positive · AI labelView post →Numbers are crazy man. I watched that movie the Imitation Game and those eggheads were talking about making some code the Nazis couldn’t break and they were like ok if it’s six numbers it’ll take them a week, if it’s seven numbers it’ll take them 10,000 years. Anyways my point is I had UConn
neutral · AI labelView post →Another thing about Alan Turing from the Imitation Game that they didn’t put in the movie because they’re cowards is that he once hid a bunch of money in the woods and then was like ah fuck I made the code too complicated, I should have made it like “eert gib rednu”
neutral · AI labelView post →Alan Turing was played by Benedict Cumberbatch in the Oscar nominated movie, The Imitation Game. I felt it poorly served Turing’s homosexuality, desexing him before the chemical castration. I prefer the earlier Breaking the Code, with Derek Jacobi as Turing and, briefly, me as a lover of his.
negative · AI labelView post →Alan Turing, 1954. He was a bit misrepresented in the Imitation Game movie, apparently: while slightly odd as many of us nerds are, he was friendly and well liked.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Benedict Cumberbatch movie, The Imitation Game rendered Turing practically sexless even before the chemical castration, inflicted as a consequence of the laws against homosexuality. An earlier telling of Turing’s story, Breaking the Code starring Derek Jacobi, featured him having sex… with me!

It delivers incredible highs and devastating lows, with some of the best acting I’ve seen in a while. Benedict Cumberbatch absolutely nailed the role, portraying a brilliant but arrogant character whose flaws slowly grow on you. I found similarities to the protagonist from the *Chernobyl* miniseries,…
positive · AI labelView post →Today I am going to watch The Imitation Game. I'm going to do this at a special screening at Bletchley Park! The movie is ten years old, and I was there, on set, looking after (& advising on use of) the Enigma machine. I also taught Cumberbatch, Knightely & co. how to use it.
neutral · AI labelView post →1/5 Today marks the 10th anniversary of the US release of The Imitation Game on 14 Nov 2014. A beautiful, important film. In this scene, Alan Turing (portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch) and his colleagues at Bletchley Park finally cracked the code for the Enigma machine ⬇️

positive · AI labelView post →finished The Imitation Game! it was pretty solid, 8/10! I need more good movie recommendations! I like psychological horror a lot.
positive · AI labelView post →The Imitation Game movie, if accurate, reveals just how huge a hero Turing was, and how shabbily he was treated for his sexuality. A tragedy.
positive · AI labelView post →Just rewatched "The Imitation Game," Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing. Also looked up the honors Turing received, some actually within his lifetime. It's a haunting, extremely worthwhile film.
positive · AI labelView post →If you haven’t watched The Imitation Game, DO IT. What ultimately happened to Alan Turing, who is likely the key reason Hitler was defeated, is shameful. Excellent film.
positive · AI labelView post →yes it is British history but please don’t encourage people to watch The Imitation Game, a film so desperate to force a story into a Hollywood template that they made Commander Denniston a villain and Joan Clarke into a love interest for a gay man.
negative · AI labelView post →Alan Turing’s story was told in the Oscar nominated movie, The Imitation Game, starring Benedict Cumberbatch. For my taste, that film poorly served Turing’s homosexuality. I’d recommend instead Breaking the Code, with Derek Jacobi as Turing (and, briefly, me as a lover of his).
negative · AI labelView post →Excellent movie about him: “The Imitation Game” starring Benedict Cumberbatch.
positive · AI labelView post →The reason I was at Bletchley was unusual. I was there working on a movie - The Imitation Game, which stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Turing. He had, apparently, requested a mathematician to talk to, to help him play the character better -- and they wanted some mathematics for a notebook.
neutral · AI labelView post →I highly recommend the movie, "The Imitation Game" with Benedict Cumberbatch about him. Its really good but sad. 🥲
positive · AI labelView post →He mostlikely was also autistic, like me. The Imitation Game movie left out the important co-work of Polish agents regarding Enigma, but it moved me see deeply, for I found it eerily familiar, only that I root from lower social class and got called all but an odd duck (got called Duckwalker = feet)
