Actually the film isn't the historical version of cracking Enigma , because Polish scientists had a more important role in cracking enigma than Turing . And in the film they are simply " forgotten "
They are mentioned once , they say they smuggled Enigma out of Poland. In reality Polish mathematicians (notably Marian Rejewski, Jerzy Rozycki and Henryk Zygalski) succeeded in breaking early Enigma codes in 1932 and passed their findings to British counterparts shortly before the war began. Poles also taught Turing how to build machines that simulated the Enigma machine.
You what, mate? What Turing did for the field of Computer Science is amazing, regardless of whether or not the film is otherwise correct. See Turing machines and Artificial intelligence etc.
God I love Alexandre Desplat's work. He writes such mesmerisingly beautiful songs. I have so many soundtracks that he's composed for movies simply because the music is so beautiful
Listening to this makes me think of Alan Turing and I feel so angry and ashamed that such a great man was prosecuted and basically forced to suicide because people couldn't accept his sexuality. It's just so sad and horrible how all of his efforts in breaking the Nazi code was completely overshadowed by him being a homosexual and how it's "against nature and God" to the point that he's not even mentioned in any history class. This just makes me so angry I can't stand it.
@Akira Yang you know what I can't stand, people who don't do their research. It is not proven that Alan committed suicide it is also possible and likely that he died by accident because exposure to a deadly chemical. He also died a few months after he went off his medication meaning the drugs were no longer in affect. As for not being made famous at the time, that was because they were afraid a war would break out again, like what happened between world war 1 and 2, if he was made famous at the time the axis would not use enigma meaning al the work building the decoding machine would have to start again. And if he did commit suicide maybe part of the reason was that he went through one of the worst wars in history. Last little side note he appeared to be quite happy the weeks before he died
@@gerickdekruijf8592 I also cannot stand how people do their research! Alan Turing's suicide was over an apple with cyanide on it, his favorite tale was Snow White. Why go through such lengths if it was a murder? The first computer had JUST been made, a murderer would just do it normally and make it look like a suicide. In response to your side note, the fact that he was appearing to be happy weeks before he died proves absolutely nothing, depressed people usually appear enthusiastic in public, apologies but that part is irrelevant-- and no offense, but a little ignorant.
Wonderful music - amazing film. I hated history in high school but as I have grown older, it has become a passion of mine. I cannot imagine how anyone can not watch this film and NOT find it a treasure. IT really is remarkable the technologies that helped the allied forces to win this terrible war. This film highlights one of the stories that helped in the turning point of the war. I cannot explain how satisfied I was at the end of the this film - a great story but the fact it was based on actual events makes it all the more remarkable.
What is omitted is that high level communications used a separate cipher that was much more complex(exponentially). This was cracked by another man whose name I can not recall and was much more significant. To solve it a much more complex machine was invented. The existence of it was only recently declassified due to the sheer power of the machine. Unlike the Universal Turing Machine, it printed out plaintext when cipher text was input. This does not discount the facts that this was a great movie. While Turing's work was more influential than the work of this other individual, it was not as extensive. I do believe the man worked with him at Bletchley
Listening to this soundtrack while studying for exams will make you feel like a genius first discovering the things you're reading about. Best way to get motivation to study, it hasn't failed me once.
I actually like in the movie when the song starts, the train whistle... sounds like some1 screaming... creepy... but kinda the cool sinister mysterious creepy...
Gee, thanks for being such a jerk towards someone trying to reference that quote from the movie but didn't look it up exactly. Not everyone is going to be exactly right, so don't kill the mood because of it.
De vez em quando eu ouço essa soundtrack, me traz boas lembranças da época em que esse filme foi lançado. Espetacular a capacidade humana de transmitir tudo em musica!
This was a great movie, yet, while I won't call it forgettable because it is far from that, it doesn't stick in my head quite to the extent of its brilliant score. It's a well made film no doubt, but I think it just felt like another Oscar grab to me, which is the reason I went to see it in the first place. Maybe I'll remember it more fondly upon second viewing, because I can't seem to place it as of now.
The film is not even remotely connected with History. Alan Turing, alongside all the other characters and situations, is completely misrepresented. Descendants are deeply offended, and the real people behind the characters must all be revolving in their tombs. Great ST.
Irene Rincón oh please... Alan's nephew and other praised the film saying that it did justice to him. The only.person who was offended was Clark's relative cause Keira looked too glamourous for the role.
Irene, I suggest you start reading some history. While the movie is somewhat fictionalized for dramatic effect, the facts regarding Turing, enigma, the machine (Christopher), and Britain's criminal act of charging him with indecency are all true. He was one of the most brilliant minds of the early 20th century and his suicide was preempted by the British lawmakers and their pixie minded intolerance.
After watching this movie I couldn't believe we hadn't learned about Alan Turning in history class.

Waffles252 we skimmed WWII in 2 hours and didn't cover the Blitz or the Schutzstaffel, whereas the Great Depression got 4 hours.
Well said!

Dude that and the Danish Girl pretty much makes me feel sadness that society perceives such things with such contempt even today.
"Against nature and god" That's the only thing I need to become irreligious.

just hearing the music makes me think about Alan Turing and then i cry
Tara Drake me too!
It's so sad ! A genius who saved the world was killed because he was homosexual !
omg same
Perfect song for perfect story
Love them strings. Really brings you back into the time the film was set in.
While I'm writing my graduation work about Alan Turing it's amazing to listen to this score. So inspirational.

Van Myers Fascinating - please get back to us if the name comes to you!
MrNodrog9991 I let you imagine the shitstorm Fortitude was given what we learn with this movie
MrNodrog9991 Based being the key word here. It is a great film but concessions to fact were definitely made for time and drama.
+Van Myers Bill Tutte and Tommy Flowers who made the first computer, forgotten by history heroes of our time.
Watching this film left me with a profound respect for Alan, and a deep anger over what they did to him and others like him.
Hearing this soundtrack while walking towards your math's exam hall #gonnaacethisexam
+Farhan Magray i feel you 100%
+Farhan Magray Lmao yessssss XD
+Farhan Magray So? How did it go?
+Mauro Lucchesi as good as alan turing hahah jk
That is literally what I am doing right now! Inspiration!
RIP Alan Turing, Great Man No doubt
It's the one people can't imagine anything off, who do things that no-one can image
I really like that sentence....i always use it
Yupyup
I just have to comment how beautiful 0:41 is
yep
also 1:39
True
4:21 I'll say no more
AMEN to that Sean :-)
incredible movie, script, actors...and the score....bravo!
Listening to this soundtrack while studying for exams will make you feel like a genius first discovering the things you're reading about. Best way to get motivation to study, it hasn't failed me once.
this movie was so underrated. i like this music. its so good!
And he wrote this entire score in less than 3 weeks! Unbelievable.
This song is fantastic ... Very touching *_*
Alexandre Desplat, Hans Zimmer & James Horner - The Greatest 3 :)
AND JAMES HOWARD!!! FROM THG!!!
wonsky12 what about Howard Shore? (LOTR)
ramin djwadi?
You forgot John Williams
Jhonny williams!!!
As soon as I heard this score I got goosebumps. It's a true masterpiece in my ears. Its really up there on my 100 best scores of all time.
if the piano guys made a cover of this that would be amazing!!
check pandatooth's cover....

I actually like in the movie when the song starts, the train whistle... sounds like some1 screaming... creepy... but kinda the cool sinister mysterious creepy...
I feel very comfort ,while I was at any mood just by listening to this and makes me to think something new will arrive in my life
The best part starts from 2:35 to 5:32
Coincidence? I think not...
oh my god that's true!
Isulf
The whole track is the best part
Les films mettent en lumière les héros, les musiques les entretiennent.
Sur le Quote Hall of Fame ASAP.
I believe this was the music Mr. Turing was listening to as he created Christopher.
Sometimes it's the people who are most different, who do the things no-one can imagine.
you just fucked up the real quote. feel like it was intentional. jerk
Gee, thanks for being such a jerk towards someone trying to reference that quote from the movie but didn't look it up exactly. Not everyone is going to be exactly right, so don't kill the mood because of it.
No need to call him a jerk man
even though it wasn't the exact quote it is still a true fact that i will always believe.
Wow composed in less than three weeks
Depth for the soul!!👌🏽
Très bon film !
i first listened to the soundtrack and fell in love and then watched the movie and fell even more in love
this bgm makes my motivation for exam uprise 😂 and I feel some thing like a mathematical god. But the result is always same
EPIC EPIC EPIC....
an amazing film.
Hope.. Struggle.. Inspiration!
I love mathematician Alan Turing because of him the world war short by 2 years.
OMG how relaxing is this song
Pretty relaxing
i wish there was a ten hours song
tous simplement superbe!

Alexandre Desplat for a Mass Effect movie! NOW!!!!
16.58...Magical music
It's "Decorous"
moves me to tears!
Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things no one can imagine.
Beautiful soundtrack!
@BrendanC Berklee Thanks!
absolute genius soundtrack
Goosebumps
lovely! Thank you!
heavenly
5:11 that magical touch.....!!!
This sounds so familiar to me, like something I've heard before but can't place. 😔
Might've been in an ad? It was used in a Colorbond ad in Australia
somehow this score reminds me of MAfia 1, it has a similar feel to it, however an masterpiece
Hats off to Alan Turing, a heroic odd duck
brilliant suite :)
saved so many lives. born to a jerk, ungrateful era
AWESOME!
the machine was 80 feet along the base,why did they showed such a small one in the film!
hearing this makes me love more math.
The best time I have had oh the computer yet!
Alexandre Desplat also made a song for Twilight right?
Laura Sarahs - Music Filter Yes! :)
Does anyone know where to buy the score of this masterpiece?
thanks :D
with my B&W is fantastic
00:40!!! 02:00 beautiful
You should also have included Mission and Alan Turing's Legacy
Somehow reminds me of Koyaanisqatsi (Philip Glass). But this soundtrack is better.
Decorous
great score although I like John Barry's score foe Enigma a bit better
this movie made me want to die
4:22 when it starts
