Review of The Imitation Game (2014) by Amboy — 05 Jan 2015
What emerges powerfully in this film is that Alan Turing is quarantined as much by his genius as by his homosexuality. Both in the writing and in Cumberbatch's amazing performance, the character is as much defined by the power of his mind as by his sexual preferences.
Under the genteel surface of this very British looking and sounding film, there is the roiling inner tension between a brilliant mind and a tortured soul. Highest recommdendation.
