Smart People, Big Brains, Big Problems
Genius is not a vibe. It’s a burden. These are the biopics where intelligence changes history, but also breaks people. Expect brilliance, pressure, and consequences. You will feel both impressed and uncomfortable. Correct. After you'll be like me: proud of your own stupidity.
