motion pictures with a scientific or technological theme did strangely smartly in the 2015 Academy Awards, winning "most useful actor", "greatest documentary" and "most useful visual results".
Eddie Redmayne received the "gold standard actor" Oscar for his portrayal of physicist Stephen Hawking in The idea of every thing. long regarded a front-runner, the performance required Redmayne to depict the development of Hawking's motor neurone disease which has gradually paralysed him over several many years.
Laura Poitras' depiction of Edward Snowden's journey from safety expert to whistleblower and world fugitive, Citizenfour took the Academy Award for "greatest documentary". Poitras, alongside journalist Glenn Greenwald, had unparalleled access to Snowden during the duration of time that his disclosures became public, giving a behind-the-scenes examine the way it came about.
Interstellar took the award for "most desirable visible results", accumulated by way of the movie's visual effects supervisors Paul Franklin, Andrew Lockley (each of whom also received an Oscar for Christopher Nolan's Inception four years ago) and first-time nominees Ian Hunter and Scott Fisher. Interstellar's results were advised by astrophysicist Kip Thorne, and the VFX crew later posted a scientific paper on the code they used to render the style light beams curve round a black hole.
finally, The Imitation online game -- a biopic of pioneering desktop scientist Alan Turing, received the Oscar for premier tailored screenplay. whereas accepting the award screenwriter Graham Moore admitted to trying suicide, and ended his speech by asserting, "i would like for this second to be for that child accessible that feels weird and distinctive. reside weird."
