When Christopher Nolan began writing the screenplay for Oppenheimer in the early 2020s, his teenage son questioned whether anyone still cared about nuclear weapons. By the time the film was released in 2023, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Vladimir Putin’s nuclear saber-rattling had thrust atomic anxieties back into public consciousness. The timing was coincidental, but […] Read more ›
