Am sure that as the series goes on, we shall see how wife #1 gave way to his second wife.

The use of flashbacks here is excellent as we see a young Eisenstein envisioning his theory of light and energy in relation to his life.

Amazing to see the naivete of others regarding the political situation in Germany before 1933. Yes, Hitler lost the '32 election, but his power was growing by the hour and even a representative from the State Department stated that the Nazis aren't in power as Einstein's political views were under suspect by FBI's J. Edgar Hoover.

We meet a rebellious young Einstein, certainly a rebel for his times and we also see that beyond mathematics and physics, his knowledge in other areas was limited.

We certainly see the value of education and that young Einstein was certainly a lady's man.
