Great people are great not just because of their extraordinary achievements, but because they tell us how to be extraordinary.
The film begins with the subtitle: This is the story of a search for the beginning of time. It's a story about exploring the origin of time, and yes, "Hawking's Story" is closely related to time, in every way. What he explores is eternal time and the infinite universe, he is racing against death and time, his whole life is in endless race against cruel time, just like Kuafu, he will not stop until he is exhausted... ...
Hawking was born in Oxford, England on January 8, 1942. At the age of 21 in 1963, he was diagnosed with motor neuron disease and was announced by doctors that he would have only two years left. This is undoubtedly bad news for the young cosmologist, his life, his academics, his career, his love, his everything seems to have become limited and short-lived. In the film, the boy who smiled at the girl he liked at the party, the Hawking who was still talking about the universe during the operation, the young doctor who was about to burn his youthful youth, was so sad that he knew his illness. , but he did not give up. So he left the hospital and the cold cage where he witnessed death every day. He wanted to complete his academic dream in his limited time. He gave up escaping (although many people would choose to escape), and chose to fight for the sake of Fight for your dreams!
Hawking's father met his PhD supervisor and begged him to give him an easy project to complete in 2 years, but for a supervisor who takes students and academic research as everything he does is irresponsible , so he refused his father's request. At the beginning, Hawking did not choose his own subject and research object, but a bud took root in his heart, that is, he wanted to study the origin of the universe. The old scientific theory holds that The universe has always existed and it always will. But the truth is, nothing stays the same forever. When his ideas were mocked as cartoon physics, when the doors of ideas closed to him, he did not give up. But this idea is just a bud, and he still doesn't know how to realize it, and this period is also the formation period of his future cosmic thoughts. His supervisor told him, Do something. All of your own. Be original. Hawking suddenly woke up, and later he was inspired by his seniors and finally completed a wonderful doctoral dissertation.
The overall tone of the film is lingering in a faint warmth: warm sunshine, warm campus, caring seniors, parents who do not give up their children and girlfriends with warm smiles... It is this faint warmth that dilutes the original That too heavy topic - growth. The growth of a scholar, the growth of a king of the universe, and the growth of a fighter who races against time and fights against himself. After watching the film, you will think a lot, not only about the film itself, but more about our own lives.
We have healthy bodies, we have plenty of time, we have bright sunshine, but what are we doing? Scientists are scrambling to explore, mathematicians are making perfect deductions, and physicists are working hard to create. We don’t see these. What we see is the honors they have won (even we don’t even care about this in many cases). We only see what new models of mobile phones are coming out today and what kind of computers are popular tomorrow. As for how these things come, we don't care, we are used to eating ready-made meals. This terrible habit largely stifles our curiosity and destroys our creativity. What are we doing when others are racing against time? Maybe you're sleeping, maybe you're shopping, maybe you're just sitting in your office drinking tea in a daze... The answer is usually humbling.
BC's sincere interpretation has opened a door for us to understand. He has made a change in our long-standing habit of looking up to great men - great men are also mortals, and he needs warmth!
