The Imitation Game is a historical drama about Alan Turing, the brilliant but socially awkward mathematician who leads a secret British codebreaking team at Bletchley Park during World War II to crack Germany’s Enigma cipher. He battles military bureaucracy and skeptical colleagues while designing an electromechanical “bombe” machine that can sift through Enigma’s daily key settings far faster than humans, eventually finding a way to exploit predictable phrases in German messages so the machine

The Imitation Game (2014) is a historical drama about Alan Turing, the brilliant but socially awkward mathematician who leads a secret British codebreaking team at Bletchley Park during World War II to crack the German Enigma cipher. Recruited by the government, Turing clashes with superiors and colleagues while building an electromechanical machine (a precursor to modern computers) that can sift through the staggering number of possible Enigma settings far faster than any human team. via @itsam
