G.H. Hardy (Jeremy Irons) spells "Jacobi" incorrectly when writing on the blackboard by transposing the 'c' and the 'b' This is changed in later cuts of the film.
Trivia:
In the film Good Will Hunting when Stellan Skarsgård is trying to convince Robin Williams to take on Matt Damon he compares him to Srinivasa Ramanujan as an example of his extraordinary ability.

David Leavitt ("The Lost Language of Cranes") wrote a semi-fictional version of this story in his novel, "The Indian Clerk".
