WHERE CAN I SEE THIS?

A Beautiful Young Mind is the title of this film's release in the US. The original title was X+Y. This film jumps right into it with a lot that happens in the first few minutes to set things up, then slows down a bit as we really get to know the main character. The ending was somewhat unexpected and quite powerful. If you tend to get emotional, bring tissues.
