The Imitation Game

This was pretty good but basically not "Academy Award" worthy or anything. Various alterations from history, mostly adding to a somewhat predictable stew including a beauty for the key woman role (she does well, even if not quite true to life). The key player in this Alan Turing centered film, e.g., was apparently not this smidgen away from autistic. Two supporting characters were in another film with a homosexual plot point. DVD commentary.

Update: Good commentary and a second showing suggests the film was very good (including technically) but I do think there is a certain predictable flavor overall.
