Having recently exhausted my “TV Icons in a Movie of the Week About Schizophrenia” and “Elderly Comedian Tells Jokes About Madonna’s Daughter Being a Hirsute Gay Man” Netflix viewing options, last night I turned to Hawking, a 2013 documentary by Stephen Finnigan in which Stephen Hawking tells the story of his own life.

There is no point in attempting to summarize it—Hawking covers everything so concisely that you might as well watch the zippy 85-minute production yourself—but there are three standout moments I wanted to recap that might get lost in the shuffle of other reviews.
