Regarding the first wife Jane, I feel that she is a typical Capricorn woman, rational, capable and tenacious. The reason why she chose to marry Hawking was also a choice after weighing. She was not as desperate for love as everyone imagined, but she felt that the love between them was worth her sacrifice for two years. In married life, Jane's quickness and ability can be seen everywhere, she manages the house tightly, and takes good care of the sick man. At the same time, she does not completely regard herself as a servant who does everything. She let Hawking take care of things like going upstairs with peace of mind. In fact, this not only reduced her burden, but also gave Hawking enough self-esteem. Later, Hawking did not live for two years according to the doctor's prediction, but he did not die (I think this is Hawking's humorous, optimistic and open-minded genes played a role). But Jane didn't give up and persisted. So in the film, Jane broke out several times and said: "I need help!" For this help, I think not only needs a helper such as a live-in nurse, but more importantly, someone needs to understand her. After all, every woman yearns to be a little woman, yearning for the feeling of being embraced and cared for. So, when Jonathan, the conductor of the choir, showed up, she was pregnant again, but rationally she didn't do any betrayal. When there is no longer love between Hawking and Jane, but only by family, I think everyone should respect the true love between Jane and Jonathan. Moreover, they finally came together because of Hawking's betrayal. It can be seen how admirable the tenacity is in Jane.
Regarding the second wife Elaine, I feel like a typical Gemini, smart, warm and sociable. The first time I used the Scrabble board, I was able to memorize the Scrabble board in my mind, which immediately improved Hawking's communication efficiency. This detail is like clearing the haze above Hawking's head and letting the sun bathe his body again. When taking care of Hawking, Elaine in the film always maintains enough enthusiasm, unlike Jane and Hawking's dull and boring communication method like "official business". In this aspect, it is like injecting vitality into Hawking's stagnant life, which man can be unmoved, and which man can be unmoved. Life is too short to have fun. Therefore, I also understand Hawking's "derailment". Although there are many rumors that Elaine has a tendency to abuse Hawking, Hawking firmly forbids others to take responsibility for Elaine. I think this confirms that Elaine is Hawking's real partner and a window of communication. Hawking can be without Jane but absolutely. Can't lose Elaine.
As for Hawking, Jane said in her memoirs that he was not that great in the siege. But I think if I were Hawking, it would be very difficult for me to be so strong until now. Hawking in the family may be domineering, selfish and conceited, and it may be difficult to communicate, but do you know that Jane has never read a single word of Hawking's masterpiece "A Brief History of Time", how can others understand that he and his wife have been unable to find it for a long time. Common language, want to express the pain of no one to listen to, as a man who is not admired by his own woman, but often feels inferior, guilty, and powerless when facing her, even knowing that the relationship between Jonathan and his wife is beyond ordinary friends, but He also went to the door and begged him to come back to accompany his wife in person. Therefore, in life, Hawking's shortcomings should be tolerated and understood, because he is also a normal person.
Regarding Jonathan, I also want to give him a thumbs up. A man, for so many years, sacrificed so much time and energy to accompany a married woman, and nothing happened. Even helping her to take care of her sick man, I would like to believe that he really loves Jane, that is true love. Fortunately, Jonathan and Jane are still together in the end. Lovers get married, bless them.
In general, every family has a book that is difficult to read, everyone has unspeakable difficulties, and no one is right or wrong. A world of sand is like the universe. There are highs, lows, stars, and black holes. The only thing we can do is to tolerate it, feel it, and don’t expect anything left, because time will always heal everything. .
