


Two things to say about this movie: it's a haunting film, and Ed Harris is great in it. He was great as Parcher.

Bettany and the little girl was also good. Furthermore, a part of me wished that John Nash continued to speak to them and have a realtionship with them.

Oh, and with the benefit of hindsight -- the film deserved to win best picture.

Not a big surprise, Ed Harris seems to do mostly quality work. Vivien Cardone (Marcee) only has a handful of credits but is still active. I've never seen her in anything else.

Yeah, Ed Harris just illustrates that even if you have seen him in countless other films and you know what to expect, he can still disappear into a role. A strong movie with a good story helps, of course.

A great film and I think Russell Crowe's best performance.
