    Interesting how he was essentially "cancelled" by 1955 but he's still loved by the public

      @Kuldeep D He lead death to counter death. He made the bomb possible at fast pace to counter any possibility of Nazis making the bomb which if it had happened would have been far more devastating than what it is now.

      @@Johnconno We would have known better of him if the Nazi Germans or the Japanese made the bomb first. He was not a part of Military industrial complex but Military industrial complex makes us all part of its activities either psychologically , physically or Intellectually . MIC is the sabre tooth of all political establishments. We, as people, create political establishments in the name of patriotism. Scoundrels use it as their last resort. In this long chain of citizens, politicians, soldiers and scoundrels the employee--employer demarcation gets erased.

      I do see Nolan as attempting to “sustain” the high of art of cinema (such as Scorsese, Cronenberg, and Lynch) yet, Oppenheimer will have to compete with Tik Tok memory-spans, Netflix streamers, and those who find political gossip stimulating.

    Julius R. Oppenheimer was a poster boy of the nuclear program of the United States jump-started in about 1942. A car with a dead battery can be jump started with the good battery of another car with a jumper cable. The American atom bomb program was jump started in about 1942 when two academic scientists originally from a country somewhat near Denmark showed up at the white House armed with about 50 papers of the Soviet atom bomb. The nuclear scientists knew each other before ww2 more as respectable experts and not as buddies: Few of these nuclear scientists of the USSR and academic nuclear scientists of small countries near Denmark from conventions and college visits between ww1 and ww2. After the start of ww2, they all stopped writing letters to each other. The Soviet atom bomb was designed by a Soviet team led by Egor Kurchatov between 1936 and 1942. During a visit to the White House in about 1942, Julius Robert Oppenheimer said he needed 3 months notice in early 1942 approximately, in order to quit his job and to enlist himself in the re-design and re-manufacture of the Soviet atom bomb designed by the Soviet team of dissident nuclear scientists within the Soviet Union. President Roosevelt asked the two academic scientists in about 1942 why there so many papers on nuclear air blast calculations in the smuggled papers on the Soviet atom bomb. the bundle had about 50 pages approximately. The two academic scientists rightly guessed that these air blast calculations were a delaying tactics by the dissident scientists of the Soviet Union to delay the manufacture of he Soviet atom bomb. which made up to 70 percent of the papers handed over to the white House. President Roosevelt made it very clear that he wants an American with a German last name to be the poster boy of the nuclear program of the US. Kurchatov himself was a dissident scientist. He looked more like a beach boy surfing a surf board as a young man. Egor as a young man also looked like a slim fraternity boy in any college in the US. Average fraternity used to be fat. About a decade or two ago, college fraternities in the US made it a requirement that all new fraternity members be slim or muscular and not fat any more. Later, he also started looking like a mad scientist as he aged. Oppenheimer was hesitant to join the nuclear program, as he someone told him as a child that he had a German last name. * In 1942, two theoretical physics from a country hear Holland or Denmark showed up at the White House with detailed blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb along with air blast calculations. President Roosevelt was suddenly highly interested. Two academic scientists from Holland or some other small country near Holland or Denmark visited the White House along with blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb, and offered to become project managers of the American nuclear program. President Roosevelt told Oppenheimer that he needed an American with a German last name as the project manager. Why, If the President finds out that Hitler may use the atom bomb against the US, then President Roosevelt may be obliged to order the use of atom bombs against Berlin. So President Roosevelt wanted a scientist with a German last name to lead the American nuclear program. Einstein had also talked about the dangers of nuclear energy in public. No politician or lawmaker in the US listened to the nerdy scientist named Einstein who looked like a mad scientist. The President listened to the two visiting academic scientists from Central European country who came to the White House with a bundle of papers and blueprints of the Soviet atom bomb and air blast calculations of the Soviet nuclear weapons program in 1942.
