And IIRC with a female romantic interest... that to me was the worst offense. It was an awful movie all around.

- kadoban 2y agoI suspect it was pretty good if you don't know or care about Turing. But yeah, it pissed me off pretty bad.
- andrewflnr 2y agoAs I recall it was pretty clear what he was actually interested in, and it wasn't her, so it at least wasn't completely wrong on that particular point. I think it was explicitly sort of a show/cover relationship. But of course I saw it once a long time ago...
- kitd 2y agoI've not seen the movie, but Turing was engaged briefly to Joan Clark, a fellow cryptanalyst, and they were close friends. She knew about his homosexuality though so it would have been literally a marriage of convenience, probably not uncommon at that time.
