I first caught wind of this phenomenal film about a year ago through other movie blogs posting several on set photos. Why The Imitation Game caught my eye is because of the prescience of Benedict Cumberbatch and Keira Knightley. Who are stunning actors that will be playing husband and wife which seems like a pretty amazing combination that is bound to invoke awe in all audiences. Also World War Two dramas that are not centered around the battle field is a very welcomed setting.
So what I can gather from this lengthy teaser trailer is that the major plot will be centered around Alan Turning who the mathematician which Cumberbatch plays. This information isn't new, only a conformation. With the thriller-esque pacing of this trailer I expect it to be modeling after the film itself. Focusing more on the important essence of every single moment as most World War Two and war films really like to exaggerate. Especially with this presure that will surely influence Cumberbatch's character. What I didn't see much reference too that many other followers have been commenting on is an allusion to Turning being gay. Which I don't think will be mentioned flat out, since the focus is much more physiological then sexual. But this is all speculation, so all we can do is wait until the movie comes out later this year.
