Currently on HBO: Einstein and Eddington. This depicts, among other things the correspondence that grew between Arthur Eddington a British physicist and Albert Einstein a German physicist. Ultimately, Eddington lead an expedition to view a solar eclipse that proved Einstein's theory of gravitation predicted correctly.

I watched a two hour show on the History Channel about Einstein mission to prove general relativity. This looks interesting, too.

And with David Tennant and Andy Serkis to boot. Both showing, I presume, that they can do more than the Doctor and Gollum respectively. I just want it to come out over here in Australia.
