Oppenheimer

“When he’s giving the ‘victory’ speech after the Japanese bombings, Oppenheimer begins to experience the guilt that would plague him. The way it’s handled deserves kudos. Just a few sounds — a random scream, a tactile moment where he treads on the shell of a child’s body, and the hallucination of his supporters’ faces melting, are all that’s needed. That sequence haunted me for weeks. Beautiful cinematography.”
