1、Are you looking for some movies? You've landed on the right place. Let's take a look at the list I've collected.
A Beautiful Mind
A Beautiful Mind is the story of John Nash, a mathematician who went on to win the Nobel Prize for his Game Theory. This movie brings his whole journey on screen—from his beginning to his downhill ride.
The first half is all about his rise to fame while the second half shows how he slowly falls into madness. After many years of fighting, he finally is victorious.
I.Q.
The story is about an auto mechanic who falls for Albert Einstein's niece. The only problem is that she is engaged (已订婚的) to someone else. Fortunately, Einstein likes him. The young man pretends to be a physicist to run after her, but things don't go as he has planned.
If A Beautiful Mind was a little too heavy for you, I.Q. would be the perfect fit. It's a light drama that is funny and heartwarming for the most part.
Good Will Hunting
Good Will Hunting is a touching tale of a troubled young man called Will Hunting who is gifted with a natural talent in mathematics.
However, he is struggling to find his identity. He can solve any math problem, but not the one he seems to be struggling within his life. His life seems to be getting only worse until one day he meets Sean, a therapist, who helps him find direction in life.
Creation
Creation is a story of a famous scientist, Charles Darwin, best known for his Theory of Evolution. This movie attempts to bring his struggling days into focus, the time when he was dealing with the loss of his daughter and was suffering from hallucinations (幻觉). At the same time, he was working on a book called On the Origins of Species, which he finally completed.
All in all, Creation is a great historical drama.

19、Living with my roommate Lily, was an eye-opening experience for me. She was1 organized, while I was not. Each of her things had its place, but mine were always2 somewhere. She even labeled everything. I always3 for everything. Over time, Lily got neater and I got4. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her5 desk. We both got tired of each other, and there were more and more6 between us.War broke out one evening. Lily came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started7. She shouted back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We couldn't stay together for a single minute8 a phone call came. Lily answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled under her cover (被子), sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through9. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so lost in my work that I even didn't notice Lily had10. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression a kind of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, "Thanks."
From that moment on, we began to11 each other's habits and differences. Lily and I stayed roommates for the rest of the college years. We didn't always12 each other, but we learned the key to living together peacefully: respecting our differences, tidying up our own spaces and cultivating a sense of shared13 for living environment. Our relationship also taught us the importance of14 and forgiveness.
In conclusion, living with someone who is different from you can be challenging, but it can also be a great15 for growth and understanding.
