NotesThe story of the brilliant scientist Richard Feynman who besides winning the Nobel Prize in Physics (1965) introduced many to the world of nanotechnology. Apparently the film concentrates on his early years and there isn't much science, though much of the film is set against the backdrop of Los Alamos. The woman he wants to marry has TB which at the time usually meant being shut away in a sanitarium to recover or die. But against the wishes of his parents they get married. Note the film is directed by Broderick and the screenplay was written by his mother.
