## Description

Starring Eddie Redmayne (Les Misérables) and Felicity Jones (The Amazing Spider-Man 2), this is the extraordinary story of one of the world's greatest living minds, the renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who falls deeply in love with fellow Cambridge student Jane Wilde. Once a healthy, active young man, Hawking received an earth-shattering diagnosis at 21 years of age. With Jane fighting tirelessly by his side, Stephen embarks on his most ambitious scientific work, studying the very thing he now has precious little of – time. Together, they defy impossible odds, breaking new ground in medicine and science, and achieving more than they could ever have dreamed. The film is based on the memoir Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen, by Jane Hawking, and is directed by Academy Award® winner James Marsh (Man on Wire).Bonus Content:Deleted Scenes with Optional Commentary by Director James MarshBecoming the HawkingsFeature Commentary with Director James Marsh

Review: A Brief History of Stephen Hawking: bringing the cosmologist into the human spectrum of life - Regardless of what you believe concerning Stephen Hawking or the universe, this movie carries with it a deep and respective understanding of what it means to be human. Carefully crafting Hawking's life, from his marriage to Jane, or the development of his theories about the universe we live in, "The Theory of Everything" paints a picture of love, loyalty, pain, brokenness, and eventually, a strange yet haunting fulfillment of hope. No doubt the message of this movie is powerfully represented: that human kind, though one primate among many, can find hope in the theory that there are no limits to our humanity, just as there are no limits to the stars. Though many disagree with this, myself included, I can't argue with the fact that this movie argues its point well in a cinematic masterpiece that moves you emotionally, and for some, intellectually as well. And they use Hawking's story as a case-in-point example. Despite his disease, he lived well beyond the life expectancy that was branded on his life, lived a fulfilled and happy marriage, and became the successful Ph.D he dreamed of one day being. And it was perhaps his own victory against his struggles that brought him to the conclusion that there is no limit stamped on humanity. The film depicts Stephen and Jane's struggle against his disease, as they both try to keep their family together, and he tries to get his Ph.D. In a very raw depiction of the two, the viewer gets a very real sense of what they actually went through and what it cost them, but also what they gained. As a film, I don't think I have ever seen, nor ever will see a movie so well acted. Eddie Redmayne was absolutely phenomenal, and I didn't doubt for a second that he wasn't Hawking himself. His physical acting, as well as his emotional acting were truly awe inspiring, acting at its finest. Felicity Jones and the other major players of the film were incredible as well, easily playing upon the emotions of there characters, staying in character flawlessly, and making every second of the movie believable. Technically, this film was easy to watch, and well directed, and was entertaining all the way through. Though I disagree with Hawking, I am hard pressed to think of another biographical drama that beats "the Theory of Everything". Excellent film...please do watch! Parental guide: sexuality is limited to conversational implications of an appropriate nature, as well as a brief look at a Penthouse magazine towards the end. Cursing is countable one hand, and thematic details, though not appropriate for a child, are good for anyone above the age of 12-13. Depending of your worldview, also be ready to have a talk with your child about the ideas put forth in this movie about the universe.
Review: REMARKABLE CAST IN A MOVING STORY ABOUT A LOVE IN CHAOS - I was beyond stunned by the beauty of THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING. Everything about this film is stellar-especially the amazing cast . I held back for a long time in seeing this film thinking I wasn't interested in a film about a science genius. THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING is actually the story of two people in love and defying amazing odds. Based on Jane Hawking's book about her life with Stephen Hawking, THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING bombards us with the stark reality of a love story in crisis. She was there with him from the beginning. A shy young lady named Jane (the gorgeous Felicity Jones) falls in love with science geek Stephen Hawking. The film is slow moving at first and seemingly uninspired. It's a "we've seen it before" love story between a beautiful lady and a nerdy geek. But, suddenly, the story shifts and we are riveted to the end. Hawking is diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). Doctors give him two years to live. Here is where the story really begins as Jane eagerly embraces a chance to spend those two years with Hawking and be by his side. But through an amazing miracle and twist, Hawking lives decades beyond his promised two years. A truly remarkable and bittersweet story emerges as Jane becomes the eternal caregiver to Hawking as well as mother to their children. Here is a rarely explored side to the Stephen Hawking story and it makes for a fascinating film. The caregiver's story is often neglected and finally we see a loving and courageous woman buckling to the stress. Eddie Redmayne does an incredibly realistic portrayal of Hawking as his body deteriorates. Redmayne puts his soul and body into the role. This was a physically challenging role and Redmayne portrays Hawking with sensitivity and realism. This is a beautiful period piece that is stunning to look at. THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING is inspiring, heartbreaking and bittersweet but we see love overcomes all adversity...but even love has its limits in the end.
