The fact that he could have spent the whole time to talk about himself and HIS experience of making this film but he talked about Alan Turing the whole interview is impressive.
He gave a ten minutes response to one simple question. I am amazed. Not just by his eloquence but also his passion and admiration toward the man he is talking about. He is simply amazing.
+Yohana Vargas That's so true! Very few actors these days give such in depth articulate answers =) that's why he's such a talented actor =D
Yohana Vargas. . overkilling simplicity. ..maybe 😘😘😘
He reallly could go on and ramble about one topic forever, I love it. He seems to have so many complex thoughts in his head about everything and is capable to put them into words, thats so nice
I can't imagine anyone else playing Alan Turing so well. Cumberbatch deserves an Oscar for this role.
Any other year he may have won but Eddie redmayne was PHENOMENAL. No beating that.
In a world where so many people are sloppy dressers and sloppy thinkers, Benedict Cumberbatch stands out as a superior man. Everything about him indicates a brilliance that expresses itself in articulation, precision and harmonic proportion. Bravo!
With a privileged background, a Masters in Drama, and a highly trained Shakespearean actor, yet he can still be goofy and down-to-earth. I've been a fan since his early work.
I am sleepy, exhausted, I have never watched the imitation game (but planning to after this interview), but I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP listening to him.. it is rare to find this level of eloquence AND intelligence in an interview about a movie (most are reduced to the "funny bloopers" and sexist comments about tight suits)
I love how long it takes him to answer a question because I could listen to him talk for hours.
Good thing but you must have been disappointed this was ‘only’ 49mns! 😂
He should have won the Academy Award for his performance. He was brilliant!
I was YELLING at my computer when he said he would love to play Patrick Melrose.
*you did it Benedict!! YOU DID IT!*
"Patrick Melrose"...and you did it, man! Amazing...
I asked the question at the end! Thanks so much for the awesome experience!
I’m absolutely amazed. Finally, a substantial talk that lives up to the intellectually demanding topic of the film. Thank you!
Benedict’s performance in this movie was absolutely amazing.
Ok so im a huge fan of Benedict cumberbatch, hes my favorite actor. Ive seen a lot of movies and the series he played in, and the place I found out about him was at school, actually. We watched the imitation game in the last lesson before Christmas holidays and I fell in love with the movie and the main character, alan turing, immediately. After watching it about three times myself at home I started to wonder why I have never heard of alan turing before. He was such a hardworking man and did so much and if it wasn't for him we would have never ever lived like we do today. We talk about so much crap in school, about the second world war as well (I'm German so the second world war is a huge topic) and we still don't talk about people like him. In my opinion not only Alan Turing deserves more attention but the movie as well. Benedict and all the other actors did so well. But the most important thing is that the movie did what seemed impossible to me: it motivated me to keep going and to learn and be smart because nobody would dare and make fun of me if I'm smart. The imitation game changed me, and I think everyone at school should watch that movie. It helps a lot and Alan turings story is so raw and heartbreaking. I think the director himself said 'the movie is about hope' and hope is exactly what we need.
Blah blah blah
@@KAHHHH8548 phhh nobody forced you to read that shit😂😂
@@jofflock that's so cool!
46:07 Patrick Melrose
And he did this amazing performance...
My God, he's tearing up right at the end when Annette is praising him. 😍
The fact that he talks about Patrick Melrose warms my heart, and that he did end play him, perfectly highlights his passion and determination. I aim to portray even a fraction his humanity in my day to day life, as he is such an inspiration. Thank you for the upload.
I love this film so much, mostly because of Ben’s portrayal of Alan Turing. You can see in interviews like this how passionate he was about this role!
I appreciate this interviewer so much. Ben can be quite long winded, and I like that she doesn't cut him off (even allows him to cut her off if a thought strikes him). And even intentionally set aside time for audience questions. Kudos.
What a joy to watch. Also, Annette Insdorf is an amazing interviewer here and it's so wonderful to watch these two geek out over film.
A treasure of an interview! Such a deep and fascinating exploration of his process!
Patrick Melrose! You did it! Amazingly!
Loved the film so much! You did amazing job Benedict! 😊❤️
Mr BC, it's a delight listening to you...couldn't tear myself away from this interview.
They both have wonderful voices.
I love HIM for HIM. There I said it.
Great interview.. love him. First saw him in a nautical period piece To the Ends of the Earth on PBS in 2005 - his talent & brilliance were obvious - especially in a scene where he had to say his lines while the ship was pitching & tankards of beer were sliding up & down the table! Masterful timing, funny & brilliant.
A true gentleman. 😍
25:30 It must have felt odd to have been giggled at for even sighing at this part. He’s very serious in this interview as the life of his character has touched him.
What a wise man, full of knowledge and awfully charming ❤️
Benedict is awesome... The imitation game and sherlock r my faves... Such great works of art
Benedict was the best actor we have to play this hero of world freedom. Thank you for this insightful interview. Thank you Benedict for such an amazingly profound portrayal.
Such a humble human being in all of his interviews
40 .. Yes. I love how Benedict talks about feminism .. love him.
Wow. He had his Patrick Melrose. Talk about the power of the mind. A great one by the way. Awesome.
My friend in college Jeff Peters was the one who pioneered invention of the talking board like Hawking used... Jeff help build the accessible public building laws in Michigan. He worked with Governor Milliken to improve conditions for all handicappers. Jeff also helped design a silent motorized mobility device that looked like a large Fischer-Price toy which he loved to use when his disease made it hard for him to walk. He had earned a pilot's license and did not let his disease or a deformity from birth stop him from doing anything he wanted to do. We met in poetry classes at MSU.
Well it seems like I came in late on the game but I discovered Benedict Cumberbatch in the audiobook of Sherlock Holmes and I was hooked so I I willbe trying to follow him and catch up o n his portrayals I will catch up and try to watch the imitation game and the other roles that he has played. It is so refreshing to see this rare caliber of a man and realizing his passion and admiration for the people that he's caring for and therefore one of fully realized their Essence. I find this is so exciting and an element of connection with my sensibilities
He's so generous about Eddie Redmayne and them both playing Stephen Hawking. A very gentle, funny, intelligent, articulate guy 🙂
Well spoken BC,a very articulate tribute to one of our unsung heroes, and a great performance in the film, awesome!
Absolutely brilliant.
YEAH HE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE OSCAR MAYBE HE WILL NEXT YEAR ! HE IS GOING TO BE DR STRANGE A MARVEL CHARACTER !
So dream come true? Just read that Benedict is about to play Patrick Melrose :)
I also love that Ben got to play Patrick Melrose as he wanted to.
Definitely recommend watching Imitation Game if you haven’t already! i loved that movie it’s on my all time list! brilliant actor amazing performance I wish him great continued success...thanks for the upload!👏👏👏👏
Anyone else having sound issues? The video is lagging several seconds behind the sound.
Yes.
Oh his voice my goodness
This was a great interview, wish you guys had used a de-essar though.
Great interview...I don't know if it's just me but the audio and video seem to be pretty unsynchronised...please could you fix it?
seems like a great interview-- the audio is way off in timing; the bit i tried to play with it to adjust didn't help... needs to be re-edited.
Such a good interview . I like his shoes :P
Ahhh I want to know about the limp !!!
Great movie. The voiceover in Goodfellas is the best ever, but of course, Scorsese is a film master. PTxS
unbelivebele
I wanna know what his thinking is when he plays characters like these
my crush 😔
He mentions wanting to play Patrick Melrose. And then...
19:52 who, why, what, how, when?
Sherlock??
He isn't on the covers of things because his work was secret. Everytyhing done at Bletchley Park was secret until the 1990s, severing the Brits completely from computer history. Eckert and Mauchly did not know Turing...
HE IS NOT ONÑY A WONDERFUL ACTOR BUT ALSO VERY ELOCUENT KNOWGEABLE!
Who the hell disliked the video? 😓😓😓
Who invented the enigma machine in the first place?
Turing couldn’t actually tell the policeman what he did in the war so why did the film start with him telling the policeman all about it?
I think what drove him to break the code was to break the code of being outside of parental love and acceptance, he was trying to find the way in.
That he continued to give in his work was his way of forgiving the people who had tried to destroy him.
The Enigma was the machine used by Germans during World War 2 to track (using mathematical codes) and destroy allied warships and passenger ships in the Atlantic. A whole lot of people were involved in trying to break the code (as it was mentioned in the film) but yes, the bunch at Bletchley Park, especially Alan Turing, were instrumental in finally cracking it. The film took some artistic licence in having Turing telling the police his story but that is all.

lol patrick melrose

MP John Leech led the campaign to pardon Turing
Now BC just needs to play Tesla.
+fiddlefancier Sometime in 2016 He is playing Edison in The Current Wars , Which is about the rivalry of AC vs DC current between Edison and Westinghouse . I am sure , it will be amazing . I don't know who plays Tesla . Jake Glynhaal plays Westinghouse.
Bowie did Tesla ... it would be cool to see a B.C. version :)
I watched his hour-long interviews and then realised Graham Norton's show was shit (the one Ben went with Johnny Depp)
Alan Turing was to cryptanalysis like William Boeing was to aeronautics. However, the Polish Cipher Bureau (Langer, Ciezki, Rejewski, Zygalski, Rozycki, & Fokczynski) conquered Enigma first, just like the Wright Brothers conquered the air first. Although, the Poles did to/with Enigma, what aeronautical engineers did with aviation until the threshold of the jet age. The Poles would have been further instrumental at Bletchley Park - had they been permitted to be there. But, maybe, the secrets of Britain's treachery against Poland was what was being kept from them.
because I enjoy our privacies
"No! He's still a homophobe!"
Yeah Turing existence is questionable and no one talks about the real man from the future, john von newman the real father of modern computing.
I find Cumerbatch's his passion and detail incongruous with grossly inaccurate story that was told. While it wasn't a documentary, and despite good performances the differences were significant enough to figuratively castrate Turing yet again. Turing didn't single-handedly come up with a machine that could crack Enigma - he did work well with his team. Turing may have been socially awkward but he wasn't a horse's behind that was so inept that he would irritate everyone who he met. These aren't trivialities and fair fame for artistic license. Turing's real story was much more interesting than this fabrication.
