Imitation
Game
is a selected movie that we assigned to watch during Interior Architecture
Theories outing class. When a first time heard about this film, I had no idea
of what is this film all about, nor the genre. Since this film had been chose
as a movie we need to experience, I expect this movie to be an educational type
of movie. However, during watching the film I found out the genre of the film
is Historical Thriller movie. It based from the true story of main character
real life, Alan Turing been casted
by Benedict Cumberbatch. I amused and shocked with the first dialogue which is “are
you paying attention?” and it gave the feeling that the character was talking
to us since we should pay full attention because it is part of our assignment. The
film was revealing the top secret of Britain government during the World War II
by hired the secret agent to break the communication system of their counter
force.
The main
character of this film, Alan Turing was the genius, smart, intelligent and
brilliant mathematician during that century and a very naïve person. Throughout
the introduction of Alan Turing, it really shows how naïve he is that always
became a bully victim and always been ostracized by other. He had no friend
before he met someone who safe him and changed his life. During his education
period he always bullied by his schoolmate until one day someone named
Christopher safe him. Since that, he became close and secretly had a crush on Christopher.
Therefore, he decided to reveal and admit his true feeling to Christopher. Unfortunately,
instead of successfully reveal his feeling, he received the news that Christopher
died during the holiday. Even though the death news gave the big impact to him,
he never stops having the same feeling towards Christopher. Its shows when he
named the code breaker machine with late Christopher.
Throughout this movie,
I really respect how he determines to focus and to achieve his goal once he set
his mind on something. He was very confident in what his doing even he never
knows the challenges that he might encounter. I amuse with the way he successfully completed
the code breaker machine. Although he successfully achieves his goal, he had
been charge as a homosexual person, where in Britain it is an illegal issue. In
my opinion, Alan Turing was a homosexual affected by the factors that he went
though. He just put all his trust to Christopher and totally relied on him. That
is why he fallen for him. He just need somebody to turn to after he been
ostracized and been bullied. When the ending of the movie said that he committed
suicide, I feel we as a new generation really lost something precious. Maybe if
he still alive in this century, we will have a much more sophisticated computer
system. I really feel thankful to my lecturer for chose this movie to
experience. If not part of our assignment, I will never know about this movie.
