I am in Accounting and have a son afflicted with Autism.....I will address both issues from my POV.

First off, I agree with you about the whole accounting being wonky. It just seemed that they brought in someone to draw mathematical conclusions on the board and shot the film around it. I'm like you in that the time allotted to coming to that conclusion, even with a "beautiful mind" behind it just seemed out of touch.

Second......again from my POV....is that I have a hard time, knowing the whole issue with sensitivities that most with Asperger's/Autism have , he could/would handle all that he had done so untouched.

Now having said that, I enjoyed the movie. I set aside my real life understanding of the character's nature and enjoyed it for the entertainment it was.
