Portraying Albert Einstein as a matchmaker in the romantic comedy "IQ" is a relatively sound idea, a friend of the late genius says.

"I think he was the kind of person who, when close to someone, would do anything for them," Gillett Griffin said of his friend and fellow Princeton University professor. "He had a warm sense of humor.""IQ" opens in theaters Dec. 25.
