[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The movie was outstanding. But then, I like thoughtful movies that leave me thinking about the subject when I leave the theatre. Great casting. [/quote]

Is Richard Feynman featured in the movie and is he depicted with accuracy (ie being the most creative and thoughtful member of the team)?  [/quote]

He’s in it but not a huge role. Young and smiley.

Well that is just silly, especially if they make Oppenheimer more than a project manager.  The brains were with the young guys, especially Feynman. [/quote]

Oppenheimer could follow along with all of the science but he was never creative enough to figure out how to solve some of the very tricky problems involved.  Still, he ranks in the smallest top levels of human intelligence. [/quote]

They didn't portray him solving problems - he even jokes that isn't hands-on and isn't good at math - he is bringing together teams of brilliant scientists. Amazing how all of the pieces came together. [/quote]

Cool.  Have not seen it yet but was hoping they didn’t make him out to be some typical Hollywood caricature who “did it all.”  [b] That said, I think many of those who did do the work quietly downplayed it for the rest of their lives[/b].  [/quote]

And their struggle with the work is portrayed as well.
