Hi guys! Please share your favorite movie about a famous chemist or a chemistry breakthrough. I want to get inspired for hard work this weekend 😊
it would be interesting to learn about films about chemists in general, but probably many will call "Breaking Bad")
Well if to talk series "Chernobl" is a great one too)
@argentum Well, it's a series, but I think it's rightful to say that it is about chemists as well as over stuff. Challenges and moral questions of scientists at least
@chaoticgood I agree, the series looks very cool, I really liked it when I watched it. But it should be borne in mind that from the point of view of historical authenticity, it's not very accurate
During my vacation I was looking for films about chemists, but for some reason I found much more films, for example, about physicists and biologists, than about chemists. About chemists, I watched only a few films about Marie Curie
@_brauer_ Maybe chemistry isn't so exciting for people. If it's not a colorful experiment you need quite a bit of background to understand why something is impressive
Biology studies life, which is always mesmerizing, and physics invent day to day gadgets and study cosmos. It's hard to beat that
In the minds of people, at least in Russia, Chemistry is associated with explosives, poisons or drugs, unfortunately. Maybe the media is to blame.
Well, all those things are quite exciting. I don't think that it is a reason to blame someoneÂ
The fact that society has a false attitude towards an important industry, science, is actually a problem
@chaoticgood I don't think you need to have a background in science to understand a film about scientists. If, of course, we are talking about feature films) I watched, for example, a series about Einstein, it was very interesting and beautifully shot. I also watched a movie about Edison and electricity. It seems to me that there are many great scientists and discoveries in chemistry about which it would be interesting to watch a film. But for some reason I see very few such films
