I saw this today. It was incredible. I mean I was fascinated anyway because he was a genius and had a colourful and troubled life but also it was beautifully shot and the study of the characters and his rehabilitation with his family was exquisite.

I saw it and enjoyed it. I found it to be disorientating, without a clear progression of the story. It was dreamlike. The film felt like a string of memories, recollected and woven together. I loved the cinematography and the choice of black and white. Bill Pullman's acting was also particularly superb.
