Christopher Nolan and Oppenheimer... this is the one flick I'm really looking forward to this summer.

I am rarely interested in today’s movies. But this one looks good. I want to see the advanced science of that era. Oppenheimer was left wing, so let’s see how this movie handles this.
______________

Like many young intellectuals in the 1930s, Oppenheimer supported social reforms that were later alleged to be communist ideas. He donated to many progressive causes that were branded as left-wing during the McCarthy era. The majority of his allegedly radical work consisted of hosting fundraisers for the Republican cause in the Spanish Civil War and other anti-fascist activity. He never openly joined the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), though he did pass money to leftist causes by way of acquaintances who were alleged to be party members.[57]

This is absurd. Why is Oppenheimer not played by Whoopi Goldberg? Where is the fat, ugly, black lesbian representation?

If it’s epic, why did they drop it?

Most of the cast is Uber Liberal. Will pass.

Hi.

I wonder how DoD employees were issued security clearances and who had a need to know?

Did FBI, OSS, or DIA do all the “leg work?”

In ‘74 my BI was a damn colonoscopy.

5.56mm

Hollywood hates conservatives, and I will not support an industry that hates everything I stand for. I have not been to a theater since the last century. I’ll pass.
