This movie, I think, is more about what happened to Oppenheimer AFTER the Manhattan Project than what the project itself was about.....................

I think it’s all of it.

My suggestion all: Wait for John Nolte’s review or Critical Drinker’s review before saying yay or nay. Those two are reliable.

I am an amateur nuclear historian.
With all the media praising this film, I bet they gloss over the Soviet spy network.
Oppenheimer’s mistress was a spy actively recruiting other women to do the same w other scientists.
This is a fairly recent discovery.

There is also real indications the State Dept was filled w Soviet spies.
Russia appealed to State Dept to get Uranium under Lend-Lease and nearly succeeded.

Much of the spy investigation was swept away to keep nuclear secrets from being revealed during a trial.

I still need to see this movie to evaluate it’s accuracy.
