Review of The Imitation Game (2014) by Netflic — 22 Dec 2014
When I saw a preview for this movie, I was struck how unreal it looked. Clothes were spotless clean, hairstyles flawless. The same impression I had while watching a movie. In London during air raids people sat in bomb shelters and they looked as if they came straight from a barber shop.
Computer graphics were not realistic either: torpedoes, bombings, etc. That put aside, the movie is just great. What a story! Maybe even too much for one movie. It's about one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20-th century, Alan Turing, who built the first computer to break the German cipher machine "Enigma" code, considered absolutely invulnerable, against all odds.
And the horrible way Great Britain treated him, same as it treated all other homosexuals at that time. A Russian spy line is very interesting in itself. I admired both leads performance.
