The lazy autosm-washing aside: Turing went to his grave never speaking about his accomplishments - still under the OSA at the time. He was neither involved with the decision to use or not, things that were discovered via cracking enigma. The acts that film lays at hia door in the sake of some lazy drama repreaent a vilification of his character.
