    THE IMITATION GAME

    Dear students, following the previous topic that was inventions, technology, etc. There is a
    movie I wanted to see with you but when I wanted to make reservation of the multimedia
    rooms, it was not possible. I know we have already started with another topic on Friday.
    However, we can keep that in stand by for a week and then continue. In this order of
    ideas, I am going to share with you the activities to be carried out until Friday 27 th. You are
    going to complete a couple of exercises in relation to this movie. Here I am sharing a link
    watch it English with subtitles in English 😉

    https://www.cinecalidad.is/pelicula/el-codigo-enigma-online-descarga/

    Part 1 - Watch the film and answer the following questions. (Reflective and well-supported
    answers, please at least 40 words per question)

    A - Turing was forced to conceal his homosexuality because it was illegal. How might
    holding such a big secret have influenced his role in breaking the Enigma code?

    B - Do you find the barbaric treatment inflicted on Turing by the government shocking?
    How does it make you feel that this is a relatively recent event? Can you think of any
    countries around the world where similar practices still exist?

    C - Some people have criticised for the film because in their opinion, the film avoids
    talking about Turing’s sexuality in any detail. Why might they think that? Do you agree?
    D - Turing was granted an historical pardon by the Queen in 2013, long after his death. Do
    you think this was an important thing for the country to do? Why?
    Part 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSDqM4ZqKlQ You are going to watch this video, it
    is an interview of the main actors at the London Film Festival. Again use from 30 to 40 words
    minimum to explain each question.

    - In this short interview they mentioned things like “Turing´s story is an underrated” why do
    you think he says so? Explain

    - They also talked about the role of women in society and how it has changed (taking into
    consideration that this happened NOT many years ago) Explain what you think she referred to

    - And they even talked about the importance for people in general to know this kind of stories.
    Why do you think this emphasis on suggesting stories like this to people?

    Part 3 – Write a film review of the movie. The structure of a film review is the following :
    Introduction (General aspects of the movie, kind of movie, main actors, locations, setting,
    release date, etc) Body (the plot, the story itself, avoid telling how the movie finishes)
    conclusion (opinion in general, en relation to the acting, music, photography, etc and if
    you recommend it or not and why) Word count: 200-250 words
