At the beginning of each month, we pre-select a film, so you have ample time to watch it before the meeting. Then we'll gather to critique and discuss the film in-depth.
Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer delves into the life of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist who led the Manhattan Project during World War II. The film portrays his pivotal role in developing the atomic bomb and the ensuing moral and political challenges he faced. Structured around his 1954 security hearing, it contrasts his scientific achievements with the profound consequences of nuclear warfare.
Oppenheimer won seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor.
