Keira to join Cumberbatch in “The Imitation Game”?

That’s the buzz from Variety. This hot Oscar-bait period piece script is about famed code-breaker/computer theorist Alan Turing, and his tragic, closeted life as a gay man at a time when “The love that dare not speak its name” was illegal in the UK.

A genius, perhaps on the level of a Newton or Einstein, and a war hero, he was persecuted and prosecuted and died far before his time.

As I said, “Oscar bait.”
