This film is intended to give us an impressionistic perspective on the brief period of time (in Ramanujan's all too brief life) when he was "discovered" and collaborated with the great mathematician G. H. Hardy. Of course, we know that Ramanujan had a world-shattering genius surpassing Hardy's, at least in Hardy's estimation, but this was, nonetheless, one of the stellar collaborations in mathematics during the twentieth century. It's setting, too, was world-shattering, the Great War in Europe, WWI. It is, in essence, a good period in these outstanding mathematician's lives for an impressionistic film to be of value. The mathematicians Ramanujan and Hardy are displayed a bit stereotypically, but the movie is nonetheless of interest for anyone who is at least a little familiar with the history of mathematics during the twentieth century. Re-creating the atmosphere of the times, and the truly fine performances of the two actors in the role of Hardy and Ramanujan, makes this a powerful film worth seeing.
