    The Theory of Everthing is emotionally heavy. Eddie Redmayne deserves his oscar, even if some consider that the film was an oscar-bait. I really enjoyed it. It's kind of extraordinary how some people, in the face of adversity, continue to work extremelly hard.

Yeah, I was expecting this one to win, even though I liked Birdman more. I still haven't forgotten The King's Speech, which I thought was mediocre, but which also seemed like it was designed to win an award.
