I just watched that movie.
I was surprised that it began and was interspersed thru out the movie, how the government was on 'his case'.
I was surprised they mentioned at the beginning of the movie that the Germans had already split the atom.
For me: all I could think about was a job interview I went to a long time ago.
It was at a lab where they had 3 large lasers, seperated by 120 degrees and focused on some heavy water suspended in mid-air by a huge magnetic field. When the lasers would fire at the heavy water, it would cause a fission reaction. Oppenheimer was involved with fusion.
I didn't want the job because they were doing these experiments within the city limits.
During the movie, all I could think about is what would the outcome have been if I accepted that job.
