Part 7/9:
Oppenheimer: The Cost of Creation
Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" emerged as another source of division, primarily due to its portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the atomic bomb's implications. Critics have examined the narrative lens through which the film presents this historical figure, arguing that it largely ignores the perspectives of those affected by the bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
While Nolan has justified this focus as being central to Oppenheimer's character development, questions about the moral responsibilities of filmmakers in narrating historical events continue to spark debate about the representation of marginalized perspectives within mainstream cinema.
