Take A Look At The Trailer
The two-minute trailer, which was released with Avatar: The Way of Water in theatres in the weekend, introduces Oppenheimer as a conflicted man whose flaws are ignored in order to focus on his brilliance. “Is anyone ever going to tell the truth about what’s happening here?” he ruminates, indicating that there might be a lot more going on behind the scenes that rarely meets the eye. “They won’t fear it until they understand it,” he says as the shots of the creation of the bomb being built are shown. “And they won’t understand it until they’ve used it.” The trailer continues with Cilian Murphy’s voiceover as a timer ticks down to build up a crescendo of sorts, with the catastrophic realities become more and more palpable with the countdown for the launch.
The film is based on the biographical novel by Kai Bird and the late Martin J. Sherwin, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 2006. The book is a biography on J. Robert Oppenheimerhich which looks at the conflict and politics surrounding the creation of the nuclear bomb and also takes a deeper look at the physicist who was regarded as a complicated man.
