'The Theory of Everything' is a biographical romance film that blends elements typical of the romance genre—such as a focus on the evolving relationship between the protagonists, emotional depth, and personal challenges—with a biopic narrative about an extraordinary individual. Typical romance elements include the depiction of love's development, emotional struggles, and the impact of external circumstances on the relationship. What makes this film stand out in the romance genre is its foundation in the real-life story of Stephen Hawking, whose battle with a debilitating illness adds a profound layer of resilience and inspiration. The narrative not only explores romantic love but also themes of perseverance, intellectual brilliance, and personal tragedy, giving it a depth that transcends many conventional romance titles.
