The mathematical version of "the book was better than the movie." What we have here is a massive tome representing the countless attempts to prove a mathematical conjecture, while the actual conjecture itself is just a tiny little book. Nothing captures the pain of mathematics quite like spending 800 pages trying to prove something that can be stated in a single sentence. Fermat probably laughed himself to sleep after writing "I have discovered a truly marvelous proof which this margin is too small to contain." Sure, buddy. Four centuries of mathematicians would like a word.
