There are very few movies that I think everyone must see. This is one of them. We owe so much to Alan Turing, and his story should be known. Sadly, not many people even recognize his name. And the way his invaluable contributions were forgotten in the face of horrific institutionalized bigotry was despicable. Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
