Too good to be intelligent?
Unfortunately, sexism is not new to Keira Knightley. Also the ZDF felt called to rummage in the "heute-journal" in the chest of dusty gender stereotypes:
Keira Knightley is a lot prettier than most of the girls who were good at math at the time, "said the ZDF editor about her role in the new film" The Imitation Game - ". A top secret life ".
True, whoever was good at math was, of course, unattractive - both then and now. Pretty girls can not count. Insanity-gag! Had Dieter Thomas Heck left?
Sexism and Keira Knightley: The article in the ZDF-Mediathek
Dear ZDF editor, now among us men: Have you ever been disappointed at school? Has even the math-nerd returned her advances? If only you had seen the man behind the good censorship and asked her to be your date for the Prom! Then she would have taken off her glasses immediately, waved her long hair in slow motion and revealed that she is really beautiful, secretly and hiding behind all the math. Now it's too late. But Keira Knightley can not do that.
Your final verdict on the film: "Knightley essentially plays Knightley". Followed by a one and a half minute jubilation about co-star Benedict Cumberbatch, his outstanding acting skills and the complex figure of Alan Turing he plays. Incidentally, this could also be due to the screenplay, which is tailored to the Oscar performance of the male lead actor. Oh no - of course, the script has "considerably helped" Knightley and her role, of course.
