Awesome biography

Rating: 9/10 (29 November 2014)

An amazing movie - Eddie Redmayne's performance is so real that you forget he is an actor - he is Stephan Hawking. The preparation he must have done for this part has to have been gruesome - the changes in his facial features, the things the disease did to his body - so well portrayed. I forgot he was an actor - he is Hawking. The story is important for many reasons. The focus on the disease and its progression, the affects of it on their marriage, and the genius of his mind was not affected. Felicity Jones is just as good as his wife - never knowing the course the marriage would have to go through - she was devoted to him through it all - even though she was loosing the sense of herself. In reality, you wonder how she was able to raise three kids and take care of Stephan and always be there for him. Her performance is worthy of awards too.The movie is well casted, well written and I hope there are many awards coming its way.
