Oppenheimer 2023

★★★★★

Watched 31 Mar 2024

The motion picture feels like unstable wavefields. It's the pressure felt by the sphinx-like Guru of the atom. Trinity echoes non-linear time. Curving back within myself I create again and again. Murphy's performance is eradiated. Espionage and experimental circumstances. Walking through the fire of duality. Edited together with such skill. A film of of condemnation, revelation and the theory of complexities and outcomes. Relevant-as-fuck. Göransson's score is intimate, warmly ambient and apocalyptic. 40 violins trigger a nervous breakdown. Set thy heart upon thy work, but never on it's reward.

When you peel back Murphy's mercurial performance you see the potentiality that the real Oppenheimer was a bit like a Steve Jobs, or vice versa, surrounded by genius, that propelled him so. But within the film he is a wild, vision spinning, central figure of a world that must focus on war, politics, religion and philosophy. Big, big questions on morality and what is worth finding in the quest to push the envelope. Science as a weapon. Nolan's warning.
