[The Epoch Times, November 10, 2023](Epoch Times reporter Ye Zijie compiled and reported) “Oppenheimer” grossed nearly 950 million U.S. dollars at the global box office. However, the film was rejected because it did not show the Hiroshima atomic bombing and the fear it caused. Being questioned. On the 8th, great director Christopher Nolan explained that because this is a movie from Oppenheimer’s perspective.
According to “Variety”, “Oppenheimer” shows the intense details of the Trinity nuclear bomb test. Oppenheimer detonated the atomic bomb for the first time in the desert of New Mexico, but did not show the explosion scenes of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. American director Spike Lee and others questioned this, hoping Nolan would show all the harm the Japanese had experienced.
Spike Lee said in an interview with the “Washington Post”: “(Nolan) is a great filmmaker. This is not a criticism but an opinion. If the film is three hours long, I would like to add a few minutes regarding the Japanese. What happens is, people are vaporized, and many years later, a lot of people are exposed to radiation. It’s not like he doesn’t have power, he can tell the studio what to do. I hope the end of the film shows two atomic bombs being dropped on Japan.”
Nolan explained to “Variety” that Oppenheimer was far away from Japan when the atomic bomb was dropped, and he learned regarding the explosion through the radio. “The film presents Oppenheimer’s subjective experience, and I have always adhered to this. Oppenheimer Benheimer heard the news of the explosion at the same time as everyone else in the world. What I want to show is that a person begins to clearly understand the consequences of his unexpected actions; this is related to what I do not present and what I present. As important.”
Nolan also said that he was surprised that “Oppenheimer” might achieve such a high box office. He believed that this was because movie fans were eager to see new and novel things. “For some movies, the timing is just right, which you can’t predict.” . When you make a movie, you have two or three years before it comes out, so you have to try to capture the interest of the audience. But sometimes you catch a wave and you tell the story that people are expecting. of.”
“It’s clear from the box office that audiences are looking for something they’ve never seen before,” he said. “We’ve gone through a period where studio executives felt like their franchises might go on forever and be predictable. They feel reassured that it’s going to be successful. But you can’t deny that fans crave novelty.”
