A good movie

Park Bench with Roses


Have you seen the movie 'The Imitation Game' (2014 Biography/Drama). It stars Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing. 'During World War II, mathematician Alan Turing tries to crack the enigma code with help from fellow mathematicians.' Turing was a genius, called the father of the modern computer. He was also homosexual at a time when they would be put in jail or given chemicals in Great Britain. I really enjoyed this movie but I woke up the next morning thinking how much Turing did for the world only
to suffer so much afterward for being homosexual.

I haven't seen the movie, just heard about it. It was hard how he was treated, that's for sure. Love the photo. Hugs, Valerie

I've seen this movie and felt the same way. It disturbed me how much he suffered.

It's too bad we can't just appreciate people for their capabilities instead of poking at them for their differences.
Your picture is just beautiful. So serene.
