Very skilfully screenwritten by Graham Moore (a virtual beginner, who won the Oscar), based on Andrew Hodges' book, most successful film is beautifully performed by Benedict Cumberbatch, Kiera Knightley (both nominated), Mark Strong (who's terrific, every bit as good as Benedict), Charles Dance (getting great parts in the later years of his career), Matthew Goode, Allen Leech (Downton), Matthew Beard, Rory Kinnear (wonderful) and Alex Lawther (as the young Turing).
Alexandre Desplatt's music and William Goldenberg's editing were also nominated. Photographed in Panavision by Oscar Faura. Tyldum made Headhunters - they couldn't find a Brit to make quintessentially British movie.
It's a shocking story about what we did to one of our heroes.
