    6:17 "there is no MI-6", "That's the spirit " 😎. What a boss. I thought he would say " yes, and we're not having this conversation

    I like that Turing thinks that he is not an Einstein but merely one of the best mathematicians in the world.
  • @mikeyh0
    Cumberbatch disappeared into the role. No Dr. Strange, no Sherlock Holmes, just Turing.
  • @danshowlund
    I love how he innocently smiles when Dance calls him a friend 😂
  • These two... I could watch going back and forth all day😊

    Incredible part of history recreated. Fantastic movie. All the actors in the movie were brilliant.
  • Nobody thought it was impossible. They thought it was infeasible to break the code every single day because of the number of possible settings. The Polish had done most of the work on the equipment to decrypt the settings… but the real accomplishment was from Traffic analysis. Identifying patterns in German communications that would have to always be the same words, which narrowed down the number of possible setting to just a few million. Something the computer Turing helped build could brute force in a matter of a few hours, with HALF of all solutions popping out in half that time. And then the part only alluded to in the film but that no one really talked about for 60 years, was the probability analysis that told British intelligence exactly how many of the intercepts they could act upon to thwart German operations, without German analysts being able to derive thru their own probability analysis that their codes were being routinely broken.

    Not quite true, the Polish had dissected Enigma machines before the Germans invaded, and secretly shipped them along with the data they gleaned off them to England at great peril. Even after the Polish Cryptographers were captured (and quite likely tortured) they never gave up their part in things, which prevented Germany from changing up to something else. Let's at the very least, give a moment of respect for the Polish patriots that died for a victory they never lived to see.

    Charles Dance talking to Turing like he’s Tyrian Lanister… 🙌 Mark Strong popping up as MI-6. JFC I need to rewatch this epic film! ❤️ Brilliant, and released before I truly understood these fantastic British actors. 🍻 🇬🇧

    One of the unfortunetly beautiful things that we witnessed during WW2 was humans coming together to find evil, even if they didn't carry a rifle, they did their part. This movie and Oppenheimer show it perfectly - scientists and britlliants minds who often disagreed with war and violence but knew what they had to do to save not only their own countrymen's lives, but the world entirely.
  • @ORF5519
    Love the stoic while enigmatic portrayal of the gentleman from MI-6; especially his "to the point" notice of how many sailors had died while they were having the conversation. He's one of the best in the film in my opinion.
  • @abbasrizvi9389
    The Dialog in this Movie is amazing!!! Turin is the British version of Sheldon Cooper.
  • @jameskelly8506
    Even if the movie isn't totally accurate, Cumberbatch is one great actor.

    I spent 15 years as a Traffic Analyst for the Air Force. The most meaningful work of my life
  • @steveg1961
    For me, this is one of those movies that became an instant "classic" upon my first viewing. And there's also the fact that the ending of the movie is both extremely sad, and makes you very angry if you have at least half a brain. It was one of those movies.

    This wasn't impossible. No symmetric cipher is impossible to break except a OTP rooted by a true-random feed (which is much harder than most think), and that only because the key is continuously random, therefore literally any cipher text can be an encryption of literally any plain text. Enigma was infeasible at best, and that only because the temporary fixed keyset domain was thought to change with a frequency that made it inhospitable to breakage. Even if a keyset was broken, it was useless only a few hours later. That all changed once common phrase analysis came into the picture. The Polish cryptographers, particularly Marian Rejewski, deserve a tremendous amount of credit, in fact most of it, for breaking Enigma. Had it not been for their research and development of techniques for breaking prior versions of Enigma the allies would have been completely screwed. Rejewski, Zygalski, and Różycki are considered timeless heroes in Poland, and rightfully so.

    Dr. Strange AND Ozymandias? Man they were serious weren't they.
