A Beautiful Mind is one of the worst. Barely anything that happens in the film seemed to be actually true.

And it bothers me when "true" stories have to create a villain, or turn a real life person into one, just to have some dramatic stakes...Imitation Game, Titanic, Cinderella Man...

I believe this is what happened with Charles Dance's Admiral character in Imitation Game? There he was quite antagonistic against Turing whereas in real life he was quite supportive and a mathematician in his own right. Made him a jerk just for tension :(

Man how did they manage to have a bunch of great actors in that trainwreck of a movie.
