Review added of The Imitation Game, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley. This biopic of Alan Turing is beautifully constructed and tells the story of the Enigma machines in World War II. Turing built the computer that cracked the code, and won the war, but his life ended in shame then suicide. An excellent film.

Review of the compelling and harrowing 12 Years A Slave added. See link. The film won the Golden Globe for Best Picture, Drama yesterday. The superlatives are rolling over it. They’re all quite right too.
