I thought this movie was very very well done, not only the way it was shot, but some of the scenes where Max just goes absolutely crazy and loses himself, this movie also inspired me to start playing the board game Go, which Max and his friend Sol play throughout the film, it also got me really interested in numbers and numerology, any thoughts?

Many Thought!
The movie is really well done, is an indipendent movie and the black and white color gives a dreamlike effect.
The direction it's hallucinative and the soundtrack it's absolutly perfect.
There are many matematical question likes the spiral (it's a geometric form yopu can easily find in nature) and the reserch about a formula to understand the stock market.
Can the nature be understood only with maths? but Maths it's not a language complete (Godel sentence) it can't define everything or itself....
More the movie is related to religion and Cabala above all.
In the old testament you can find a lot of mathematical question.
The only problem about the movie it's there are too many subject: Pi ,Stock market, blidness, religion, cabala, the golden section, and sometimes it miss the point.
