Dont wanna be alone.

Saw a great long review.
It is said that Turing's achievements are only the tip of the iceberg introduced in the movie.
It is said that geniuses always bring the most pure and sincere to the world, and what the world returns to them is often a basin of dirty water.

When the geniuses of history are still alive, it is often tragic. It is the people who seem to be incapable of accomplishing what no one else can accomplish.
And geniuses often need help, such as Joan next to Turing. It was she who slowly injected genius into the breath of "people" so that he could get along with people and get help to realize his dream.
However, more geniuses, who have lived a tragic life because of their independence, can only be recalled by the world after their death.

Their exploits are unknown and their achievements are unparalleled.
Is it a bit of a pity that I almost changed the fate of the world, but I can only suppress the passion in my heart and return to the ordinary.
For geniuses, probably not. Their existence has far exceeded the meaning that life itself gives to human beings. They don't need empty compliments, flowers, and applause, maybe as Turing said at the end, he just wants to be with someone, not alone.
