  1. Because it is not a movie about Hiroshima, it’s about the man behind the bomb. Otherwise they should also include the attack on Pearl Harbour, which started the road to Hiroshima. But that would have upset many people in Japan too.

  2. Please read the article, the title is VERY editorial imo.

    >But in fact, Oppenheimer’s lines in dozens of scenes showed his shock at the reality of the atomic bombing. That was enough for me.”

    >Prof Masao Tomonaga, an A-bomb survivor and honorary director of the Japanese Red Cross Nagasaki Atomic Bomb hospital, said he had come away believing Oppenheimer was an “anti-nuclear” film.

    I wonder why they decided to go for that title if not for clic baiting…

    Like other said, it’s not a movie about the bomb.

  3. Huh! Then I wouldn’t recommend they watch the movie Tolkien. There isn’t enough about Frodo, the Oliphaunts and my axe!

  4. It’s pretty obtuse. The movie is from Oppenheimers pov, and he never once visited Hiroshima or Nagasaki, so why in the world would there be a Hiroshima or Nagasaki scene?

  5. What? The title and the article itself are completely at odds.

    Click bait if I’ve ever seen it. Controversial for the sake of being controversial.

  6. *The Wind Rises* didn’t have enough about the horrors of Pearl Harbor /s

  7. This thread is basically white folks thrashing the very people they bombed, mind you, those people were CIVILIANS not combatants.
