Isn't there also a title card informing us that he was pardoned by the Queen eventually? How very nice of her. 

[ddddeeee]

Imitation Game got away with a lot because Theory of Everything was somehow even more 'Sunday night ITV drama/Oscar forerunner'.

[CoolioD1]

i can't believe that the production designer of the imitation game is working on this got us to talk about the imitation game for a page and a half. the longest conversation anyone has had about that movie in three years.

All this talk about The Imitation Game got me thinking about the hysterical ending they had originally planned before they cut it out.

 

Quote

you see Alan Turing’s body, blurry in the foreground, as he lies dead on the bed, and there’s an apple with a bite taken out of it on the nightstand. As a writer, I was obsessed with the idea that this should be the last scene, but when we first saw it in the assembly cut, it fell really flat. ... We’d had this idea that we would end on the shot of the apple with the bite taken out of it, but when we saw it that way, we all laughed. The movie suddenly looked like an Apple commercial! It was instantly goofy, so we cut it.

Pretty sure we can all agree it's easily the worst among this decade's Adapted Screenplay winners so far.

Whiplash lost to this. Truly the darkest timeline.

The ending of American Sniper might be the only time I’ve heard someone yell “What the fuck” in the cinema.

no follow up credits for the guy who wrote the imitation game yet. AKIVA GOLDSMAN is still dining on that screenwriting oscar from near twenty years ago but this other guy can't get arrested.

Goldsman at least penned the script, produced AND directed Winter's Tale, which gave us this amazing scene with Will Smith and Russell Crowe.

I imagine Goldsman has to pull out the Oscar just to get into meetings with the major studios.

feel like this could be bad... no one cares about Black Widow

This movie is a crime against literature.
