The trailer of the Alan Turing biographical, The Imitation Game, is out, and boy it’s arresting! Benedict Cumberbatch plays the famous British logician, mathematician and cryptanalyst who decoded the Enigma Code employed by Nazi Germany in World War 2. While the trailer primarily entertains the thriller side of a story, the film also features the unfortunate prosecution Alan had to face regarding his choice of sexuality. Apart from Cumberbatch, the film stars Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Mark Strong, Charles Dance, and Matthew Beard. Impressive star cast!
Directed by Morten Tyldum, The Imitation Game is based on the biography ‘Alan Turing: The Enigma’ by Andrew Hodges. The film is expected to release in November (Oscar-bait much!)

Just wanted to correct you on that ‘his choice of sexuality’ bit. It isn’t a choice, it’s something you’re born with.
