So I know I've posted about this before but I really love this movie so again... I'm gonna rant about cause I watched it again last night and it kicks ars. It's about a mathematian who spends years of his life analysing the stockmarket because he believes there is a pattern. The only problem is the stockmarket is so complex that the algorthm(fancy word for pattern) he's beginning to find, governs all complex change! So as he teaters on the brink of insanity/geniousness, he also has to deal with a very aggressive Wall Street firm who'll do anything to get his work while a religious sect also chases him because they believe he's found the long lost-true name of God!!! yeah.... it's that crazy.
Obviously not a big budget film but so well done. It's a very "artsy" film shot in high-contrast black & white with an incredible sound track which includes Orbital, & Photek. I love and recommend this movie so much that I owned 3 copies but one I lost (cause I lend it to everyone) and one I donated to the local library. So now i only have one copy.... which means I should probably get a new one If I haven't instantly swayed you to run to the video store and see this film you could always check out the link below which goes to the movie web-site.
