THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING (2014)

FILMS FROM THE 21st CENTURY
(Post 2 of 50)

Some quick takes on the most relatively recent listings from the
1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die list


My perception of Steven Hawking as the celebrity/genius astrophysicist whose body has been crippled my MLS is so strong that I had to do a double take when I saw there was going to be a movie about Stephen that seemed more of A Beautiful Mind type romance than an episode of Cosmos. But we really do learn more about what Hawking's early life than many of us knew before. Eddie Redmayne's depiction of Hawking first as the young budding genius and then as the older famous man ravaged by physical deterioration was truly Oscar worthy.
