“THE IMITATION GAME”

Directed by: Morten Tyldum


Studio Company: Weinstein Co.

The movie “The Imitation Game” slightly boring in the first place (as my opinion) but the
movie goes on was quite enjoying and give us an idea about our lesson in the subject. The main
characters are Alan Turing and Joan Clarke brings the movie to a cinematic moment.

The movie is a historical drama that explores the role that cryptologists and
mathematicians played in World War II. Expect candid discussions about lives lost during war,
accompanied by footage showing bombs falling and soldiers firing guns. A boy (Alan Turing) is
also tormented by school bullies. Leading the team of scientists trying to break the Germans'
Enigma code is Alan Turing, a closeted homosexual who ends up being vilified for his sexuality.
But, his team has a power of persistence and the fact that gender doesn't dictate intelligence or
competency. Begins in 1939, when London is in the clutches of Nazi Germany. In Britain, air raids
have become a way of life, and thousands of soldiers are dying on the battlefield. To fight its
enemies, the British government recruits the country's best mathematicians and scientists to help
break the code for the Enigma, a machine the Germans use to send instructions to their military
personnel.

Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch), a Cambridge-educated cryptologist who, with a


team of mathematicians Joan Clarke (Keira Knightley), only women on the project sets out to
crack Enigma and its secrets. But Alan Turing holds a secret of his own: He's gay. And he may
be attacked by his peers, and the government, for that fact. Alan Turing joins a team of fellow
intellectuals composed of mathematicians, linguists, professors, and even chess champions
(played by the likes of Matthew Goode, Allen Leech, and Matthew Beard) who are placed in
the charge of Commander Alistair Denniston (Charles Dance) of the British Empire at the
Government Code and Cypher School in Bletchley Park.

In the scenes I’d liked most, when Alan Turing got the hint of cryptanalysis to break the
code of the machine that leads their team into brilliant ideas in encrypting the message in that
time of era. I don’ t like some of the scenes talks boring as part of the watchers and it would have
been better if the movie had attempted to show the project's elaborateness, rather than simplifying
it for the screen.

The moral lesson of the movie was that, do not commit bullying to anyone. Accept gender
equality in the society to those who are just like Alan Turing because some of them may be commit
suicide when they got into depression. Also, we do not limit and degreed anyone’s ability.

I recommended it to the people who are inspired in learning being crypto analogist and
mathematician. And the film was rated to me into SPG because some of the scene was not
suitable to all viewers under age because the movie like bullying and committing suicide may be
adopt by the below age viewer. But the movie was good!

The movie helped me to easily understand the subject was being discussed through film
viewing strategy by explaining and give an idea in the reality of study or actual lesson how it goes.

“THE IMITATION GAME”

The Imitation Game was directed by Morten Tyldum and reproduced by Studio Weinstein

Company. The movie was so interesting because it was related to our subject in the since that

our topic was all about cryptology. The main characters of the movie are Alan Turing, a

cryptozoologist and Joan Clarke his fiancé, who helps him to encrypt the code of the machine.

The story is basically based on the importance of the contribution of Alan Turing. He

voluntarily helped to solved the Enigma code by doing his own idea machine called ‘Cristopher’

(he named it to his bestfriend Cristopher Morcom) and also the helped of his other team member

in cryptography during the World War II. He encounter many challenges in doing his machine but

still he continue working on it. The beginning of the movie, we see two cops head into Alan

Turing's home to investigate a robbery at Turing's place. They walk in to see Turing crouched on

the floor and sweeping up some spilled cyanide in powder form. All around him is strewn the

paraphernalia of chemistry lab experiments. Turing is disdainful of the cops and tells them that

there is nothing to investigate. We later learn that Turing's home was burgled by the friend of a

man who he had possibly spent the night with. The burglar broke into Turing's home knowing full

well that Turing was already under investigation for his homosexuality, which was illegal in Great

Britain, so he felt that Turing would never complain to the authorities.

“THE IMITATION GAME”

The movie was essential mysteries intact, but they will nonetheless find even the most

public contours his story ripe with drama, excitement and deeply affecting resonance. The

Imitation Game was directed by Morten Tyldum and reproduced by Studio Weinstein

Company.

It’s a tragic story made all the more so by the enormity of Turing’s contributions not only

to the war effort but to the technological advances of the 20th century. Gracefully directed by

Morten Tyldum from a scrupulously accessible script by Graham Moore, “The Imitation Game”

locates Turing within a familiar cinematic line of idiosyncratic geniuses (we recently met another

in the person of Eddie Redmayne’s Stephen Hawking) whose gaffes and tics mask hidden

philosophical wellsprings and primal wounds. In the filmmakers’ telling, Turing’s brilliance is

somehow associated with his habit, as a schoolboy, of separating his vegetables into

compulsively arranged color-coded piles. “Mother says I’m just an odd duck,” he intones at one

point. Those formative years also coincided with his first love, for a schoolmate named

Christopher, whose spirit inspires Turing decades later when he constructs the box of whirring

cogs, rotors and disks whose steady, metronomic clicks just might save millions of lives.

That Turing himself is a puzzle and that he finds it so difficult to break the signs and social

codes of his colleagues are just two gentle ironies of “The Imitation Game,” in which the more

challenging technical and conceptual details of Turing’s work are given far less emphasis than

the emotional tug of his story and the thriller-like race against time with the Germans. Tyldum has

assembled an outstanding group of actors to portray the intelligence officials and researchers

who joined Turing at storied Bletchley Park during the war, including Keira Knightley as Joan

Clarke, Mark Strong as MI6 chief Stewart Menzies, and Matthew Goode and Allen Leech as fellow

codebreakers to whom Turing feels unapologetically superior; he even suggests that the entire

team be fired, so that he may use their salaries to work more efficiently. The person Turing relates

to best is Clarke, who as a woman isn’t allowed to see the classified material the men are working

with, and whose struggles with sexism subtly mirror Turing’s own with homophobia. They make

a poignant pair, each embodying the enormous social cost of irrational biases and hatreds, with

Cumberbatch especially giving an otherwise tetchy, annoyingly arrogant character a welcome

dose of humanizing sympathy.

I like most of the whole story of the movie when Alan Turing got the code of the in

encrypting the message to open the machine. He brings them apples by way of an awkwardly

proffered peace offering.

The moral lesson of the movie was that, it is good to work as a team in every project we

make in a company.

“THE IMITATION GAME”

“The Imitation Game” is a highly conventional movie about a profoundly unusual man. This

is not entirely a bad thing. Alan Turing’s tragically shortened life. He was 41 when he died in 1954

is a complex and fascinating story, bristling with ideas and present-day implications, and it

benefits from the streamlined structure and accessible presentation of modern prestige cinema.

The science is not too difficult, the emotions are clear and emphatic, and the truth of history is

respected just enough to make room for tidy and engrossing drama.

An Alan Turing biopic is, all in all, a very welcome thing. Chances are that you are reading

this, as I am writing it, on a device that came into being partly as a result of papers Turing

published in the 1930s exploring the possibility of what he called a “universal machine.” His

decisive contribution to the breaking of the Nazi Enigma code gave the Allied forces an

intelligence advantage that helped defeat Germany, though the extent of his wartime role was

kept secret for many years. The secret of his homosexuality was revealed when he was arrested

on indecency charges in 1952, caught up in a Cold War climate of homophobia and political

paranoia and subjected to the pseudoscientific cruelty of the British judicial system.

“THE IMITATION GAME”

The movie was so inspiring true life story of Alan Turing is much stranger, sadder and
more troubling than the version of it on view in The Imitation Game, Morton Tyldum’s handsome
but over laundered biopic. Turing was the British mathematician and cryptanalyst whose team
helped crack the Nazis’ theretofore-unbreakable Enigma code with a machine that would become
a prototype for the modern computer. A few years after his team was instrumental in hastening
the Allies’ victory in WWII, Turing was arrested for the crime of being a practicing homosexual
under Britain’s then-draconian anti-sodomy law. Given the choice of prison time or chemical
castration, he chose the latter, and two years later committed suicide at the age of 41.

The Imitation Game’s script, adapted by first-time screenwriter Graham Moore from a
1983 biography by Andrew Hodges, deals with the harrowing end of its subject’s life only in a brief
flash of onscreen text before the credits. After the carefully calibrated uplift of the last two hours,
it would have seemed discordant to end on the image of the lifelong misfit Turing—played with
fierce but restrained intensity by a never-better Benedict Cumberbatch—poisoning himself with a
cyanide-laced apple. A recent inquest suggests that Turing’s death might possibly have been an
accident, but this film sticks with the prevailing theory that he committed suicide, though the
method goes discreetly unmentioned. It’s telling that The Imitation Game chooses to elide this
jarring detail, ending instead on images from an earlier moment of triumph and celebration.

I like most of the movie when Alan Turing got the code of the in encrypting the message

to open the machine. So far, I don’t like some of the scenes in the movie at the last part of the

movie.

The tragic circumstances that befell Alan Turing, the film’s central hero, who brings victory
to the Allies by inventing a revolutionary machine that would give birth to the computer age. He
would later be publicly vilified and savagely punished for engaging in homosexual activity, which
was criminalized in England at the time, before committing suicide in 1954.

This atypical biopic about the brilliant, impossibly arrogant and socially awkward
mathematician (played by Benedict Cumberbatch, impeccably perfect in every way) is a
somewhat hard read at first. Most likely, it was the intent of screenwriter Graham Moore to make
a puzzle out a film about puzzle solving. That is not necessarily a bad thing, however, once the
pieces fall into in place. The fractured narrative starts off as a mystery in 1951 with a detective
investigating a burglary at Turing’s home where, strangely, nothing was stolen. Eventually, the
plot flashes back to 1928 and shifts into a heart-breaking love story as a teen Turing, a brutally
bullied school-boy prodigy, chastely falls for a fellow classmate named Christopher. But
“The Imitation Game” is most on its game when it primarily sticks to being a John le Carre-lite
espionage version of “Revenge of the Nerds,” beginning in 1939 as it introduces a battleground
of the mind that relies on superior intellect rather than bombs to beat the enemy. Norwegian
director Morten Tyldum in his English-language debut provides just enough science to explain
what is at stake while escalating the beat-the-clock tension involved in the mission conducted by
Turing and a handful of other high-IQ cohorts. Alexandre Desplat’s hauntingly propulsive score
further enhances the suspense while capturing the gravity of the situation.

I like most of the movie when festooned with a chest full of medals, the closeted genius
who saved countless lives by significantly shortening the war was cruelly subjected to chemically-
induced castration in lieu of jail time. And, because much of the details were kept classified for 50
years, few knew of the extent of his wartime feats, even though he was awarded the Order of the
British Empire for his services in 1945. He was officially pardoned of his offenses by Queen
Elizabeth in 2013—a case of too little too late.

“THE IMITATION GAME”

The Imitation Game provides glimpses into three periods of Turing's life as a means of
fleshing out aspects of his character. A majority of the running time is devoted to his years at
Bletchley Park, where he worked as a codebreaker seeking to undermine the German Enigma.
The success of his efforts provided the Allies with full access to all secret German war
transmissions. As part of a small group of experts that included Hugh Alexander (Matthew
Goode), Joan Clarke (Kiera Knightley), John Cairncross (Allen Leach), and Peter Hilton (Matthew
Beard), Turing served two masters: the military commander, Denniston (Charles Dance), and the
man from MI6, Stewart Menzies (Mark Strong). The 1939-1945 scenes are presented in flashback
using a framing device from 1952 after Turing was arrested for "gross indecency." (He was
eventually convicted of the charge and elected to be chemically castrated rather than go to jail.)
Finally, there are more distant flashbacks from the late 1920s that depict Turing (played in these
sequences by Alex Lawther) as a bullied student who is beginning to recognize his sexuality and
experiencing his first crush.

Benedict Cumberbatch's performance as Turing is spot-on, capturing the obsessive need


that defines many great minds facing a monumental challenge. Cumberbatch doesn't portray
Turing as a likeable or sympathetic character; his approach is very much "warts and all." Turing
is cold and awkward around others (the movie finds some comedy in a sequence when he makes
a clumsy attempt to win over his compatriots) and more comfortable working with his machine
(dubbed "Christopher") than with the four humans on his team. Through Cumberbatch's
interpretation, we see the brilliance, arrogance, loneliness, and self-imposed isolation of one of
the Allies' most unsung war heroes.

The Imitation Game wisely doesn't attempt to provide a detailed explanation of Turing's
work. To do so would have forced the movie down a rabbit hole where only the most technically
savvy viewers could have followed. Instead, it relies on generalizations, the most important of
which is that "Christopher" represents an early prototype of machines that would eventually
become known as "computers." (ENIAC, the first electronic general-purpose computer, was
based on Turing's design.) Instead of using valuable screen time detailing
mathematical/engineering problems and solutions, The Imitation Game concentrates on the
interpersonal relationships among the team members and how the four men and one woman
interact with their superiors.

I like the scene, at one point during the film, Turing and his fellows are faced with an
impossible dilemma. One of the first things they learn upon breaking Enigma is that the Germans
are massing their U-Boats for an attack on an Allied convoy. The choice faced by those at
Bletchley is simple: inform the military of their findings and save the convoy (thereby tipping off
the Germans that Engima has been compromised) or sequester the information so the font of
information isn't cut off. Decoding the Enigma messages becomes as much about what to act
upon as discerning the truth.

The Imitation Game is a war movie where no battlefields are shown and no guns are fired. It
illustrates the important concept that, even in the 1940s, scientists, engineers, and
mathematicians fought on a hidden front that eventually changed the tide of battle. Like Robert
Oppenheimer, the "father of the atomic bomb", Turing faced moral predicaments associated with
his role. In the end, however, the genius behind all the innovations of Bletchley was destroyed by
the pettiness of a society that didn't understand him. The Imitation Game doesn't hide this dark
aspect and it makes the production sobering and engrossing.

The moral lesson of the movie was that do things before its too late.

I recommended the movie to watch everyone. And the movie was rated to me into SPG
because some of the scene needs some parental guidance to teenager viewers because the
movie contains bullying and committing suicide. But the movie was nice!

“THE IMITATION GAME”

"Imitation Game" goes back and forth between three time periods, starting in 1952 in
Manchester with a startling monologue ("Pay close attention, I will not pause, I will not repeat
myself" is how it begins) that Turing delivers to a busybody police detective (Rory Kinnear) during
the interrogation that follows his arrest for "gross indecency."
Things then flash back to 1939 at Bletchley Park, the site of Turing's code-breaking exploits and
the film's central location, as well as retreating even further in time to Turing's miserable 1929
schoolboy days at the Sherborne School.
Giving Turing's wartime exploits, as well as the entire film, the unexpected pacing of a thriller is
the work of Norwegian director Morten Tyldum, whose crackling "Headhunters,"adapted from the
novel by Jo Nesbo, became the highest-grossing film in that country's history.

The wartime sections of "Imitation Game" open with Turing, as he often was, in an
adversarial mode. Only 27 but one of the world's best mathematicians, he has come down to
Bletchley Park to offer his services as a code breaker, but the spit-and-polish man in charge,
Cmdr. Denniston (a splendidly apoplectic Dance), takes an instant dislike to him and is about to
show him the door — until he mentions Enigma.
Nazi Germany's code creator, the super-secret Enigma machine was considered all but
unbreakable because of the millions of options possible for the codes it created daily. Turing
believes he knows how to beat it, but it won't be easy.

The scene I like most when it good as he's been in the past, however, the richness and complexity
of Turing's character make this portrayal of an arrogant, difficult, sure-of-himself individual the role
of Cumberbatch's career. His performance makes Turing accessible, even palatable, and gives
us a sense of how smart, how impossible, yet how finally human was this man whose idea of a
compliment was to say, "That is not an entirely terrible idea."

“IMITATION GAME”

Imitation Game a movie based on the biography of Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew Hodges.
Benedict Cumber batch acts as the British cryptanalyst, Alan Turing. Who helped solve the world
greatest and most difficult puzzle, the ENIGMA, during the World War II and later sentenced to
indecency because of being homosexual.

The Great War and it shows us what Allan Turing contribute as often without fear just to solve the
difficult puzzle and proved that he is great.

Turing and his with co-workers went through a lot before finally been able to break the Enigma.
Turing doesn’t speak German but it was never a hindrance for him not to encrypt the enigma
code. At first, his co-workers don’t believe and trust him that the machine that he made could
break the code. But in the end he proved them wrong and managed to break the code.

The movie had taught us a lot of lessons. First, bullying someone doesn’t do anything good most
especially to the one who’s being bullied. Alan Turing was victim and it caused him not to trust
people. Second, even though how smart and great you are, you still need someone who will help
and be there with you. Joan Clarke made Alan Turing realized that their team couldn’t break those
codes if they do not cooperate with each other. So he made a move so his co-workers will trust
him and his machine.

One quote from the movie had caught my attention. It was from Joan Clarke. She says
“Sometimes it is the people no one imagines of, who do the things that no one can imagine”. She
said those words to Alan when he wished to be just a normal person. True to her words, Alan
Turing had made the biggest change, which is good, in his nation and to the world. Alan Turing
had made a machine that helped their nation bigtime. It saddens me that even though he made
such accomplishment, they still judged him because of his sexuality. In fact it doesn’t really
matter, If I were them, I would be happily congratulate and thank him for what he had done for
the nation. But I’m not them, so I think it really matters.

The movie is such a great open-minder for the people. It tells us the importance of the contribution
of Alan Turing during the Second World War. If not because of him and his team, many other lives
would be taken and many places would be destroyed. If not because of him, the war maybe have
got much worst and the whole history of the world would change.

The Imitation Game is the true story of Mr. Alan Turing. He is the Father of Modern Computer, A
Great Mathematician and Computer Scientist.
This story talks about how Alan Turing helps the secret Agent to win the war for England against
Nazi German. Alan Turing stated that “Something it is the people no one can imagine anything of
who do the things no one can imagine”. Who can imagine that the unbreakable Enigma can be
break by the skills of Alan Turing who created the first digital computer can cracked the message.
The Nazi Germany is using the type of cryptic messages to each other to plan attacks or strategies
change, these cryptic messages are known as the ENIGMA code.
In 1939, he joined the team, a team where creating a solution to crack the Enigma. Mr. Turing
design a digital computer and name it “Christopher” based in his best friend name when he his
High school time. Christopher died because of Tuberculosis.
In 1941, Joan join the team to help and to try to solve the mathematical equation so Christopher
can run through more setting per 18 hour block. Joan past the Examination made by Mr. Turing
for fastest to solve the crossword puzzle. Alan is engage with Joan but Alan tells something to
one of his teammate and admit that he is a Homosexual.

In 1954, the government mandated hormonal therapy, Mr. Alan Turing committed suicide on June
7th At the age 41 years old. In 1942, the team tried to crack the message but then the buzzer
sounds. The machine will never be able to process so many possibilities in an 18-hour time. But
one of the friend of Joan having a conversation to Alan. Alan got an idea while they talking. He
notice that there is lacking process of his machine so it can’t crack the message. He run right
away back to his lab to figure it out. The team was not failed. The super machine cracks the
message.

It is 1951, in Manchester, England. Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) Headquarters intercepts a
message that Alan Turing has been robbed at his place. Alan, now known as a professor at
Cambridge, is visited by the police inquiring about his burglary. They find him in his home but he
is dismissive towards them. They mention that he is an insufferable person and are suspicious
that he is hiding something.
The detective finds out that Alan's records are classified. He doesn't know why a math professor
would have classified records and becomes suspicious. Detective Nock shares with
Superintendent that Alan's classified military file is empty. His war records aren't classified;
someone has burned and erased them. They suspect he is a Soviet spy.
Detective Nock and Superintendent are told by a sergeant that he has found out that Alan is a
"poofter" (British slang for homosexual). He has been caught with a male hustler, who later robbed
his house. That was the piece of information that he was hiding from the police, not that he's a
spy. The detective is sure Alan is hiding something else so he asks for him to be arrested so he
can interrogate him.

The movie The Imitation Game has received more than a hundred major nominations, including
Golden Globe and Oscar nominations for the lead actor, Benedict Cumberbatch, as well as a
Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination for Best Picture of the year.
And I think the recognition is merited; it is an amazing movie.
More than that, it’s a story that needs to be told.
Before we went to see the movie, I knew a little about Alan Turing, the subject of this biographical
film. I knew that he was considered the father of modern computers, I knew he worked in
cryptography, and I knew he was gay.
I’m ashamed to admit there’s so much more that I didn’t know!

I was fascinated at the story of Turning and his team’s work to break the German code, in order
to bring the Second World War to swift close. Without the help of modern technology, they built a
“computer” to decipher it.
Now it saddens me that his life, his work and his contributions are largely unknown by the general
population...particularly since we enjoy a freedom that he helped achieve and we daily use
electronic devices that trace their origin back to his work.

that after his successful decryption, which was estimated to have saved millions of lives and
helped end the war, he was convicted in 1952 of...being a homosexual.
Clarification: The actual crime was “Gross Indecency,” which had nothing to do with a specific
action, or being caught in a lewd act. It was a conviction that came from what's known as
the Labouchère Amendment. Unlike previous British laws against homosexual behavior, this new
provision did not require evidence of actual (penetrative) sex for prosecution. Thousands were
tried and convicted (e.g., Oscar Wilde) while many chose suicide over arrest and exposure
Obviously I can’t relate to that kind of mistreatment, and it wasn't this aspect of the movie that
brought my unexpected response. Living in America in the 21th Century affords me somewhat
greater freedom of expression. However, I do understand the challenges of an oppressive society.
While things have changed significantly in this country, many people can still lose their jobs, or
be denied housing, just for being gay. Regrettably, we have those religious extremists who want
to restore imprisonment and harsh treatments for homosexuals, and even more regrettable, some
of them are regularly elected to public office.

The movie “The Imitation Game” impressed me because it was true story. the
chaos was so dramatic should I say.

Alan Turing was gay at a time when homesexual activity was outlawed in
England. In 1952, he was convicted of “gross indecency.” (He admitted to being
gay but pled not guilty because he thought the law was unjust.) He was sentenced
to probation that involved chemical castration and committed suicide within two
years with cyanide.

The filmmakers decided not to include the suicide in the movie even though
they filmed the scene. Benedict Cumberbatch explained to the press at New York
City’s 92Y that in the film’s last scene, “Someone telling something he never had
told to him in his life: That he did matter, the fact that he was regarded as different
and not normal was hugely important to the world and to everybody around him. No
one had told him that in his life. So to end it on that note, with someone explaining,
was our way of thanking him in the structure of the film, our eulogy to him.”

The moral lesson of the movie was that, do not commit bullying to anyone. Accept
gender equality in the society to those who are just like Alan Turing because some of
them may be commit suicide when they got into depression. Also, we do not limit and
degreed anyone’s ability.

I recommended it to the viewers who are LGBT who believed himself in everything
he does. But the movie was persuaded.

The Imitation Game is entertaining and well-crafted, but one still can’t help but
wish the drama had a bit more bite and nerve throughout.

The Imitation Game wants for verisimilitude. Wartime England should look dingier,
and Turing’s friendship with his smitten mathematician colleague Joan Clarke (Keira
Knightley) needn’t lurch into melodrama. Arrogant, testy, and vulnerable, Cumberbatch’s
Turing is the most convincing of the real-life Bletchleyites. Dance makes a blustering
heavy of Denniston, who attempts to sabotage Turing’s electromagnetic “bombe”
machine, designed to decipher Enigma-encrypted Morse messages. Knightley invests
Clarke with overtly fiery glamour (though her defiance of GCHQ’s sexist culture is handled
amusingly). Mark Strong is a droll human enigma as MI6 chief Stewart Menzies. Matthew
Goode plays Hugh Alexander, the Bletchley operations manager, as a volatile lady killer
who warms to the iconoclastic Turing when Turing’s results justify his repudiation of
Bletchley’s lumbering code-breaking methodology.

The moral lesson of the movie was that, do not commit bullying to anyone. Accept
gender equality in the society to those who are just like Alan Turing because some of
them may be commit suicide when they got into depression. Also, we do not limit and
degreed anyone’s ability.

I recommended it to the viewers who believed himself in everything he does. And


the movie was highly motivated.
