Having watched the movie, instead of amazed by R's brilliance, I was more saddened by his family tragedy. I think this movie, other than focusing on one of the most intelligent mind in human history, has more touch on moral issues, like family, war, racial conflicts, humanity, religion, and love. Of course, R's discovery has brightened the whole world, but not his family. Not his wife or his mother. Especially his wife.
He sacrificed his family for his discovery. So I'd say, it's the gain of the humanity but the loss of his family. What I really love about this movie is that it recovers R as a human, not an almighty genius.
