As I sat watching the Hollywood blockbuster Oppenheimer all I could think of was Edward Said. In his famous essay “Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Victims,” Said argued that there was no way to understand the ideology of Zionism----the idea of Jewish racial supremacy---without examining the experience of those who suffered from it, namely Palestinians like himself.
Ignoring the consequences of the NM test on local populations, and omitting the part about Oppenheimer fighting for the bomb to be dropped on Japan are the parts of this article that stick out the most to me.
They skimmed over the entire manufacture of the bomb so they could fixate on Oppenheimer’s sex life.
Today I learned on this thread that because the movie is a biography that means glaring omissions and focusing on
while removing the scientific contributions and actual relevance of women to the Manhattan Project is just what biographies do, actually. 
They did that one scene where a woman scientist told off her male colleages for concern trolling her fertility. And that was it. That’s all you really needed.
According to most Nolan apologists, that actually counts and that really is all that is necessary and if anything is generous on St. BWAAAM’s part.
