The Oscar award-winning film A Beautiful Mind starring Russell Crowe was loosely based on Nash’s longtime struggle with schizophrenia. Crowe wrote on Twitter on Sunday that he was stunned by reports of the death of Nash and his wife, Alicia. “An amazing partnership. Beautiful minds, beautiful hearts,” he wrote on Twitter.

Stunned...my heart goes out to John & Alicia & family.
An amazing partnership. Beautiful minds, beautiful hearts. https://t.co/XF4V9MBwU4
