Robert Sean Leonard as “Christopher Morcom” in Breaking the Code (1987)
out of character post:
considering we are delving towards more face-to-face interactions with Mousetrap, I believe it is time I offer a face for the name. while they have not shared this image themself, I figure this is the best course for the sake of visualizing scenes
so, here we are;
a face to the name
The man who has broken the code. Alan Turing is one of Derek’s most memorable portrayal. Emotionally intense. Turing should have been a hero of his time. He was finally a victim of Intolerance. He has contributed to save mankind. And mankind has betrayed him. What Derek did here is more than an artistic performance. It is also a personal tribute to a great man. He has highly contributed by his talent to put Turing’s work and life into light and given him the recognition that he deserved (photo : Martha Swope)

As far as portrayals of Alan Turing go, we have what I like to think of as the "Big Three" - Benedict Cumberbatch, Derek Jacobi, & Ed Stoppard. There are certainly issues with all 3 of them - limitations of the medium, script/writing issues, accuracy, etc. But I do have to say that Ed Stoppard's performance is the only one that doesn't feel like a gross charicature. Like, don't get me wrong, it's a documentary where we see relatively very little of Alan and his full life. However, it feels like a certain amount of care is brought to Alan that we don't see in the other performances.
I think a big part of this is also the writing. The dialogue that Alan has feels so much more like how he know he would actually talk. It's very funny and he is so much more open about his sexuality. The only issue that I really have, and this is in no way Ed Stoppard's fault, is that he doesn't change his voice. There is no halting speech and it's not high-pitched. Which, I understand why that would be difficult to do. Cumberbatch and Jacobi try their best but miss the mark, so I can understand how it would be better to just not try at all. But just, in general, the entire performance feels a lot more natural and playful in a way that the others don't.
I will probably write more about this topic later (I really want to make a TikTok/video series about it) but I have been thinking about this more and more. And I wanted to get this out of my head.

Wait. Wait wait wait. Did Cody get his name...because he wrote the codes?
