Love is The Theory of Everything

Rating: 7/10 (1 January 2015)

I didn't expect to enjoy this film but I was pleasantly surprised with it. The film tells the story of Stephen Hawking from his Cambridge period days onwards ..
Hawking was given 2 years to live when he was first diagnosed with the motor neuron disease that he has and the Love of his first wife kept him alive no doubt. The fact that he only had 2 years to live and had over ran that was brought in only at the last section of the film and it should have been brought in much earlier its omission and misplacement in the story line was as noticeable as a toothless grin. I had also expected a bit more conflict , angst from his first wife when the 2 years came and went and Mr Hawking was still alive and she had no home help to assist her ...
Notwithstanding the film is a good one and Eddie deserves both a Bafta and an Oscar for his acting abilities as he really honed in his skills and talent.
Where there is life there is hope and this film does try to give hope to all
