![Nobody's Fool / Fat Man & Little Boy (Double Feature) [DVD]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51ZmRrEmysL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
As others have written in reviews, I have an existential interest in the topic, my father had been fighting in the Pacific since late 1942. In that essential sense, I am grateful for what transpired, as opposed to the meat grinder that was going to be the Japanese home islands.
This film is slanted somewhat, but it is important to consider perspectives, and that's what it does. I think the most important line in the film comes very late in the movie, the doctor to Groves, "I've been to Oak Ridge...." We should all consider that. Worth a watch.

A historical drama that goes for the heart
Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2020
I have actually been to the Hiroshima museum built remind us all of the power of the bomb. It's almost surreal because it is a quite immersive exhibition such that when you leave it, you cannot help but be exhilarated at how Hiroshima has been rebuilt. The museum is built right next to one of the few structures left standing. A dome that the bombers used as an aiming point for the airburst. There are countless enlarged photos showing the complete devastation so you are actually taken aback by how well Hiroshima recovered with skyscrapers towering around you. So this film has always touched me with it's portrayal of the key people involved with the creation of the two atomic devices used. Having watched every episode of Star Trek Next Generation it shocked me that Dwight Schultz portrayed Oppenheimer. Paul Newman was great as always but even the secondary characters played by John Cusack, Laura Dern and others were memorable. The film not only portrays events and circumstances, but uses the talented cast to dig into motivations and cost. Everything changed after what was created and this film attempts to give us feeling for what the people involved were feeling. I never hear anyone talk about this film but it definitlely touched me.
