The Lone Star Film Festival will present the North Texas premiere of The Imitation Game. As World War II code breaker Alan Turing, Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch gives the performance of a lifetime – a tender, nuanced study of a man racing to save the world, all the while wrestling with his own personal demons.

Directed with intelligence and breakneck speed by Morten Tyldum, and featuring superb supporting turns by Keira Knightley and Matthew Goode, The Imitation Game is poised to be a major contender in this year’s Oscars derby.

Screenwriter Graham Moore will be in attendance.
