Oh my gosh! How did I miss that!? Thanks for pointing him out

[@kenwood6802]

In 1939, Einstein wrote the famous letter to Roosevelt admonishing him on the importance of nuclear research. It is said that the letter sparked him into action.

[@Eldooodarino]

That letter was written by Szilard and Teller. Einstein signed it though.

[@eds3969]

Einstein was around and helped convince Roosevelt this had to be done.

[@puppetmaster8551]

he and Oppenheimer were friends as well

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Fun fact that kinda blows my mind: my great grandma was the nanny for Leslie Groves when he was a kid. His parents introduced my great grandparents. His mom made the wedding dress that my great grandma and later my grandma wore at their weddings. And apparently one time my great grandma made a fancy cake for an event and Leslie grabbed and ate a handful of it 😂🤣

[@Feargal011]

Leslie Groves was a rather big man, unlike Mat Damon's depiction. Big appetites, big voice, big persona.

[@YoureMrLebowski]

wow, what an fun story to have.

[@nicolaslabra2225]

speaks volume on the reverence Zimmer has in the public eye when people asume its him haha, but its actually Ludwig Goransson who is in my opinion the most exciting composer currently working in hollywood, he is Nolan`s new composer since Tenet, Zimmer seems to be busy with Villeneuve scoring the Dune saga.

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Oh okay! Very cool! Thanks for letting me know!

[@robertjulianoph.d.1423]

The style of the music for both trailers is quite similar to that of Hans Zimmer. Note that this may not be the music used in the actual movie. Thus, we don't know who the composer is.

[@beden653]

@@skintegralston5656 Zimer is a big fan of the Dune universe, so he works on Denis Villeneuve films

[@robertjulianoph.d.1423]

Florence Pugh plays psychiatrist and physician Jean Tatlock who had a romantic relationship with Oppenheimer beginning in 1936 when he was a Professor at the University of California, Berkeley.

[@puppetmaster8551]

Really sad how things played out for her.

[@flixandclips]

Ludwig Göransson! The new Hans Zimmer! I love them both.

[@YoureMrLebowski]

1:47 nice popup 👍🏼

[@bigbadjohn7053]

Florence Pugh is playing Jean Tatlock who was a lover of Oppenheimer. She refused to marry him and he ended up marrying Katherine Oppenheimer (though he may have continued the relationship after he was married...I believe that is debated). She's definitely worth researching as her personal story is pretty interesting.

Be not just entertained but also be educated. Our grasp on history in this country is so lacking.

"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds" - and the World was never the same afterwards.

[@puppetmaster8551]

The glitching noise is a Geiger counter which detects radiation levels. That was Einstein as well, he was involved in some of this kind of stuff and was friends with Oppenheimer and others who were involved in the project

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Right, that’s what I thought. I just didn’t remember the name

[@scottsmith6631]

Einstein wrote a letter urging the Allies they develop a program to build a nuclear bomb before the Nazi's did. Coming over from Germany earlier in his life, he knew the scientists they had and what Hitler was capable of pursuing.

[@knight3131]

Base on what I have seen this movie should win for best picture and should also be in the lead to win for best director and best actor. I don't know if it was Oppenheimer or another physicist who was trying to get the attention of the US government about the Nazis building a nuclear bomb, since he was not getting any attention he went to Einstein who wrote a letter to the President and that is how the Manhattan Project came about. Oppenheimer has a very sad story similar to Alan Turing. After the war because he saw the destruction of the bomb he didn't want to be remembered for it. He also refused to help in the making the Hydrogen bomb so because he knew some communists including his mistress played by Florecne Pugh in the movie, he was label a communists and lost his privileges and became hard to work in science field.

[@roberto5247]

Hi. Thanks for sharing your review. Tom Conti is Albert Einstein. He knew Oppenheimer pretty well. Matt Damon is General Leslie Groves. He designed and built the Pentagon, and was put in charge of the Manhattan Project. His emotional moment in the trailer reflects the $2 billion burden he had to carry on his shoulders on overseeing the entire project. Oppenheimer was recruited by Groves, knowing he had the best physicist to handle the job and to bring in the best and brightest to realize the development of the "gadget," as it was known. The person who spoke with the German accent was Edward Teller, who worked closely with Oppenheimer in developing the atomic bomb, and would later be the "father" of the hydrogen bomb. The "near zero" chances of destroying the world was something all the scientists had in mind. Enrico Fermi was taking bets on the Trinity site about the chances of the entire atmosphere catching fire upon detonating the "gadget." Cillian Murphy's name is pronounced "Kill-ee-an." There is no K in the Celtic language, so every word or name with a C in it is pronounced as if it were a K. (As for the Boston Celtics pronounced with the C as an S is beyond me. One would think the huge Irish-American community in Boston would have raised a stink about it by now.) "Oppenheimer" is definitely on my "must-see" list. Thank you for letting me comment on your video. Nice job, by the way.

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Thanks for the info about Cillian’s pronunciation! I’ve been pronouncing it wrong for a long time

[@roberto5247]

@@thestarsthemselves. It's an easy mistake. As I said, it doesn't help that the Boston Celtics is pronounced "Sell-tics." I have Irish heritage and I tend to be picky about such things. 🙂

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Wow, so my mom just informed me that my great grandma was Leslie Groves’ nanny when he was a kid. And his parents introduced my great grandparents. And his mom made the wedding dress that my great grandma and later my grandma wore. Kind of an amazing connection

[@roberto5247]

@@thestarsthemselves. Wow, that is an amazing connection! Thank you for sharing that information too. Looks like you will have an "edge" over everyone else when you see this movie.

Surprising how you completely ignored RDJ🤦🏻

I don’t know how I missed him, I didn’t notice it was him at all! Probably the black and white and the costume threw me off? I don’t know. But thankfully people pointed him out to me

[@jainamdaftary2060]

You missed Robert Downey Jr at the end

[@Judymoe]

Inception is my fave Nolan film.😊

[@thestarsthemselves.]

It’s so good!

[@Oldman78]

It's history come to life.

[@arkgent8390]

I was hoping to hear Oppenheimer say his infamous quote when he witnessed the detonation of the bomb. It was a piece of Hindu scripture: " Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds". Maybe we'll get that in the movie.

[@thestarsthemselves.]

That would be very cool to hear in the movie, I wouldn’t put it past Nolan to include it

[@arkgent8390]

@@thestarsthemselves. I think that would be a perfect way to end the movie.

[@ponczi]

Very nice reaction from You. Oppenheimer is the movie I'm most looking forward to this year. Especially to see it in IMAX. As for the music in the film, the author of the soundtrack is probably Ludwig Gorranson. Author of the soundtrack to The Mandalorian and Tenet, and The Black Panther.

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Very exciting, the music was really good in those!

[@HowardTheDucksWong]

The IMAX experience for this movie is gonna be insane!

[@williambranch4283]

Szilard/Teller/Wigner in 1939 prepared a letter for FDR regarding nuclear weapons, and got Einstein to sign it to give it more weight. This led ultimately to the Manhattan Project in 1942. Otherwise Einstein had no further involvement. The prequel is Einstein in 1905 and 1911 regarding E=MC^2 .. Szilard in 1933 regarding potential nuclear chain reactions with neutrons and the splitting of uranium in 1939 in Germany.

[@brandonflorida1092]

The way the project got started was that a group of scientists approached Albert Einstein and asked him to write a letter to the president telling him that such a bomb was possible.

[@nerak7896]

Where is Interstellar on your tier list of Nolan movies?)

[@thestarsthemselves.]

It’s up there, I’ve seen it quite a few times, I’d say it’s #2 or #3 probably

[@nerak7896]

@@thestarsthemselves. it is fair :)

[@Eldooodarino]

Jeez. You could have checked on Einstein. His role was, crucial perhaps, but scientifically minimal. He contributed nothing. It was perhaps crucial, as I said, because he signed the letter that Szilard and Teller wrote and sent it to Roosevelt. Einstein died in 1955 long after the war was over. He never came to Los Alamos but I think the scene that showed him was probably in New Jersey (like near the Institute for Advanced Study) which Oppenheimer ran from 1947-1966. You can tell by the trees that the Einstein scene was not Los Alamos. They look like east coast hardwoods, not the Pinons, Ponderosa, Poplars, Juniper, Aspen, and Cottonwood trees of Los Alamos. (indeed "Los Alamos" is usually interpreted as "The Poplars".)

[@Roadghost1969]

A movie to before hand is 1989's Fat Man and Little Boy (it will have no special effects) the Late Paul Newman plays Leslie Groves as does Matt Damon in this one.

[@IcemenMike45]

1:40 it's actually Ludwig Gorannson doing the score for Oppenheimer. He also did the score for Tenet. I think Zimmer was doing Dune pt 2 during this time

[@robertdunford8610]

True story while they were making the Atomic bomb on the site there were 4 deaths on the site one person drown in a pond the another died from suicide and the last two from radiation poison from a accident there!

[@AndreJHoward]

Love your videos! My favorite Nolan movie is Tenet (I did get to see it properly on IMAX though .. so that helped.

[@dcoughla681]

Einstein is played by Tom Conti, a Tony award winning Scottish theatre actor, director and novelist. He’s almost unrecognisable here.

[@1wwtom]

I would recommand seeing "Fat Man & Littls Boy" 1989 starring Paul Newman, Dwight Schultz and John Cusack. Though it has some of it's own diversions I think it's more accurate as to the story,

[@thestarsthemselves.]

Dwight Shultz, from the A-Team?

I wouldn’t say I like World War II, I just have respect and compassion for the people who were involved in it. And of course Hitler needed to be stopped. I think it was necessary, but not something I’d say that I “like“ in terms of the violence and trauma everyone involved must’ve gone through.
