"I cannot judge you"

Rating: 9/10 (8 March 2015)

This movie is a gem, a masterpiece. It is so rich in narrative, character development and historical detail. This film had me enthralled, and by the end in tears and shaking with anger. I weep too much in movies, it's true, but this one cuts straight to the heart. A modern tragedy.
A few years ago Alan Turing was honoured at Manchester Pride, and it moves me deeply now to think about it. Too late to help him, even if he hadn't committed suicide. Kudos to the British government for trying at least to undo some of the damage and right a terrible wrong. We need more movies like this.
People don't understand. How many millions of human beings have been crushed by ignorance. Such a waste! So much shame, frustration and suffering. Even now many of us still live in dysfunction, especially in the Third World, and don't lead the full lives we were meant to lead.
This movie's message and impact are profound. Thank you Morten Tyldum, Andrew Hodges, Graham Moore and Benedict Cumberbatch.
I suppose I should point out that this is another movie that could be called a gay tragedy. Yes, there are too many of those. However, this a story begging to be told.
I can only leave a short review now, but I'll say more after I've seen the movie again.
