What 2001 Tony Award-winning play by writer David Auburn about a mathematical genius inspired a movie 4 years later starring Gwenyth Paltrow and Anthony Hopkins?

The film Proof was directed by John Madden, and was based on the award-winning play of the same name. In the film, Anthony Hopkins plays a brilliant mathematician named Robert, who struggles with mental illness (similar to the plot of A Beautiful Mind, which came out 4 years earlier). Gwyneth Paltrow plays the role of Catherine, Robert's daughter.
