Invitation from WGAE 11/18 THE IMITATION GAME screening + Q&A

The Weinstein Company and Writers Guild of America, East invite you and a guest to a screening of THE IMITATION GAME Followed by a Q&A with screenwriter Graham Moore Moderated by Scott Silver (8 Mile, The Fighter) RSVP Tuesday, November 18, 8:30pm The Beekman Theatre 1271 2nd Ave, New York, NY 10065 As a courtesy to Mr. Moore, please do not RSVP to this event unless you are available to stay for the Q&A --------------- During the winter of 1952, British authorities entered the home of mathematician, cryptanalyst and war hero Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch) to investigate a reported burglary. They instead ended up arresting Turing himself on charges of 'gross indecency', an accusation that would lead to his devastating conviction for the criminal offense of homosexuality – little did officials know, they were actually incriminating the pioneer of modern-day computing. Famously leading a motley group of scholars, linguists, chess champions and intelligence officers, he was credited with cracking the so-called unbreakable codes of Germany's World War II Enigma machine. An intense and haunting portrayal of a brilliant, complicated man, THE IMITATION GAME follows a genius who under nail-biting pressure helped to shorten the war and, in turn, save thousands of lives. Directed by Morten Tyldum with a screenplay by Graham Moore, the film stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode, Rory Kinnear, Allen Leech, Matthew Beard, Charles Dance and Mark Strong. --------------- Coalition member org members are encouraged to arrive at least 30 minutes early.
