Didn’t they already do a movie “Fat Man and Little Boy” about this, with Paul Newman playing Groves?

Ugh. I wasn’t a big fan of that movie. My wife and I watched it recently.

Of course, I can’t tell if the way the story was told offended me, or just the presence of John Cusak in the movie, whom I have come to avoid.

Yes they did.... Dwight Schultz as Oppenheimer.

Yes, and its was a good movie. This new one is just the usual hollywood rinse and repeat. I suppose they will need to queer it up some.
