The Theory of Everything (2014)
Imdb – 7.7 / Rotten Tomatoes 80% The biographical film of theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, who is known as one of the greatest scientists of our time, presents the story of Hawking's life from his university days to becoming a famous scientist. Eddie Redmayne, who played Hawking, won an Oscar for this movie. Although it is Stephen Hawking's biopic, it does not focus on black hole theory and quantum theory, which are too difficult to understand, but on the love and affection between Hawking and his wife Jane. It would be more accurate to say that it is a joyful story that presents how the two faced the motor neuron disease that Hawking was suffering from along with the ups and downs of the chords and how they found life together. The story begins in 1963 when Hawking went to Cambridge University. It started when they first arrived and met Jane, who would become his wife. Hawking, who was a very intelligent person in his time and had many good friends, was diagnosed with motor neuron disease at the age of 21, although the doctor said that he would not live for more than 2 years. Jane decided to marry him. In this way, the two of them started to face the turning points of their lives together. In this movie, which is one of the best movies of 2014, the main praise is the performance of Eddie Redmayne, who plays Stephen Hawking, as well as the cinematography and background music. James Marsh, who directed this movie, even sent an e-mail to congratulate Stephen Hawking himself, saying that he felt like he was watching Eddie Redmayne's performance. I think there are two reasons for the title of the movie, The Theory of Everything. . As explained in the story, the two most important pillars of physics are General Relativity and Quantum Theory. General Relativity applies to very large objects such as planets, stars, and galaxies, while Quantum applies to very small electrons, It dominates over photons and elementary particles. Since the two theories seem to contradict each other in principle, there are difficulties in trying to explain the universe using both theories. It is the dream of every physicist, including Hawking, to combine these two theories and find a Theory of Everything that can explain all the phenomena of the world. After finding this theory, it is said that physics has run out of things to search for. That is why the movie was given this title, and the second thing is that the disease that Stephen is facing is getting worse day by day, and conflicts between his wife and family are rising, and the theory of the meaning of the life that he is living. It may also refer to what I was looking for.
