James Marsh's film, "The Theory of Everything," as a whole has some narrative and directorial flaws. However, it inhabits two amazing Oscar worthy performances by Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones.
Redmayne is stellar as the afflicted genius Stephen Hawking from beginning to end. The actor has been on the cusp of a breakout for years and this is it for him. Redmayne should win Best Actor for this portrayal. He captures the mannerisms and flat out embodies Hawking to the nth degree.
Jones holds the film together. She imbued Jane Hawking with the love and patience necessary with the role and beautifully expresses the desperation and despair Jane feels after decades with Stephen.
David Thewlis is solid in his supporting role as Dennis Sciama. Charlie Cox is also good as Jonathan Hellyer Jones
Good movie and often emotional. Great work by the two leads.
