We&rsqu🔯o;ll have to wait a while to see what the critics make of Oppenheimer, but it’s got its first review regardless – from the co-author of the book that inspired director Christopher Nolan’s biopic.

Kai Bird, who co-wrote 2005 biography American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer with Martin J. Sherwin, gavܫe an effusive response during a talk at the (H/T ).

"I am, at the moment, stunned and emotionally recovering from having seen it. I think it is going to be a stunning artistic achievement, and I have hopes it will actually stimulate a national, even global conversation about the issues that Oppenheimer was desperate to speak out about: abou🍨t🌄 how to live in the atomic age, how to live with the bomb and about McCarthyism, what it means to be a patriot, and what is the role for a scientist, in a society drenched with technology and science, to speak out about public issues," Bird said.

Oppenheimer stars Cillian Murphy as the eponymous theoretical physicist. Nolan, in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a recent interview with Total Film, said he was "blown away" by his performance.

"You’re making a demand of an actor that very few actors in the history of film ca🧜n rise to," Nolan said. "I will say that even with that confidence in him, 🦩he was continually surprising me on set every day. And when we got into the edit suite and were putting the performance together, and seeing the truth of it, I was absolutely blown away."

The cast also includes Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., and Florence Pugh. It releases on July 21 – the same day as Barbie, a scheduling conflict tha𒆙t’s been the source of much discussion online.
