MUST WATCH: "The Imitation Game" Peek

The first trailer for the long-awaited awards contending biopic "The Imitation Game" is here...and it sure makes the whole film look really good...


The film deals with Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch), an English mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst, computer scientist, criminally prosecuted and chemically castrated homosexual, and tortured soul who committed suicide by eating a cyanide-laced apple. Turing was highly influential in the founding of computer science and artificial intelligence, along with devising techniques for breaking German ciphers during the World War II. He was also one of the earliest to explore the biological process of morphogenesis.

Downton Abbey star Allen Leech plays a Scottish spy who worked with the Soviets to plot against Turing. Mark Strong Keira Knightley Matthew Goode, Rory Kinnear and Charles Dance also star.

Graham Moore’s script is based on the biography by Andrew Hodges.

Teddy Schwarzman, Nora Grossman and Ido Ostrowsky will produce.

Throughout it's history J Blakeson became attached to direct....after Ron Howard who was reportedly interested in directing the film in 2011 and wanted Leonardo DiCaprio to play Turing but moved on---and as a result of Leo's decision the studio let go of the rights. Now--Scandinavian director Morten Tyldum called action.

The film has a release date of Nov 21, 2014
