Theory of Jane Hawking

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2016)

Beautiful film of a beautiful and sad story. The cinematography and the soundtrack creates a nostalgic and timeless mood for the film.
For me, this is a movie about Jane Hawking and not Stephen Hawking. Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones's versions of Stephen and Jane touched me. They portrayed their struggles with many layers of emotions. Amazing actors! I didn't know anything about the Hawkings prior and was expecting a documentary of Hawking's life with loving wife. So I was surprised to see how their relationship evolved and the struggles they encountered. Contrary to popular belief, their relationship is not one one would aspire to. I honestly believe, when they were getting married, Jane was happy to be with Stephen thinking she could make his last few years happy. Yet, she didn't realize she'd devote her entire life to taking care of him.
