I haven't seen the Imitation Game, but did view the
trailer and what I saw there left me with the sense while it might be fine as
entertainment, the historical inaccuracies would be annoying.
Yup, and you would have been right. I can accept MOST of
the changes due to
dramatic license, etc. But, the part where Turing HIMSELF
decides what info can
be acted on is so FAR out of touch! Churchill PERSONALLY
had to make some
of the toughest decisions, such as to not evacuate Coventry
when they knew it
was next for getting blitzed.
