The Man Who Knew Infinity (2015)



The story of the life and academic career of the pioneer Indian mathematician, Srinivasa Ramanujan, and his friendship with his mentor, Professor G.H. Hardy.

Good period drama about a fascinating (and important) mathematical genius is convincing in its depiction of the academic rivalries with rheir racism, chauvinism and professional hybris.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (2014)



Bilbo and Company are forced to engage in a war against an array of combatants and keep the Lonely Mountain from falling into the hands of a rising darkness.
