This story is Poignant in some parts, but not a Heart wrench-er. There is a decent pace to this film, and a little action sprinkled through out. I enjoyed learning about S. Ramanujan, definitely has that (your teacher might show this movie in class) vibe. A focus on Hardy and Ramanujan's relationship is the biggest driver in this film. His work in mathematics is in the forefront, but not the biggest focus. They Dabble in WWI They touch ever so slightly on race relations in England The Relationship Ramanujan and his wife is told parallel to the main plot
Basically Jeremy Irons acts like Jeremy Irons (aristocratically smug) taking Dev Patel for granted, then Patel throws a couple temper tantrums and almost dies, and somewhere in there he solves partitions.
That being said, Jeremy Irons(he's my DAWG!) and Dev Patel did an amazing job, all in all that's what I came for. Good acting drove this movie, story is missing a little something in my opinion, maybe more Bertrand Russell!
Worth a Watch
