Also the first woman of the movie is introduced in this scene, 3 mins later she is already naked, its so absurd.
Nolan infamously cannot write women, at all. It’s like he descended from a womanless planet. scary stuff
What I don’t see many people talk about is how in my part of the world, and plenty of others, the film was actually censored to remove all of the nudity, so I didn’t actually get too bad of an experience in that regard. But the way it was done was bizarrely technical, to the extent in a film that put so much effort into practical effects, that the heaviest amount of CGI used in the film was applying clothing to nude actors, pretty funny.
The scene where Oppenheimer is being interrogated and she’s on his lap staring right at his wife will haunt me for the rest of my life. I understand the metaphor, but it still sucks.
