“Genius is no guarantee of wisdom,” says government official Lewis Strauss (Robert Downey Jr.) in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. It could be the blockbuster’s banner statement. Since the release of Nolan’s thrilling, bombastic film, the culture has been caught in the firestorm about how to explain the personality of the eloquent, esoteric J. Robert Oppenheimer and his creation of the first and only people-destroying atomic weapon to be used against civilians. Where Hollywood traffics in Oppenheimer’s ambiguity as a historical character, two small but potent nonfiction forebears ask a more pointed question: what is the responsibility of scientists to their societies?

The Day After Trinity (1981) and The Strangest Dream (2008) evacuate the mythical tropes of the tortured genius biopic that Hollywood loves to rehearse in films like The Imitation Game, Hawking, and A Beautiful Mind. Now enjoying a renaissance, the films are neither unforgiving nor hardline, but offer sharper moral clarity to the Oppenheimer dilemma, presenting a more complex (and condemning) portrait of the father of the atomic bomb: a patriot, philosopher-king, skilled public administrator, scientific collaborator with military and government, emotional naif, egotist, and polyglot.

Nolan’s story arcs towards Oppenheimer losing his naivete upon realizing that he has given humanity the power to destroy itself. Designed to wrap around each filmgoer’s own worldview and politics, the film is as politically open-ended as you might expect from a major blockbuster. In his press tour, Nolan articulated a more explicitly conservative stance that chimes both with the Great Man theory of history (another biopic favorite) and the Cold War military doctrine that justified the development and use of atomic arsenals against civilians.

“Is there a parallel universe in which it wasn’t him, but it was somebody else and that would’ve happened?” Nolan said in the New York Times. “Quite possibly. That’s the argument for diminishing his importance in history. But that’s an assumption that history is made simply by movements of society and not by individuals. It’s a very philosophical debate…. he’s still the most important man because the bomb would’ve stopped war forever. We haven’t had a world war since 1945 based on the threat of mutual assured destruction.”

That’s also the idea behind the official policy of the nuclear superpowers: deterrence. Horror, in other words, was necessary to prevent even greater horror. The very same doublethink led to Harry Truman’s honorary degree, conferred for ending the war.

How reluctant was Oppie? In Jon Else’s The Day After Trinity, a documentary originally made for public television in 1980, Oppenheimer’s collaborators deliver ambivalent, guilty testimony to a static, non-judgmental camera. Screening on the Criterion Channel, Else’s doc points to the great pleasure its subject took in being appointed the leader of the grandiose bomb project, with the cosmic job title of “Coordinator of Rapid Rupture.” The lens pans patiently across grainy, grayscale photographs that have the natural air of science fiction; the film feels more of a piece with Chris Marker’s La Jetee (1962) than a typical historical documentary. After all, Oppenheimer was not just the enabler of the weapons that could annihilate us all, but of the high-stakes hallmarks of modern spectacle itself. The awe-inspiring images of mushroom clouds over Trinity, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki are now instantly recognizable in the core visual grammar of contemporary entertainment and media. It’s hard to imagine an idea better suited to Nolan’s exalted, maximalist esthetic and his stories of obsessive male protagonists pressurized within towering patriarchal systems of power.

Oppenheimer positions the atomic bomb as the creation of a brilliant, creative personality. But The Day After Trinity revels in the administrative scale of the Los Alamos project necessary to make a mechanism to trigger, in a millionth of a second, a violent chain reaction with a flare brighter than a hundred suns. A walled city of six thousand staff, at a cost of $56 million. Seven scientific divisions: theoretical physics, experimental physics, ordinance, explosives, bomb physics, chemistry, and metallurgy. All of America’s industrial might and scientific innovation connected in this secret lab with its billions of dollars of military investment.

“Somehow Oppenheimer put this thing together. He was the conductor of this orchestra. Somehow he created this fantastic esprit. It was just the most marvelous time of their lives,” says Freeman Dyson, a rather eccentric theoretical physicist who became Oppie’s colleague at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. “That was the time when the big change in his life occurred. It must have been during that time that the dream somehow got hold of him, of really producing a nuclear weapon.”

In this vision of the A-bomb narrative, Dyson posits that Oppie’s aims switched from finding out “the deep secrets of nature” to producing “a mechanism that works. It was a different problem, and he completely changed to fit the new role.” We begin to see more clearly a portrait of an outsider with a wild desire to be at the center. All the work the whiz kids were doing over the years was always designed to contribute to the war. (All the films remove Oppie’s more demonstrably radical tendencies, his belief in a world government, for instance, which he mentioned offhandedly in the New York Review of Books in 1966.)

The closest we get to Oppenheimer himself is his pale-eyed, doppelganger brother, Frank, who gives the impression of a visionary living in a purely abstract realm. He stammers a little when he speaks of the moment when he and Oppie heard on the radio of their great bomb in action. “Thank God it wasn’t a dud… thank God it worked… Up to then, I don’t think we’d really, I’d really, thought about all those flattened people.” He still seems stunned. If nothing else, Frank gives weight to the storytelling trope of scientists as hyperintelligent but flakey space cadets at a remove from the humanity of it all. “Treating humans as matter,” as Los Alamos collaborator Hans Bethe puts it appallingly. Another contributing scientist says he vomited and lay down in depression. “I remember being just ill,” he says. “Just sick.”

The doc swirls with clips accumulated from Los Alamos Scientific Laboratories, National Atomic Museum, American Institute of Physics, and Fox and NBC newsreels, while Paul Free’s authoritative narration hovers like an omniscient voice from the depths of the Cold War itself. Then, there is Oppie: a figure of stricken elegance in his rakish pork pie hat. Typical of documentaries constructed in a postmodern style, what it all means is never explicated. Ambiguity presides over clarity.

Most directive is Dyson’s testimony. “He made this alliance with the United States Army and the person of General Groves who gave him undreamed-of resources, huge armies of people, and as much money as he could possibly spend in order to do physics on the grand scale,” Dyson says with his flashlight perceptiveness. “We are still living with it. Once you sell your soul to the devil, there’s no going back on it.” Los Alamos, in this counternarrative, was not just an ivory tower but an irresistible paradise for genius-level scientists simply interested in new discoveries and mega-gadgets.

Dyson is a dubious fellow to emerge as the truthteller, given the inconsistency of his own legacy. His unorthodox theories are worthy of their own Nolan-esque treatment. He advocated growing genetically modified trees on comets, so that they might land on other planets and create human-supporting atmospheres, and eventually became a climate change denier based on his distrust of mathematical models. But his intelligence is irrefutable, and his distance from the Manhattan Project gives him a guiltless perspective and authority absent in Oppie’s other colleagues. Dyson, a greater antagonist than can be found in any mere Marvel movie, diagnoses Oppie as the self-induced victim of a “Faustian bargain.”

“Why did the bomb get dropped?” Dyson asks, his tie a little too big, his combover a little too combed over. “It was almost inevitable. Simply because all the bureaucratic apparatus existed at that time to do it. The Air Force was ready and waiting… The whole machinery was ready.”

Dyson also refutes the refrain of Oppenheimer’s responsibility for the catastrophe. “It was no one’s fault that the bomb was dropped. As usual, the reason it was dropped was that nobody had the courage or the foresight to say no.” Dyson pauses to let this sink in, then looks down and wobbles his head tragically. “Certainly not Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer gave his consent in a certain sense. He was on a committee that advised the Secretary of War, and that committee did not take any kind of a stand against dropping the bomb.” This measured oral history is fatal to the view of Oppie as a gentle humanist.

Dorothy McKibben, who ran the Manhattan Project’s office, chimes in with crystal clarity: “I don’t think they would have developed that [bomb] to show at a garden party. I think they were going to do it.” In archival footage, General Leslie Groves plays the role of plainspoken pragmatist: “It would have come out, sooner or later, at a Congressional hearing, if nowhere else, just when we could’ve dropped the bomb if we didn’t use it. And then knowing American politics, you know as well as I do, if there had been an election fought on the basis of every mother whose son was killed after such-and-such a date, the blood is on the hands of the President.”

Through these testimonies, the convention of the conflicted scientist and the myth of an A-bomb created in self-defense give way to a mantra of winning the war, and winning quickly. Valuing American lives over other lives. Avoiding a bloody invasion of the Japanese mainland. Months before Hiroshima, orders had been given to leave several Japanese cities untouched, to provide virgin targets where the impact of the new bomb could be clearly seen. Afterwards, a scientific team from the US was sent to Japan to study the effects. Footage rolls, in The Day After Trinity, of news clips of hospitalized burn victims.

In films on the Manhattan Project, questions of conscience are commonly seen through the assenting viewpoint—that of the scientists who continued to work on the bomb, even after Hitler’s defeat. One essential perspective is obscured, black-holed in subterfuge, even. Physicist and European refugee Joseph Rotblat made crucial discoveries in the fission process, and went on to specialize in nuclear fallout. He moved to Los Alamos in 1944 but defected from the project on grounds of conscience upon learning that the Nazis could not build such a bomb. He was the only scientist to turn his back.

“If my work is going to be applied, I would like myself to decide how it is applied,” Rotblat says in the 2008 Canadian documentary The Strangest Dream. Streaming on the National Film Board of Canada’s platform, the film traces his renunciation of A-bomb development and his role in the Pugwash Conferences, where scientists and statesmen gathered to discuss the reversal of nuclear proliferation. The film renders a fairly straight treatment of its quiet subject, with the visually rich backing of a vertiginous collage of disparate forms, including spooky Cold-War era footage and clips of the Trinity mushroom cloud. Oppie is not in the film, but the narrative takes place in the fissures he helped wrench open; he lurks like an ever-present ghost behind the character of Rotblat, who stands as his angelic nemesis as he tries to transform physics into a humanitarian project. Like Oppenheimer, Rotblat was also accused of espionage, but he was eventually awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for his contributions to the disarmament campaign.

Notably, Rotblat is entirely absent from Oppenheimer, despite being described as a brilliantly offbeat individual—a “mad Polish scientist”—by a former student in The Strangest Dream. It’s a curious historical erasure and a missed chance for a dramatic clash. Then again, perhaps Rotblat is too steady and untragic, incorruptible and unmemeable for his own big moment, let alone the blockbuster treatment. Oppie’s genius wasn’t just in his Faustian bargain but in the way that he spoke and the way he held himself, quoting Hindu philosophy and smoking till the end of time. I suppose film culture is more interested in the flawed, tortured luminary than the staunch, principled dissenter or the morally engaged scientist.

Prosecuting the melancholic drama of the ingenuous mastermind requires substantial historical selectivity. Most cinema narratives hew to the oft-cited rationale for the A-bomb’s development: its function as a deterrent to a Nazi explosive. But in his essay “Leaving the Bomb Project,” Rotblat wrote, “Groves said that, of course, the real purpose in making the bomb was to subdue the Soviets… Until then I had thought that our work was to prevent a Nazi victory, and now I was told that the weapon we were preparing was intended for use against the people who were making extreme sacrifices for that very aim.” With more than a dash of elegiac melancholy, the working thesis of The Strangest Dream is that Rotblat’s moral strength insulated him against Oppie-style tragedy.

Insofar as the The Strangest Dream and The Day After Trinity position the Manhattan Project as an unholy alliance of physics and the openly violent arm of the state, they do so via the absent presence of Oppenheimer, who, flush with government cash, personifies the uneasy collision of science and military. Today’s ventures in AI offer the same science-ethics conundrum, and we don’t seem to be any closer to resolving it than at the moment of Oppenheimer’s mythic quandary. Looking at the images of the Los Alamos exertions, you can almost faintly hear the words of today’s STEM bros: disruption, innovation, brilliance. Wondrous and diabolical, the A-bomb is presented in these documentaries as the freakish outcome of public-bureaucratic entrepreneurialism. (They are weaker on the tangled history of superpower competition and atomic technology.) It all depends, of course, on what humans do with the technology we develop.

Given what we know about capitalist society at present, things aren’t exactly looking up. Just a decade after The Day After Trinity, the Cold War victory lap was being run at the box office. A new, end-of-history generation of studio filmmakers was writing a euphoric, Fukuyama-esque version of reality into pop-culture lore: in blockbusters like Independence Day (1996), The Core (2003), and Armageddon (1998), American pluck saves humanity from wholesale destruction; anxiety surrounding US dominance over the international order is undetectable, and the US military is either prominent or necessary. Before them all, The Day After Trinity suggested that technology’s triumph is the very crux of the problem.

Today, Oppenheimer reifies a political crisis—superpower competition for atomic arsenal—as a conundrum of personality, tech, and naive genius, even as it centers the wild fraternity of science, military, and government vital to create the A-bomb. But the political arrangement of power and resources seems like more of an objective, inevitable fact about the world in The Day After Trinity and The Strangest Dream. If there’s such a thing as sober, mournful spectacle, these films manifest it.

Oppenheimer is long gone, but his legacy—the capacity of a self-destroying humanity, and the late-capitalist spectacle of that mushroom cloud’s bright flash of light—lingers. He did not sign the Einstein-Russell Manifesto against nuclear war. He never apologized for his role in bringing the bomb to life. Atomic technology is now standard. The world’s nuclear powers currently possess an estimated 12,512 active warheads. More than enough to wipe out the planet.'

MASTERLIST!!!!!!!

Hello everyone and welcome to my Masterlist! Below you will find a bunch of films and characters I am writing about. I know there are a lot but a lot of them I am planning but I haven't started writing, a few of them are already completed and the rest, I am currently working on. If I do not update very often, it is probably either because I have writers block (which is not very often), or I am very busy with school work. You will find that some stories I am currently updating often in my Quotev profile: FairyofHogwarts, but they do not appear here until I am done with the book, with a “part” or with a “season”. The reason I only post them here once they are done is because 99.9% of the comments I get on Quotev is “When will you update?” “UPDATE!” even when I updated literally just hours ago -_-. Not only that, it is a lot of hassle and copying and pasting to do from Quotev to here as well as to my Wattpad profile Jadecross4ever. That is why I wait until I am done with a big hunk before I move it here:) If you want to read my stories that I am currently updating every so often, check out my Quotev account.

Bear with me! I hope you enjoy the stories that I have posted so far and I will let you know which stories I am almost done with:)

Here is a list of all my stories up till now.

JAMESTOWN

James Read

In My Arms (ongoing)

Summary – What if Corinna never died on her journey to Jamestown to wed James Read the blacksmith? What if she survived and when James Read stood at the warf, awaiting the arrival of his soon to be bride, he met shy, past abused, but loving Corinna Grant. No one thought that someone could work their way into James’s hard as iron heart but Corinna was different and there may be hope for the stone faced blacksmith of Jamestown and the shy but caring little “maid to make wife”.

Warnings – Unsure as of yet but most definitely: fluff, angst, mentions of abuse, death, mentions of blood and injury, smut.

(Just a note, if ya’ll don't know anything about the tv show or James Read, definitely look into it! It is a fun, intriguing frontier, colonial story and it worked its way into my heart even though it was not as high on the rank like the Witcher, GOT or Mandalorian. Just a note to those who have seen it, I have nothing against Jocelyn and I respect that she and James have a relationship in the show but due to the fact that the show ended on a sort of cliffhanger, and the fact that Jocelyn is a spoiled little princess, I wanted to justify the story for my own sanity and give James the love that he deserves:))

Filmmakers Monte Thompson & Rhea Landig discuss the biodiversity crisis & their film "Call of Life" from Green TV on Vimeo.

"Last week Jeff Bezos pledged to give one billion dollars to protect land, water, and wildlife habitats; in other words to help conserve nature. Bezos is joined by other billionaires who are waking up to the biodiversity crisis. But can the millions from a man who disrupted e-commerce be enough to slow extinction? How should that money be spent to preserve and protect species? To answer those questions and more, Betsy speaks with two filmmakers who made a documentary that addresses the drivers—hidden and otherwise—contributing to the biodiversity crisis..." ~ Betsy Rosenberg

THE POLLINATORS (2019)

Featuring Bret Adee, Jeff Anderson, Alan Ard, Dave Hackenberg, Susan Kegley, Bill McKibben, Dan Barber, Christina Grozinger, Jon Lundgren, Sam Ramsey, Jim Frazier, Maryann Frazier, Glenn Card, Leigh-Kathryn Bonner, Zac Browning and Lucas Criswell.

Directed by Peter Nelson.

Distributed by 1091. 92 minutes. Not Rated.

Guys, out today (June 16), video on demand: The Pollinators, which is a worthy documentary to watch. Director (and beekeeper) Peter Nelson traveled to 14 states (including Pennsylvania!) over one and a half years of pollination seasons to gather footage for this film. The resulting movie is a fascinating watch.

The Pollinators pairs super-relevant science with INCREDIBLE close up, slow-motion bee footage, early morning misty farm sunrises, and Douglas J. Cuomo’s peppy original score to create a beautiful and important documentary film. Make it worth your time to learn a little something about our soil, where our food comes from, and of course the pollinators that make our fruits and vegetables possible.

While the catastrophic worldwide decline in bees could easily be told as a story of gloom and doom, The Pollinators is a film of hope. It talks about where we are at in the current bee crisis, the suspected history of where it came from, and how we can make choices to make the situation better.

Bee health directly impacts 33% of the food America eats. So, if you think this issue doesn’t matter to you, give this film a watch.

If you already know this issue matters to you, I bet you haven’t thought about the degree of coordination and management that current farming and apiary science require to make sure that hives are getting to their needed locations…sometimes with very little notice.

Imagine 40-plus tractor trailers traversing the country, carrying the right amount of hives with bees to pollinate the February/March California almond season, because the almond industry requires the use of nearly 100% of our nation’s bee supply for pollination. This is a number that clearly cannot be managed by the native bees to the almond supplying region of the country, particularly with the current day annual loss of bees.

Imagine then that these same hives must be forklifted back onto tractor trailers and moved to the next region of the country (Maine blueberries?) in order to support that region’s crops. Am I the only person that didn’t realize that managed beekeeping was a multi-million-dollar industry with farmers renting hives for their crop pollination?

The Pollinators visually illustrates the complexities of pollination management and what apiaries are doing to stay on top of the hives in spite of current day, huge hive losses. This comes to sometimes 33-50% annually, felt to be due to three major stressors: mites, pesticides, and infections.

It talks about government regulation of chemicals (and lack thereof) and the steps that farmers can take in the industry to improve their land and crops to minimize the need for chemicals (a bottom up approach to improving the industry). Most importantly, it talks about the ways that we, as consumers, can help to support the apiary and local farming industries to improve practices, including food choices to focus on seasonal vs year-round supply.

So, head to your farmers market, make a farm-fresh meal, and watch The Pollinators. Add 2018’s The Biggest Little Farm, and you have a night of inspiration!

Ordered one of the in-stock items on a Monday. Very prompt shipping, arrived on Thursday. Solid, heavy package. When I opened it I found it to be very professionally packed. Though the box was a little scraped, everything inside was flawless. The instructions were incredibly easy to follow. The chair itself is very comfortable. I'm a large guy (6'3" 290) and I fit without any issues. I can spend long periods of time in the chair and I can't find any hot or pressure points. Very satisfied.

So I promised a review a few weeks ago but things got hectic due to the holidays, family visits, etc. So I am going to take the time to provide my review. I was going to do a video one, but I really don't know how to make videos like those fancy youtube ones: The initial setup of this office chair was honestly really easy. It was about 5 steps, took me around 10 minutes. Pretty standard for a regular chair. I am kind of glad I waited a few weeks because now I can give a very honest and thorough review. The second I started using it I felt like it was...different. This is because the chair I had for the past year was some cheap one I got on sale at Staples. I work from home so I spend literally half my life in the chair I use right now. Now, let me explain what I mean by different. My old chair was leather, which we all know will heat up like crazy after sitting on it for a long period of time. I would literally be peeling myself off the chair at the end of the day, sweat all over my back. So immediately I love the mesh backing of the ErgoChair. The bottom cushion is soft and quite cushiony. I've not had any problems at all with overheating on the tooshie either. Immediate a plus for me! Next, adjustments, adjustments, adjustments. I kind of felt like I was trying to fly a plane at first, there were so many different things I could adjust. The arm rests go up/down/in/out/left/right. The chair itself goes up and down like any chair. The back reclines back and forth. The neck rest goes up/down/in/out. There is also a knob for lumbar support. It really takes a lot of playing around with in order to get the right adjustments. I tend to change mine every so often when the time calls for it. Something I have mentioned before. This chair will not let you slouch. At least it won't for me. Trust me, I've tried slouching and it just hurts. This is a good thing. I am a person of bad posture. So the fact that it forces me to sit up, back straight, makes me feel better after a long days work. It also actually helps me stay focused and more concentrated. Ultimately, I love the chair. It's made working more comfortable for me. I've read a lot of controversial things, however, none of that matters because it's still worth it with what I received from them.

Got my chair delivered today. As mentioned by another reviewer, double-boxed in heavy duty boxes. All contents packed carefully and cleanly. Instructions must have been improved because I did not notice either of the following issues from a very early review (badly translated instructions; no instructions regarding washer placement) Tool and parts packed and labeled clearly; instructions make it very clear which parts go where. One set of extra hardware also provided in case of loss (one of everything) No need for any other tools than what is provided in the package. I'd say the unpacking and assembly was a pretty pleasant experience. Didn't get oil all over my hands from parts (just a bit from handling the washers). Didn't have to take apart and reassemble because of bad instructions. For me, the clean and secure packaging says a lot. You get a sense that the company cared enough to design the packaging so that the parts stay clean and are protected from damage. The parts do not look or feel cheap coming out of the box. The chair is pretty comfortable. I've seen the complaints about armrests but I don't really share in that. They could be better but not a major issue for me. The seat cushion feels like it's on the soft side. It's OK for me but if you're a big person, i could see you bottoming out on the seat. The headrest is really awesome. All office chairs should have headrests. Make sure to read the instructions so you hit all the adjustments available on the chair. Moving the seat forward did make a difference for me so try it out. Although it's not in the instructions, the lumbar support is also adjustable. You just give it a firm push up or down to move it vertically. At work, I sit on a Herman Miller provided by the company (Setu chair; not quite as well known as the others) It's a very comfortable working chair. Autonomous is also comfortable but different. My office chair supports my entire back more firmly but not with dedicated lumbar support. If you're new to it like me, you probably have to play with the position to get it into a comfortable place for you. I'm pretty short (5' 8") so the final adjustment ended up being at the bottom of the range. But the headrest really seals the deal for me. So nice to be able to sit back and relax for a few minutes with your head and neck fully supported. That is the only thing truly lacking on my Setu at the office. As expected, there is a bit of new plastic smell. I'm pretty sensitive to these smells though. It's not enough to give up on sitting in it but I do notice it. It will go away soon enough. For those of you who care, the chair does look nice. (I have the black/gray) It looks a lot nicer than anything you're likely to find at a local Office Depot or the like. If you're a reasonable person (and don't have any major physical ailments), I think you'd agree that you got a pretty good value for your money. Hope this helps those of you who are still waiting for the chair to arrive. Is it a Herman Miller replacement? No. Is it a pretty comfortable chair for the home office at a reasonable price? Yes.

Look what arrived today... Initial impression: well-built chair, easy assembly, and absolutely love the color!!! Very comfortable to sit on - the cushion is a bit stiff, which I think is a good thing (it does have to last for several years), so we will see how this goes! A+ for a new chair!!!

'Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" is finally here, providing a unique look into the mind of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. But if Nolan's three-hour epic leaves you wanting more, here's a cool (and free) opportunity to learn some more about that period of history. The Criterion Channel has announced that from now through July 31, 2023, subscribers and non-subscribers alike will be able to watch Jon Else's 1981 documentary "The Day After Trinity" for free on the streaming service. The film, which was nominated for an Academy Award and won a Peabody Award, tells the scientist's story through archival footage and a myriad of interviews with collaborators, friends, and family members, and it's currently unavailable to stream anywhere in the United States except The Criterion Channel.

"We were fortunate enough to have made the film at a time when so many of the original Manhattan Project people were still alive and happy to talk with me on camera — Hans Bethe, I. I. Rabi, Robert Wilson, Frank Oppenheimer, Robert Serber, Dorothy McKibben, Stan Ulam, Haakon Chevalier," director Jon Else said in a statement. "It may not be IMAX, but it's the real deal."

I watched "The Day After Trinity" a few days before seeing "Oppenheimer," and since I hadn't studied anything about this event in decades, I found it immensely helpful in terms of re-establishing a foundation for which this story takes place, providing valuable cultural context for what Oppenheimer and his peers were doing at the time and placing me in the milieu of Los Alamos and the Manhattan Project. But I suspect it will work equally well as a follow-up to Nolan's movie, allowing viewers to compare and contrast his take on the material with the real-life accounts of what happened.

That trailer captures the somber tone the film adopts in the aftermath of the bombing of Hiroshima, but the majority of the movie isn't quite as dire. It's not exactly a barrel of laughs, given the subject matter, but it's much more about the scientific community in the 1930s and '40s, how Oppenheimer was viewed by his colleagues, the immense task of setting up an entire community in Los Alamos, what it was like to live and work there, how Oppenheimer interacted with government and military personnel and basically became the de facto leader of a small town during the race to invent the world's most terrible weapon.

"'The Day After Trinity' remains the high-water mark in documentary representation of the Manhattan Project, and it is currently unavailable to stream anywhere in the US except the Criterion Channel. Millions of people will see Christopher Nolan's 'Oppenheimer' in the coming weeks, and many may want to compare Nolan's imagining of that historic moment with the documentary record," a spokesperson for the Criterion Channel said. "We felt it was important to remove any barrier to people discovering Jon Else's landmark film, so we've taken down the paywall and made it available to subscribers and non-subscribers alike. Of course, we hope some of those viewers will discover the many other treasures on the Criterion Channel and decide to subscribe, but our main goal at this moment is to help this remarkable and important film reach the largest possible audience."

"The Day After Trinity" was written by Jon Else along with David Webb Peoples and Janet Peoples, the husband and wife team that went on to write Terry Gilliam's "12 Monkeys" together; David also wrote notable films like "Blade Runner" and "Unforgiven." It's also worth noting that The Criterion Channel has a director's commentary that's also available to watch for free through July 31, so if you're fascinated by this period in history, don't miss this opportunity to dive deeper into the world of Oppenheimer.'
