Problematic choice of themes and script but so well acted!
For a few decades there has been an area of study called "epigenetics". The experiences and environment of one generation alter the way their genes are expressed in the next generation, and in the next after that. This includes some parts of affect, psychology. A woman exposed to trauma can transmit persistent neurochemical differences in her children and grandchildren a sort of generational inheritance of PTSD.Something like this seems to operate in Hollywood. The McCarthy era and red scare of the early cold war has left a PTSD in film-makers so that almost any story about the era evokes a cringe reaction and flashback to memories that aren't even the film-maker's own memories. I can understand how people like Lee Grant and Dalton Trumbo were changed by their own experiences. I guess people who weren't even born like Aaron Sorkin and Christopher Nolan are affected by some transmitted PTSD. This is one of just three serious criticisms of a otherwise very good film. The second problem is the reliance on flashing back and forward in time, an overused conceit. Lastly, the film just runs toooo longgg, a defect which arises because of the first two problems.Other than that, though the casting and performances are exceptional. Cillian Murphy has become one of the most powerful actors of his generation and is superb, Matt Damon up to his usual high standard. There is one performance which knocked me right out - Josh Hartnett as E.O. Lawrence is simply amazing; Hollywood creates archetypes over time, Hartnett has become the reincarnation of Gregory Peck in this film. Casey Affleck gives a very fine turn, too. What strikes me about all four performances is the writing is not gabby, not busy with dialog, these four, under Nolan's direction all give performances in which the silences are the "negative space" of the picture they paint.As to creating a whole person of Oppenheimer and as to accuracy - the script is not above criticism but the performances are so compelling and the chosen theme so far from the man himself taht one must take this fine film for what it is.

Foundations In The Face Of Change
"Oppenheimer" is a movie about structures and logistical spheres. Organization is compelling and restraining but is in orbit around us. Materials are made. Labor is collected to produce and administrators elect departments to oversee use for these trade elements. Similarly, the title of responsibility is given, panels obtain proper living procedures, courts make written codes viable for reason and tradition secures principals. Adulthood is pursued in private pragmatic oversights. "Oppenheimer" is elegance crafted in scenes with actors in archetypal recreations of iconic historical scientific and Senatorial backrooms.In December of 1938 we see in a Berkeley University classroom a newspaper reporting that Hahn and Strassman have split a uranium nucleus describing the processes of nuclear fission. J. Robert Oppenheimer is set planted to the ground while potentialities, that are physical processes, are yet bounding out of his adult world into a contemplation of life altering disorderliness. Christopher Nolan's direction is dramatic posterity on a huge scale. J. Robert Oppenheimer's knowledge of the quantum physical world opens chasms of the unknown. Simultaneous to this, Oppenheimer's portraiture procures lateral attachments. These include the destruction of a city by a single bomb, the ending of WWII and the diplomatic world in the nuclear age.Maturity is a moral choice, and Oppenheimer moderates the combustible excitements so that his elementary spirit is reposed and wise. There is the revelation of what a prophecy such an exercise is. Imagine, Oppenheimer sees little scenarios play out in his mind. Meteorites showering down on a metallic gas earth. This is an abnormality, but think how dislodging Oppenheimer's first meeting with President Harry Truman is-in the Oval Office. The protocols of caution and deliberation have sustained Oppenheimer, to hold fast. J. Robert Oppenheimer does not want to produce a hydrogen bomb (H bomb) as he thinks that now is the time to put world league nuclear legislation into effect, and not challenge the Russians into new science and arms races."Oppenheimer" won an Academy Award for editing, and each scene begins with consequential details and ends in meaning. Cilian Murphy, as J. Robert Oppenheimer, the quantum physics theorist, won the Academy Award for best actor. His posture as a serious minded student, of intense introversion and intercessory sociability, is like a floating sunset glimpsed in a chromatic wash of lake water, among cottage trellises and white beach benches. The new moods are overwhelming, the revelations are enjoyed in private and separate one from company. So too, the first detonation of an atom bomb, though was overseen by Oppenheimer as director of Los Alamos, is a piquant trespass of tremendous forces that produce real change dynamics. This is inferred from Oppenheimer's witnessing the dense miles high fireball of the first explosion in a scene of intense quietness. The components of creation, and the various groups directed for collecting materials, from precedence, here to, sanctify beams on the ground with lofts of horizon climbs.General Leslie Groves(Matt Damon) is proud of Robert Oppenheimer, and Matt Damon is radiant as a gruff, get it done treasure who manages to remain memorable in this film of intense absorbtion and spectacle. Robert Downey Jr. won the Academy Award for best supporting actor, and his portrayal is the epiphany of an American iconic figure remembered in black and white on Senate boards and during hearings who represent America's political blessings, and ironically the oppressiveness of sanctioned power in opposition to liberality."Oppenheimer" is a treasure trove of rich narrative fulfillment. Plot is delivered and moves along at the same time. There is constant logical motivations and identifiable emotions to the conflicts. Hoyte Van Hoyteme won an Academy Award for cinematography. Christopher Nolan won for Best Director.
