    Very good, yes, but to those that haven’t seen the movie or were not at all familiar with the man’s story yiz just ruined a big part of the bleedin’ movie, no?
    Tsk ,tsk !

    Spoiler Alert: He also doesn’t like sandwiches.

      Don’t be silly. The fact that Turing was gay is common knowledge. It’s how he was treated by the authorities that informs the story. No spoilers here.

        I’ve seen loads of posts online about that one, saying Jake Gyllenhaal was robbed by not getting an Oscar nod.
        I haven’t seen it, though.

          Jake Gyllenhaal was vey good at playing the role, but i can’t discuss why i think the movie itself was poo without ruining it for you. It is worth watching though but expect to be annoyed afterwards just like after you watch GoneGirl.

    No spoilers… The Assange Enigma film is hilariously bad and It doesn’t even deal with the gayness at all… a pretty pathetic level of storytelling for an interesting and complex character but hey, that’s what oscars beauty pageant is for.. actors who ham the shit out of everything for validation by way of a gold sex toy. Am looking forward to seeing a decent and complete documentary on Mr. Turing if I can find a good one.

    Nightcrawler crashes and burns by the end.. shame though, as it was good for the most part and mainly because of that it left me disappointed too.

    Batman on Broadway and The Anderson Family Go Wacky Races are both a good laugh… prob the best films nominated after The definitive and longest coming of age movie ever made… all worth seeing IYAM & looking forward to the Drum Machine…

    As usual, about a dozen really great films from 2014 are not even on their radar…
