Accurate sources are definitely hard to come by when the country has had a specific trajectory towards Communist sympathies. The ever constant corrosion has culminated into a Democrat Party that is entirely ready to do away with the constitution, while roughly half of the Republican Party is divided between Globalist sympathizers that lean more socialist than is healthy. The film is subtle Globalistic Propaganda wrapped in the glam of Hollywood.
The narrative at every turn slyly posits that Left-wing and Communist sympathies are, yes, not compatible with American values, or security.. but not necessarily wrong. In fact, the impression from any such character with communist proclivities is well meaning and kind hearted. It’s as if, such ideology, when harnessed by Democratic Socialism, would be the moral high ground; and that was effectively the secondary plot point of the entire film.
Perhaps Nolan was simply trying to capture the viewpoint of Oppenheimer himself, as he would have a strong left-wing worldview consistent with most secular Jews. Regardless, the movie comes off as an apologist argument that, since we now live in a world with atomic bombs, the U.S.S.R. is needed as a counter balance to keep America from using them again.
It’s a miracle that we didn’t go into thermal nuclear war with Russia, especially since they were trying there best to get nukes positioned in striking distance from Cuba. Of course, Wikipedia attempts to claim the Cuban-missile crises was a counter measure because of our placement of warheads in Turkey and Italy. Perhaps Wikipedia was used as the “historical accuracy” for the basis of the film 🤔
This movie is a long, fantastic ride, so make sure to bring some snacks and have a good sound system so you can feel the explosions.
]]>Or is the “glory of the west†a myth? Why are you so afraid of a woman who speaks out to a group of men? Had it been a man would you be less offended?
]]>Five seconds of boobs and some light thrusting is ‘outright porn’ now? Some people on here are more sensitive than the wokies
]]>Sorry. I calls’em like I sees ’em. 😉
The worse part about the nudity is that it’s utterly gratuitous.
]]>Having said that, you’re breaking my heart on this one. Nolan is my favorite modern Filmmaker and you have certainly held no punches, which again I appreciate. In addition to your comments, I am very disappointed in his depiction of explicit sexuality. Not that other cinematic masterpieces have been devoid of these elements, but Nolan has achieved what few other filmmakers have, namely exceptional filmmaking, stellar narrative, original material, and the lion’s share of the box office sales, repeatedly, and all with generally family friendly content. The addition of sexual content in this movie seems to cheapen his legacy, for me anyway. Regardless, I’m planning to watch this anyway.
