In 1951, a well-dressed conversation between Alan Turing and Detective Robert Knucker in prison uncovered a secret that had been hidden for years.
Turing's room was robbed, but nothing was lost. The two detectives who came to investigate were also killed by Turing's unsurprising words, but Detective Knock did not lose his intuition as a police officer. He felt that the mysterious professor was preventing the detectives from investigating something, so he paid special attention to Turing's affairs. Nock arranges for someone to follow Turing until he catches a man near a tavern who is trading turing. Under interrogation, he learned that the secret Turing wanted to hide was his homosexual identity.
Nok, who thought he could catch evidence of Turing's treason against the enemy, was finally able to sit down and listen to Turing tell his story.
In The Imitation Game, Benedict's Turing is reminiscent of Sheldon, the same genius, the same unsophistication, and the same mouth that the angry people don't know. The biggest difference between the two is that Sheldon is a character created entirely by the screenwriter, while Turing, who lived in the world, lived in this world and made outstanding contributions to the end of World War II.
Of course, the real Turing emotional intelligence is not low enough to be disliked by all colleagues, and the part of his life that involves social difficulties should be the stuttering problem he has had since he was a child, rather than shooting language like a bullet at the people around him like a bullet in the play.
Of course, there are many places in the movie that do not match the historical facts. For example, Bletchley Garden was involved in the codebreaking work by far more than five or six people, but a team of people; Turing did not have a direct channel to Churchill, although Churchill once said that the person who should be most grateful for the victory in World War II was Turing; and they did not deliberately conceal it after deciphering Enigma, and then secretly guided the direction of the war. There is a saying in the film, "Everyone thinks that the Enigma code is indestructible", so in reality, turing and others did not hide after cracking the Enigma, but shared the information with the United States, which promoted the faster end of the war. The reason why the Germans did not expect Enigma to be cracked was not because the code was broken, but because they were overconfident in Enigma.
Despite this, it is undeniable that "Imitation Game" is indeed a very wonderful movie, a classic.
The male protagonist, Benedict Combermark, should be more familiar with his small volume. His own ties to Turing date back to the 14th century, when they were the 17th pro-congregation, and at the same time Cumberbatch graduated from the University of Manchester, where Turing had served as deputy director of the computer laboratory.
Adapted from Andrew Hodges's biography Alan Turing, "The Imitation Game" is a fact-based adaptation that somewhat stems from the meaning of life above life, such as amplifying Turing's social difficulties and hiding Turing's homosexual identity. Shu Zuojun only wants to talk about the movie today, put the original book aside, interested friends may find a way to read the original book.
During World War II in 1939, Germany declared war on Britain. Turing, a genius from The Mathematics Department at King's College Cambridge, came to apply for a job in the name of the Bletchley Radio Manufacturer, who was actually part of a secret organization of the British military. Although the whole process of applying for the job was indeed not very pleasant, after Turing Road broke the purpose of Lieutenant Colonel Denniston's recruitment, he successfully became a member of the small team that cracked Enigma.
Turing's unpopularity is not only in the interview, but also in teamwork.
He couldn't understand his colleagues telling him to eat, and he didn't understand the lieutenant colonel's mockery of him. Not to mention, he wanted a machine that could crack all the codes, while the rest of the team just tried to crack the day's codes every day. So after Turing designed the prototype of the Turing machine or Christopher, there was no support when he wanted to apply for a hundred thousand pounds to buy parts and equipment.
With no support, he chose to report the situation to Lieutenant Colonel Denniston's superior, Churchill. To everyone's surprise, Churchill put Turing in charge of the entire deciphering team. Turing's first act on the job was to fire two linguists and then recruit two more. Turing printed the puzzle in the newspaper, and those who could solve the puzzle could come with the newspaper to apply. Joan Clayk, who was late in the opening, became an important member of the decryption squad and a very important member of Turing's life.
Kleick, who originally wanted to refuse to work with a group of men for family reasons, came to Bletchley Park after Turing's persuasion. Although Kleke entered Lebcili, he did not directly enter the team of cracking Enigma because of his gender. Turing, when he was in trouble, had to sneak into Kleke's room at night to ask for help.
On the other side, Lieutenant Colonel Denniston led people rummaging through Turing's office in an attempt to find evidence that he was a double agent. Someone smuggled the stolen message to Russia in the form of Bill's code, and was deciphered by Hugh in the team, and the key was Matthew 7:7.
The lieutenant colonel felt more and more that his guess was correct, and Turing soon became the first suspect. But in fact, with his ability, it was impossible to use such a simple password to cause the East Window incident. It turns out that the folded page of the Bible that Turing inadvertently found on John's desk was Exactly the seventh verse of Matthew's Gospel. Who the traitor is, is about to come out.
However, not everyone can keep a clear head.
In the tavern, Turing is ostracized by everyone, and the only person at his side is Kleke. Fortunately, Kleick did not refuse to communicate with Hugh and others, and even helped Turing to have a good relationship with the rest of the team. Simple Apples and unsustainable cold jokes have gradually integrated him into the team, and Hugh has helped Christopher speed up his calculations. Still, Christopher's calculations were too slow to crack the code in eighteen hours.
Christopher failed again and again, and Lieutenant Colonel Denniston invested a hundred thousand pounds as if he had been adrift, without getting a single return, which made him lose his last patience with Turing, who was not optimistic about turing, and not only stopped investing in Turing, but also stopped his position. It was Hugh and the other three members of the team who insisted together and threatened to resign at the same time to save Turing. These men were the best declassification experts in britain, and if they were lost, the end of the war would be even more elusive. In the end, the two sides spent a month to decide whether Christopher was going to be destroyed.
But at this time, Kleick's parents wanted her to leave, because she was old and unmarried, and her parents began to worry. In a hurry, in order to keep Click, Turing chooses to propose to Kleick, which not only gives Kleick's parents an explanation, but also keeps Kleick by his side and helps him solve the problem of the Enigma code.
Turing did not know whether to confess his homosexuality to Kleke, although the UK's same-sex marriage law of 2014 came into force, but during World War II, gay men were crimes, and same-sex behavior was not a crime until the late 20th century.
Turing thought that he hid his sexual orientation very well, but he had already been seen through by John in the team, which also caused Turing to have a threatening chip when he discovered that John was a double-sided spy in Russia. Despite this, Turing chose to protect the country between protecting himself and protecting the country, telling Mi6's Stuart that John was a spy. Unexpectedly, John was stuart's man in Bletchley, deliberately revealing some information to Russia.
As the deadline draws nearer, everyone becomes more and more anxious. It wasn't until at the tavern, when Kleke's colleagues mentioned his "lover" in Germany, that Turing realized that there were fixed words in the Enigma code. Christopher only needs to decipher unknown letters based on known letters.
The Enigma code was finally cracked, but Turing decided that the cracked content could not be used directly to solve the attacks that would be launched on the existing battlefield. The Germans would realize that the code had been cracked, and once they replaced it with a new one, their two years of deciphering would become meaningless. Therefore, the information should be used in several battles that can more affect the outcome of the war, such as the "Normandy Landings", "The Defense of Stalingrad", and "The Battle of ardennes". However, this made them have to watch some people die, including the brother of the team member Pete.
Until the end of the war, everything was burned down, Enigma's decipherment was as if it had never happened, and several members of the team were scattered throughout the places. It wasn't until Turing's room was robbed that officer Knuck came to the attention of Officer Knuck and discovered that he was gay.
Turing was eventually convicted of indecent assault, and between two years in prison and chemical castration, he chose chemical castration and eventually died by suicide.
Turing in middle school became the object of bullying by his classmates because he was different. Pouring rice on his head and nailing him to the floor, Christopher, the only person who helped him, became not only his only friend in his youth, but also the teenager in Turing's heart who loved and could not get it.
The "I love you" that was not sent out made the love of the teenager completely stay at that moment. Therefore, he would ask if the machine could think in the essay "Imitation Game", and his machine was named Christopher, the boy he loved when he was young.
Turing's feelings for the machine are more like facing his lover, and every time the machine is destroyed, he desperately protects, seemingly to solve Enigma, but in fact he is fighting to protect the boy who died of illness in his heart. Just like he chose chemical castration, ostensibly to continue the experiment, but just didn't want this machine named Christopher to be taken away. During the study of Enigma, when Hugh was impulsive about destroying Christopher because Turing did not participate in deciphering and only studied the machine, Turing also blocked the machine with his body regardless of his own safety. His love for the machine "Christopher" is more due to the ambiguous complex between him and his first love friend when he was young, and it is Christopher's encouragement to him that makes him so enthusiastic about solving puzzles.
So in a strict sense, the greatest help to the end of the war should be Christopher, it is a machine, it is the teenager, but also Turing's love and cherished beautiful feelings.
