Just rented a movie the other day that sort of relates to our predicament(spelling?). It's called "Pi" , as in the number sign. The protagonist is a mathmatical genuis who theorizes that everything in the universe can be explained mathmatically and he sets out to prove this by using the stock market as an example. Anyway, the main "evil force" standing in his way are his bad-ass headaches which seem to worsen the closer he gets to a solution. First time I've ever seen headaches portrayed in a movie so sinisterly. Not exactly a feel good movie, but I found it quite entertaining, and oddly enough, my headaches went into remission after watching it. Strange shit.
