I just watched Madame Curie (1943). This is an excellent movie, which was about Marie Curie and her collaboration with her husband, Pierre, in order to discover radium. In particular, I enjoyed the scenes where Marie would begin hypothesizing/brainstorming, and when she would begin to hesitate just a bit, Pierre would encourage her to continue with her thoughts despite how ludicrous or foolish that they may have seemed. In addition, I enjoyed the film's depiction of the scientific method, especially the rigorous experimentation process that was involved in successfully isolating radium from all known elements. Hence, IMO, the film did a wonderful job of illustrating the important role that scientific curiosity plays in discovering new knowledge and making breakthroughs; it made me hope that those who have scientific minds are doing their best to cultivate their abilities, so that they can contribute something cool to humanity's knowledge and understanding of reality.
