A poignant look at a genius' life

Rating: 8/10 (6 January 2019)

It's a shame we lost both Stephen Hawking and Jóhann Jóhannsson in the past year, who both were so vital to this film. Eddie Redmayne completely disappears into the difficult role of Stephen Hawking and deservedly won the Oscar for Best Actor. Jóhannsson's score is beautiful and brings such a sense of wonder and tenderness to the movie. The Theory of Everything is a wonderful peer into the life of such an impactful and inspiring person.
