The Electrical Life of Louis Wain Movie Storyline
Louis Wain, the Wain family’s sole male and oldest son, becomes the major provider in 1881, 18 months after his father’s death. Working part-time as an artist for The Illustrated London News under editor Sir William Ingram, he supports his five sisters and mother. Wain refuses Ingram’s offer of a full-time employment in order to try his hand at music composition and playwriting, which he believes will help support the family, but neither effort succeeds.
Emily Richardson is hired as his sisters’ new governess. Caroline, the elder sister, is furious since the two are immediately drawn to one other. In order to maintain Emily as the governess, Louis chooses to accept the full-time job. As an educational outing, Louis brings the family and Emily to see The Tempest. She consoles Louis in the men’s room when he has a reoccurring nightmare about drowning during the performance, but she accidentally makes a scandal when nosy neighbor Mrs. DuFrane informs everyone about it. Caroline dismisses her the next night because she is embarrassed. Louis declares his love for her before she can go, and the two begin dating.

The Electrical Life of Louis Wain Movie Review
The Electrical Life of Louis Wain is also deceptively sympathetic, displaying a profound effect for its subject that is richer and more romantic than simple respect. Unlike Cumberbatch’s customary tales of highly brilliant, very successful individuals, this film does not weigh Wain’s emotional problems against the breadth of his accomplishments. It doesn’t expect you to admire his sacrifices or believe that they were all worthwhile in the end.
Wain immediately falls in love with Emily, who teaches his younger sisters, and the picture finds its warmth and stability at that point. This section of the movie is nothing short of a charming romantic comedy, filled with sensitivity and touching moments that serve as the foundation for the rest of the movie, which becomes unpredictable and tonally discordant after that.
