    Cillian Murphy has certainly come a long way. I remember him in 28 Days Later which is low key great acting by him before he made it big time. I'm glad to hear Nolan doesn't have interest in the Marvel and DC comic movies. We need actors to push out highly quality content like this to keep Cinema relevant. Movies that have the flare for the dramatic that aren't all CGI and have a developed plot. This will definitely deliver on that.

    It's such a shame Oppenheimer felt he had such huge burden to carry. I mean i get it, he is the one who made it happen, but he did it because the alternative was unthinkable, just imagine what the world would look like today IF the Germans had made the bomb in 1943/1944. My blood freezes just thinking about it. Oppenheimer did it for all the right reasons, if he hadn't been the one, someone else would've done it eventually. I just think it's sad he blamed himself, he was just helping his country or maybe even all of humanity for that matter.

      Please. Learn some history. Germany surrendered in May of 1945, three months BEFORE the atomic bombs were dropped on Japan. The USA and the USSR had been uneasy "allies" throughout World War II, and it was obvious that the alliance wouldn't hold beyond the war's conclusion, leaving two politically and economically opposed super-powers in the world. The USA dropped the bombs on Japan, essentially already defeated but for a declaration of surrender, for one reason and one reason only: To send the message to the USSR that we had this weapon and weren't afraid to use it. I admire the scientists who committed themselves to this effort, because the Soviets were not far behind us in the development of the bomb, but if you think the Nazis were the threat that prompted its use, you're missing the entire point.

    While the definition of "biopic" might be "a FILM based on the life of a famous person" the 1980 BBC production of the Oppenheimer TV mini-series is the production I will be comparing Nolan's movie to. The mini-series ran for seven hours and it covered Oppenheimer before and after the Manhattan Project. Sam Waterston played J. Robert Oppenheimer.
    It will especially interesting to see how Kitty Oppenheimer is portrayed. In the BBC mini-series she is portrayed as highly opinionated and very protective of her husband. She was openly critical and vocal of those she perceived as her husbands enemies. Not an especially sympathetic portrayal. Well played by actress Jana Shelden.

    Although I like Nolan's vision, I would like to see how he fares in adapting other people's vision while integrating with his own. Nolan remaking Solaris would be something I would enjoy so much to see, because I think it does cater to his themes (so hes not a complete fish out of water), but it comes from a very different sensibility (so we could see how much he can flex or not trying to imbue a story that is already crystalized with his particular kind of film-making).

      @kdub1242 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I read that an actor named Jack Quaid is playing Feynman. Since the movie is of course called "Oppenheimer", I'm sure it's just not feasible time-wise or narrative-wise to devote much time to any one individual in the project aside from Oppie.
      I'm sure they'll cover Feynman working for Bethe, leading the computation group for the explosive yield of the weapons. And I do hope they have room in the film for a bit of safecracking, and bongo playing, but who knows.
      As for the rest, I think Feynman is interesting enough to devote a whole movie to - above and beyond that little film Infinity, as charming as it was. I'd like to see him on screen shouting down Bethe and Bohr (nothing personal) when he thinks they are wrong about a technical issue. Or reviewing the blueprints for the uranium refinement plant, asking what would happen if "this" valve gets stuck, or show him identifying and pointing out the dangerous problems with critical accumulation at Oak Ridge.
      And we'd all like to see him after the war, developing his spacetime approach to quantum electrodynamics, solving the problem by inventing his diagrams. Then his work on superfluid helium, then later on hadron interactions, his on and off working relationship with Gell-Mann. Then toward the end of his life, the Challenger investigation. And that's just the technical stuff. There's his eccentric friends and other interests, his drawing, and Tuva. There is so much in the public record about him, that almost any decent screenwriter should be able to pen a fascinating screenplay about his life.

    Oppenheimer's quote is taken out of context. The fuller quote is: "Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him, takes on his multi-armed form and says, 'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.' I suppose we all thought that, one way or another.” Oppenheimer is not saying that he is become Death, he's saying that he was convinced to do his duty in the face of inevitable ultimate power of death/fate/time/Vishnu/nuclear power(?).

    It may be the first biopic on the big screen, but certainly not the first time the tale was told. BBC did a marvelous docudrama in 1980 (7 parts, about 6-7 hours). With the exception of Sam Watterson playing Oppie, most of the cast were spot on spitting images of the actual characters. Cillian Murphy fits the image of Oppenheimer to a T, but Matt Damon as Gen. Groves? He would have to gain about 150 lbs. in order to even come close! However I'm really anxious to see this movie and will be taking notes.

    The little known truth about the atomic bomb development in the US and later in the UK was that the scientists didn't actually know what would happen. Some thought the Trinity test would set the atmosphere on fire. In the later tests by the British their bomb resulted in a yield far beyond what was expected. They were literally testing theoretical calculations in real life with a weapon capable of ending life on earth and remember they did it without computers. No wonder Oppenheimer was profoundly affected by what he had done when he saw the final results of his creation.

      Germany had already surrendered by the time the bombs were dropped. Japan is a frickin' ISLAND, and it had no allies left. It wasn't capable of self-sufficiency, and the oil embargo had been so effective that, toward the end of the war, the best use of skilled pilots and their expensive planes was to kamakazi them into ships, because they didn't have the fuel to get home. The USA could have starved the Japanese into submission. But we do like our big, flashy displays. And we needed to send the message to the USSR that we had this weapon and weren't afraid to use it.
