  • Weinstein paid $7 million for the distribution rights of the film in North America, which is the highest price ever offered by a US production company in the European film market.
  • "Imitation Game" is the first English film directed by Morten Tedum.
  • Because of the depth of the scene, Benedict Cumberbatch could not restrain his trembling and crying during the last few scenes of the film.
  • Cumberbatch and Alan Turing’s family are actually related by blood, but dating back to the 14th century, they are the 17th representative. At the same time, Cumberbatch graduated from the University of Manchester, and Turing happened to be the deputy director of the University of Manchester Computer Laboratory.
  • Cumberbatch talked about Turing's "royal pardon" by the Queen of England in 2013. He believes that the only person who is eligible to pardon anyone is Turing himself, and hopes that this movie will make people aware of his greatness and the horror of the persecution he has suffered. This is a history of shame.
  • Matthew Goody described the content of the film in this way, focusing on Turing’s life and how the British castrated him to praise his great contribution in the war.
  • British Prime Minister Churchill once said that Turing should be most grateful for the victory in World War II.

  • The Turing machine "Christopher" seen in the film is a replica, and the real Turing machine is placed in Bletchley Park. The copy is larger than the original, and is more suitable for showing internal machine parts in the movie.
  • Due to the restrictions of the British road management law, the scene of London being attacked by air in the film must be filmed on Sunday. When the shooting was ready, the talents in the art department remembered that they had forgotten to prepare the rubble props.
