Brilliant acting on the part of Emily Blunt but also very nearly true to the original declassified transcripts of these conversations. Seven men vs. one woman in a 'man world' at the time, (1950s) and the viewers at first believe the seven will absolutely destroy Kitty. But then, after a very nervous uncertain start, Kitty starts to find her rhythm to absolutely destroy Roger Robb. "You get nothing out of me!." Even the committee's members in the real conversations appear very impressed with Kitty's performance. Especially love Kitty reminding Robb of when she left the US Communist Party, teasing him and the committee thinking she's not sharp and what Kitty believes is a farce of a situation, when in fact they badly underestimated the person before them.

The "I don't like your phrase" is a form of gaslighting technique meant to smear malice on what should be an easy question to answer had you not otherwise been lying through your teeth. In contrast, she is actually afraid that they've been found out and thus she wants the question formed in such a way that puts she and her husband as mere victims of circumstance despite the insurmountable evidence against them.

She should be ridden with guilt... not acting like he is hero that needs saving. the real hero's are the wives in Hiroshima who lost the men they loved. ... who lost their children and couldnt have anymore. the real heros of the story arnt even mentioned. instead this women and her husband are given a grand celebration as if fighting the trial is so wonderful and brave. if his wife was a proper human.

[@DanDorland]

The obvious things she does, like the shift from averted gaze and submissive posture to upright, steely eye contact I saw on the first viewing. Replaying it now, I can pick up the little nuances Emily (and Jennifer Lame's immaculate editing) is communicating. 0:50 lips pulled tight, tiny head shakes: can't believe the sheer amount of BS that's unfolding. 1:25 leaves just enough time between "16...17... 18 years" to let Robb think he can interject, only to be cut off repeatedly. 1:34 "18 years ago" repeated, flicks eyes towards the board, addressing them directly. 2:01 very brief shot, showing the slightest of smirks: he fell for the trap, she's already won, and the rest is a victory lap. 2:04 "I know that, thank you" is just brutal.

Sadly, a lot of people accuse OPPENHEIMER/Nolan of sexism because of the very little actresses in this film, while there could have been more, they somehow overlook this particular scene. Its the definition how you portray a strong woman with a backbone and who looked through this entire betrayal from the beginning.

[@knowledgegathererdraftsave1979]

You make an excellent point. I do think the same thing, there could have been more female actors in Oppenheimer, but Emily Blunt’s acting in this scene is a clear depiction as you say of a strong woman alone in a room full of men, particularly the attorney, Roger Robb played by Jason Clarke who she managed to outwit and turn the table back against him. Florence Pugh was also in this film and although she had very little screen time, her acting, portrayal of Jean Tatlock was every bit as crucial to the film, like how her suicide had an impact on J. Robert Oppenheimer. Both Blunt and Pugh imo were equally brilliant as the two main ladies with their acting and how they made this film along with everyone else who was part of it - director, cast & crew.

Most people i knew said this movie making them fell sleepy, but for me this scene is the most beautiful scene ever.

[@lukedaley17]

Emily Blunt is phenomenal in this scene.

I don’t want to take anything away from Cillian’s due recognition. But Emily Blunt’s acting in this scene is the highest point in the movie.

[@kendd691]

Everyone in this movie was spectacular, but Emily’s performance of kitty is how all characters in a biopic should be portrayed, not being just one thing in the chosen storyline, but a whole, dynamic, complicated person

word on the street is that nolan got inspiration for the "through" vs. "into" mixup from Stepbrothers' pamm vs. pan mix-up

[@TheSerpent21]

I like how she just twars him a new one answering sharply and efficiently and doesnt even lose her composure the whole time.

[@plasmichoneytrip]

Yes to sassy Emily Blunt but to those paying attention, I can’t get over how great Jason Clarke is. So naturally talented!

[@jamesreacts111]
