This new feature-length biographical film tells the extraordinary and dramatic story of the planet's most famous living scientist, told for the first time in his own words and by those closest to him. Made with unique access to his private life, this is an intimate and moving journey into Stephen Hawking's past and present. Interviewees include Stephen Hawking's sister Mary, his ex-wife Jane, carers and students, as well as colleagues such as Roger Penrose, plus Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin, actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Jim Carrey, and Sir Richard Branson This inspirational portrait of an iconic figure relates Hawking's incredible personal journey from boyhood underachiever to scientific genius and multi-million-selling author. And it charts how he overcame being diagnosed with motor neurone disease - and being given just two years to live - to make amazing scientific discoveries and become a symbol of triumph over adversity. Born exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo, Hawking grew up in a family some regarded as eccentric. Always asking questions, he was nicknamed 'Einstein' at school. Hawking blossomed at Oxford, although he only spent an hour a day studying. He noticed that he was becoming clumsy and fell over for no apparent reason. He was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, but nevertheless started a family and embarked on his academic career, finding himself at the heart of a searing scientific debate about the origins of the universe. And as he lost the use of his body, Hawking had to find new ways to think. He went on to write the huge bestseller A Brief History of Time, and the film reveals the high and lows of his resulting fame and fortune
真正的传奇!无法用手写字,无法说话,只能在大脑中用图像进行演算,反而使得他能够更深入理解宇宙,想到与常人所想不一样的事。The Paralympic Games are all about transforming our perception of the world. We are all different. There is no such thing as a standard or run of the mill human being. But we share the same human spirit. However difficult life may seem. There is always something you can do and succeed at it. The game provide an opportunity for athelets to excel, to stretch themselves and become something in their field. So let us together celebrate excellence, friendship and respect.
正儿八经的霍金传,由霍金自己本色出演,还进行了画外配音讲解,看完之后特别感动,单单就这些讲解,他得用脸颊打多久的字啊!
一、天妒英才
霍金出生在知识分子世家,父母都是牛津大学高材生,他出生的日子恰逢伽利略逝世三百周年祭日,冥冥之中仿佛一个轮回。从小霍金就非常聪明,5.6岁就能设计管道系统和电力系统,之后进入牛津和剑桥读书,意气风发,属于那种不努力依然是第一名的天之骄子。
然而21岁时一切都改变了,霍金被查出患有渐冻症,思维不受影响但肌肉会逐渐萎缩直至完全无法控制,普遍情况只能活两年。这种病对于任何人来说都是晴天霹雳,特别是霍金这种胸中有沟壑,智商超高的人来说更是巨大的打击。
幸好霍金内心足够强大,痛苦之余继续投身研究喜爱的课题,遇到了心爱的女子简也转移了他对疾病的注意力,激发了要好好活下去的决心。但这个疾病无法治愈,26岁他开始无法自如的行动,只能坐在轮椅上,逐渐开始说话含糊不清,只有亲近的人才能听懂翻译;到1985年,由于肺部感染只能切开气管帮助呼吸,彻底失去了语言功能,全身只有三根手指能活动,靠着眨眼确认拼写板与外界缓慢交流,1-2分钟只能拼出一个单词,后面安装了小电脑,用手指控制光标打字输出才略微快些;2005年左右,手指也无法再动,只能靠脸颊肌肉控制光标,打字速度可想而知;2018年去世,享年76岁,比之前预测的2年足足多活了53年。n二、我的感受n既震撼又感动,这是多么顽强的生命力啊,能勇敢面对自己身体的日益衰退,面临随时可能到来的死亡阴影笼罩,乐观幽默笑对世界。大脑反应飞速,一瞬间可以想出别人一年才能想出的东西,却只能缓慢的打字,心中虽有千言,嘴上却无法表达,一度每分钟只能打1-2个词,仍然坚持出科普书写论文做演讲,一篇论文他得费劲的多少小时才能完成啊,想想都觉得心疼。我们都太幸福了,起码是健康完整的,可以自由自在的做很多想做的事情。n《朗读者》中有人读了采访霍金的一个片段,记者请霍金用一个词描绘他对这个世界的看法,那时候的霍金已经非常虚弱,没想到他拼了个wow,被病痛折磨了这么多年,依然对世界仍充满好奇和赞叹!相比之下自己如此幸福,遇到点小挫折就怨天尤人,叹命运多舛,人生坎坷,真的是无病呻吟,自惭形愧。
霍金的故事让我意识到,世界总是存在着各种各样未知性,我们无法预测,那就开开心心过好每一天,让自己过得充实有意义。不虚度时光也不能浪费生命,今天是无数昨天死去的人,永远到不了的明天。
生活如此五彩斑斓,最重要的就是你怎么去看待它!
