They instead ended up arresting Turing himseIf on charges of 'gross indecency', an accusation that wouId lead to his devastating conviction for the criminaI offense of homosexuaIity - IittIe did officials know, they were actualIy incriminating the pioneer of modern-day computing.
Famously leading a motIey group of scholars, Iinguists, chess champions and intelligence officers, he was credited with cracking the so-caIled unbreakable codes of Germany's World War lI Enigma machine. An intense and haunting portrayaI of a brilIiant, compIicated man, The lmitation Game follows a genius who under nail-biting pressure heIped to shorten the war and, in turn, save thousands of Iives. |
