Enigma

I can’t place why in particular I liked this 2001 film. I guess, it has something to do with the awe of how far ahead in time Enigma machine was (at the time), and how the British mathematicians (hackers) at Bletchley Park, under grave circumstances and with almost no chance of winning, cracked its code.

Just for that alone, it’s worth watching. We enjoyed it.
