Great Genius and Profound Stupidity (2008)

Psychologists, psychiatrists, and Merce Cunningham talk about their encounters with writer Helen Keller, mathematician Paul Erdös, and, in a general way, those geniuses who may at times come across as in a fog, otherworldly, disconnected, even stupid. Part of the off-camera narration presents a thesis: that genius and stupidity can be of imagination all compact. The remainder of the narrative focuses on stories about Keller and Erdös, plus a 9-year-old math prodigy talking about how he looks at problems. While voices comment, the images are of changing and ephemeral shapes, gears, landscapes, and the worlds of Erdös and Keller.		Currently 0.0/5 (0 votes) Add to Library
