In ‘Oppenheimer,’ Christopher Nolan builds a thrilling, serious blockbuster for adults

in five Nolan films, including the Batman trilogy, “Dunkirk” and “Inception,” but this would be his first time as a lead — something he had secretly pined for.

It would be an all-consuming role that would require some physical transformation to approximate that famously thin silhouette. A complex, contradictory figure, Oppenheimer emerged from a somewhat awkward youth to become a renaissance man who seemed to carry equal passion for the Bhagavad Gita, Proust, physics, languages, New Mexico, philosophical questions about disarmament and the perfectly mixed martini. But Murphy knew he was in safe hands with Nolan.

Nolan wrote the main timeline of the film in the first person, to represent Oppenheimer’s subjective experience. The other timeline, filmed in black and white, is more objective and focused on Lewis Strauss , a founding member of the Atomic Energy Commission and a supporter of the development of the more destructive hydrogen bomb.
