THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• This movie was based on the book of the same name by Sylvia Nasar.
• Unlike most films, this movie was shot in sequence, this was to help Russell Crowe develop his character's depth into insanity slowly and subtly.
• This film is based on the true story of John Nash, however several important details of his life were left out of the story, including the fact that he was married numerous time, had a child out of marriage in his twenties, and the fact that he had many homosexual affairs. Nash's homosexuality was specifically left out as filmmakers didn't want schizophrenia being associated with homosexuality.
• Before the role was given to Russell Crowe, Tom Cruise was considered for the role of John Nash.
• Robert Redford was originally set to direct the film but had to drop off the project due to scheduling conflicts, as a result this opened the door for Ron Howard to take the reigns.
