Imitation Game, The
horizontal line

Terrific acting dominates this Oscar-nominated, intriguing, fascinating, factually based, 114-minute film based on Andrew Hodges's novel Alan Turing: The Enigma in which eccentric, socially awkward, gay, brilliant English mathematician and logician Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) is reluctantly hired by a skeptical British military commander (Charles Dance) in 1939 to decode Nazi messages during WWII and ends up working with an eclectic team (Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, James Northcote, and Matthew Beard) and an MI6 agent (Mark Strong) to build the Christopher machine that would decipher encrypted Enigma messages, which would ultimately be instrumental in the English and its allies winning the war against the Germans.
