Oppenheimer's film evaluation

Oppenheimer's film lasts three hours. The audience sat in front of the shining screen and followed Nolan's dual perspectives of color and black and white, as if they had traveled through time and space, been in that era and passed through an important life moment in Oppenheimer.

Black and white perspective is an important figure, the perspective of Luis Strauss, the leader of the American Atomic Energy Commission. The sharp distinction between color and black and white made the audience understand the entanglement between American scientific and political circles at that time. The film constantly switches between color and black and white perspectives, and two important hearings of Oppenheimer and Strauss are also interspersed.

The hearing against Oppenheimer was planned by Strauss behind the scenes, full of sinister traps, taking advantage of the world situation at that time and McCarthyism's "personal grievances". The hearing against Strauss is a crucial moment to decide whether he can rise to parliament himself. At the two hearings, the witnesses appeared in court in turn. Some people hit people when they are down, some people turn black and white upside down, some people stick to the truth, and the complexity and diversity of human nature are also displayed incisively and vividly.
