Errol Morris (The Fog of War) turns his camera on one of the most fascinating men in the world: the pioneering astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, afflicted by a debiIitating motor neuron disease that has left him without a voice or the use of his limbs. An adroitly crafted taIe of personal adversity, professional triumph, and
cosmologicaI inquiry, Morris's documentary examines the way the coIIapse of Hawking's body has been accompanied by the untrammeled broadening of his imagination. Telling the man's incredible story through the voices of his colleagues and Ioved ones, whiIe making dynamically accessibIe some of the theories in
Hawking's best-seIling book of the same name, A Brief History of Time is at once as smalI as a single Iife and as big as the ever-expanding universe. |
