The Aeronauts

In 1862, an unlikely pair take to the skies via hot air balloons, finding unexpected adventures. James Glaisher (Eddie Redmayne), a scientist struggling to win respectability, hopes to establish a new discipline called meteorology. Emilia Wren (Felicity Jones) is an entertainer-adventuress coming to terms with tragedy. Putting their lives into each other’s hands, they set off on an epic journey. (Telluride Film Festival)
