A romance

Rating: 6/10 (14 February 2015)

It wasn't until the end that I realised the movie was based on the memoirs of Hawking's wife. It all fell into place and I decided that what I'd just seen wasn't such a bad movie after all.
Redmayne's Hawking was brilliant, as he slowly descends into the clutches of his motor neuron disease hell. Jones' Jane Hawking also very good as she struggled with her increasing burden of family and caring for Hawking.
At the end of the movie, I was left wondering how his life may have panned out, had he not found a partner. Was it Einstein who always wore the same style of clothes so he didn't have to waste time considering what he'd wear each morning? Sorry, can't quite remember.
Anyway, the movie is worth a look. Just don't expect too much science...
