Matt Damon and Emily Blunt on the making of 'Oppenheimer'
#Oppenheimer #EmilyBlunt #MattDamon
Emily's performance was such a standout in the film. She portrayed a woman who understood the mission and the legacy. Hope she gets her much deserved Best Supporting Actress Oscar.
Thomas Shelby thoroughly deserves an Oscar nod for his portrayal of Oppenheimer.
Who?
@@bryanmachin3738 Google it brother 👍
Who is Thomas Shelby?
@@ginnynilsen5106 Google it. It'll make sense then 👍
Folks stopped breathing for long moments at our Friday viewing. It was extraordinary.
My father-in-law was a physicist recruited by Enrico Fermi to work on the atomic bomb. He is now deceased but told me that the scientists who worked on this project were promised it would never be dropped but only used as the big stick. He described to me the horror he and the other scientists felt when they saw the destruction and death it caused. Colonel Pash (played by Casey Affleck) was a family friend and went to the same Russian Orthodox Church in D.C. My husband knew him as a boy and said that Pash made a point of stopping and talking to each and every child every Sunday.
The scientists were not that naive. 🙄
Not sure if Oppenheimer knew how it would be used beforehand, but after the fact he did defend its use. There’s an interesting interview here on UA-cam he did in the 50s before he died and it is interesting to hear him ruminate on it. He discussed the devastation that the war had been having up to that point and the lives lost and basically said he felt the cost of lives moving forward would have exceeded the number taken when the bomb was dropped. You could tell he felt the impact of being involved in something that caused massive terror and loss of life, though.
Did not know Rami Malek was in this movie. That's cool
Even better than the Oppenheimer quote is “Matt Damon!!!!”
Easy to forget Matt was with Emily in that terrible Adjustment Bearu movie and Cillian was with her in Quiet Place 2 just years ago
I like presidents who talk to 6'-tall imaginary bunny rabbits named Harvey💙💙💙💙
Hey, I smell red herring!
@@deanfiora4227 Maybe it's time for you to change your underwear then...
I got to go to Oak ridge science museum and my curiosity just kept peaking exhibit after exhibit I was mentally wrung out when I left. I think this movie will do the same. (The gadget) or Manhattan Project was a huge subject to think about can’t wait to see it.
I just saw this movie 🍿🎥 the other night and all the casts did a phenomenal jobs in their roles respectively especially cilian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr and Matt Damon.
Emily deserved an OSCAR. She was fantastic in the Quiet Place. She was fantastic in edge of tomorrow. C Nolan is a treasure! All stars cast!
“Best film of the century” - what studio paid for that exaggeration.
Spoken like who hasn't seen the film.
Barbie was better ngl
From the clips and from the stills on IMDb, this seems to be a remake of "Day One" (1989). If you blanked out the actors' faces, it would be hard to tell which movie was which.
In 1966 I read the book "Brighter than a thousand Suns" by Robert Jungk, an anti-nuclear, peace, and environmental champion.
One chapter deals with a meeting with Hitler and the highest military leaders in 1944 when things were looking very grim..
Now by some Prussian understanding of bureaucratic organisation, the department of science, metallurgy and things nuclear fell under the the "Postal, Radio and Telegraph" Department.
German scientists had just a few days before solved the most important element of building a nuclear bomb and the "Postmaster General" could hardly wait to break the news to Hitler and the top military men around that table that Germany would soon have a nuclear bomb.
When his turn to speak finally came, Hitler angrily growled him down, saying "here we are, gentlemen, we have the army, the navy and the Luftwaffe around this table and the Postmaster, of all people, is going to save the FatherLand!"
And that is why the German nuclear bomb project, which was years ahead of the US Manhattan Project, was snuffed out.
German scientists discovered fission in 1939, and academic conferences were soon held to discuss the possibility of military uses. But Germany never had a single organization like OSRD to coordinate scientific research for the war effort. As a result, there were several under-funded groups looking at the possibility of an atomic bomb, but it never got any further than that. According to the Office of Science and Technology, the US began pulling far ahead. of their German counterparts" by 1941. The US built the first nuclear reactor in 1942. Germany never managed to operate one. The main effort under Heisenberg was actually scuttled in 1942. My guess is the purported Hitler quote is apocryphal.
I wrote my masters thesis on Atomic Diplomacy. Not my term it was coined by a historian Gar Alperovitz when he was working on his PHD in 1965-66. Oppenheimer covers the same ground as the film Fat Man and Little Boy” 1989 which starred Paul Newman as General Groves and Dwight Schultz as Robert Oppenheimer. In my 1988 thesis I laid out 15 points that contradict the official narrative that the atomic bombs were used to bring a swift end to the war and save about 500,000 to 1 milillion US casualties that an invasion of the Japanese home islands would have cost. Among the points I made several members of Truman’s cabinet felt that just the declaration of war by the Soviet Union ( which was imminent would bring Japan to the negotiation. table. Also Japan was sending peace overtures to the Swedish legation in Moscow and other countries. In 1980 The BBC did an excellent Mini- series withe Sam Waterston as Oppenheimer in 7 parts. It’s incredibly difficult to condense so much important history into a 2 or even 3 hour film. Atomic Diplomacy 1966 Gar Alperovitz!!! Read It.
Same territory was covered, and very well, in "Day One" (1989).
And for a very good documentary on the subject, see "The Day After Trinity" (1980).
Thanks for the tips, I haven't seen either.
Why are they doing this interview during the strike? Was this recorded earlier?
MSNBC should be talking to Op-ruh about her pdf file ties.
Matt surely carried the whole movie on his back, he must be awarded Oscar for best supporting role
Just caught the film at my local movieplex. It's a solid 9/10. I can see it as a Best Picture nominee, as well as Cillian Murphy being up for Best Actor. Not to mention both Matt Damon and Robert Downey, Jr. as Best Supporting Actor. Still, I'm not sure the film needed to be three hours long.
id rather have a 3 hour film than a 2 hour when i pay for tickets and food at movie theatre
What about Josh Peck? He's a legend in his own right
@@justinjames2436 So quantity over quality lol
@@DG-qj9lw I feel like it was quality for those interested in science or film
the film didn't need to be made at all and you didn't need to watch it. :p You could have read one of the many books written on the subject matter or watched one of the old movies based on the same story.
There would be no atom bomb without my grandfather who told them how much it would cost. Lol My Grandmother brought her youngest son, my Uncle Bobby. I have to see this movie.
The first Bomb cost 2 billion in 1945 so in todays price it would be about 19000000 trillion dollars
What took place at Los Alomos with dr. oppenheimer and the rest of the scientists was nothing short of near miraculous but the bigger story to me regarding the manhattan project were the two Uranium enrichment plants that were built in Tennessee and Washington state...they were mammouth projects never before seen in history
"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be afraid."
~ Jesus Christ, John 14:27 (KJV) 🕊
Too much emphasis on the actors and not enough on the subject matter!!!
How dare you not telling about the victims.
After watching this movie in the theater, like many I though what an awesome movie with great performances by all, but I can't help compare this movie to "Fat Man And Little Boy", basically the same story with great actors giving great performances (Lets not forget Paul Newman's awesome performance as Leslie Groves). I'll admit Oppenheimer focuses more closely on the man himself and the latter more on the overall Manhattan Project in general, but still basically the same movie.

hahahaha she lived an exciting short life didn't she. :p Had a crush. Lived behind walls and in the floor. How very exciting and still to have such a rosy outlook on life.
Groves didn't lead the Manhattan Project---That was Oppenheimer. Groves was the Miltary Leader wgho recruited Oppenhiemer to the project
they squeeze in so many pre recorded interviews before the strike 😅
Ashley Biden's diary: "I remember... showers w/ my dad (probably not appropriate), being turned on when I wasn't supposed to be."
Nothing about Oppenheimer. Someone you probably never heard of until discussion about this film.

'' I am death. The destroyer of worlds.''
Robert Oppenheimer
I have become death
You're both incorrect:
"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."
It is a movie, stop being 12.
@@ronbelanger4113 It actually happened. The U.S.A.'s most shameful event. Imagine using nukes against civilians
This quote is not by Oppenheimer but from Bhagvad Geeta. This is actually a miss translation, the actual quote is " Now I have become time , destroyer of worlds."
Is Matt Damon a scab ?
What happened with the strike ???
The movie was finished before they went on strike. Have some knowledge of the subject before you comment
@@pomp6584Give dingleberry a break,she's kind of slow.
@@pomp6584
OMG I just learned that Matt Damon took a pay cut and only charged $4 Million to play his role in Oppenheimer.
He's a true man of the people and stands in solidarity to all the workers who made this film possible !!!!
@@Dingleberry777 careful, your starting to sound like a communist 😳
@@pomp6584 Nah I'm pretty distant politically from Bernie.
Truman used it wisely. It stopped WW2 in it's tracks. The Japanese were warned and heavily leafleted but chose to continue their manifest destiny aggression. All in all, it worked out well for most, but not all (as is always the case in war) If they would not have started war with us, those two cities may have been spared. Very bad decision making on Japan's part. So glad they are now one of our best allies. But we blew it by not staying allied and friendly with Russia. I feel things would have been much much different if we'd embraced them. After all, they brought Hitler down with us. We didn't do it by ourselves.
Tom Hanks is a pdf file.
Isn't it weird how the MSM absolutely does not want you to see Sound of Freedom ?
No one wants to see that garbage
@@deicide666100
Yeah you leftists would probably be routing for the bad guys anyway... just stay home. (Awkward)
Is it the movie about people finally waking up to the evils, of the Christian church. And getting away from that cult?.
The usa studios will not get the cash, they want the fools to watch their garbage instead.
What do you mean? I've heard of it and will watch it, but Nolan will always be the big guy in the room when he comes out with a new movie.
MSNBC and Universal Pictures are both owned by Comcast. I just hope that Damon and Blunt pre-recorded this interview, and they aren't scabs promoting a studio's movie while their colleagues are on the picket line.
The Sound of Freedom is the greatest film in the last 20 years
Only RWNJs think that.
It's weird how the MSM does not want you to see *Sound of Freedom* but endorses this movie and Netflix's "Cuties"
*Yuck*
Is it the one about groomed republicans, finally escaping the maga cult of individual one?
@Dingleberry777 if fake news endorses a movie you know it's woke, trans bs
@@yvonneplant9434everyone who isn't a Peter file thinks it's great.
I think the interview went into the spoiler territory.
This movie was already made before back in the 1980s but I get your point.
The movie was brilliant.
Joe, are those Stan Smith tennis shoes???
Studio execs disappointed they couldn't drop an A bomb for publicity.
Nolan likes to make movies about santa for adults, interstellar and now the firebomb.Narnia and unicorns, pure fantasy
I can forgive Joe's former political choices. I can even forgive Oppenheimer. I can not and will not forgive white sneakers with no socks.
Socks without tops (sneaker socks)lots of people wear them
I started to read here looking for such an observation. I was not disappointed. Something also needs to be said for Emily’s blouse.

Well the last time humanity destroyed itself with technology was tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years ago. We are destined to do it all again. :)
What's with the sneakers Joe?
Sound of Freedom is doing really well.... anything Mika😅
Well with whom other than RWNJs.
She doesn't want you to watch that.
@@yvonneplant9434well with everyone who isn't a Peter file.
MSNBC hasn’t covered Mission Impossible, Spiderverse, or Barbie. Omg! Conspiracy! 😱 😂
ACTUALLY - it’s because it’s based on a true story that has huge historic significance and is still taught in schools throughout the country today.
You know - something a news channel would cover. This isn’t E!
I'm going.
@savingdemocracy5526 Like I said, irrational.
Imagine praising a movie that depicts the creation of the deadliest weapon the world has ever known, and then defame a movie depicting rescuing children from traffickers. 🤪
Actually they haven’t spoken on Sound of Freedom at all.
Similarly nor have they on Mission Impossible or Indiana Jones.
Since it is a news rather than movie channel.
@@Film_man280 It's a "news" rather than movie channel, as they discuss an upcoming movie?! Wow. Ignorance truly is bliss huh!? 🤪
if it wasn't for traffickers your bleeding heart would have nothing to bleed for. :p
Does this woman age at all, I remember her when I saw devil wears Prada when I was a kid.
Should they not be on strike? Why are they promoting?!
Scarborough makes 8 mil/yr, yet can't hire an assistant to help him pick out a decent outfit?
As a history buff, the film should be great! But the interview? A suit, white sneakers, no socks? Come on! I have to suspect that Keith Olbermann's opinion of Joe Scarborough must be close to the mark! Frankly, I can't listen to JS, (a "reformed" Republican? I doubt it.) but has he no sense of decorum? (I would wonder if his wife lets him go out that way . . . but we already know the answer to that!)
Nice shoes Joe!
1.3 billion to Ukraine again.
Who’s the joker asking the questions?
Nope. Why praise killer?
You are obviously quite ignorant concerning J. Robert Oppenheimer.
8 billion people in the world. We need a lot more killers. :p And a lot less bleeding hearts.
Film was too long and slow. Wife and I both wanted to leave half way through but didn't because we each thought the other was completely absorbed in it.
What a great interviewer Joe is! This makes me want to see this movie!
“Went to waste at the ironing board”. With respect, being a mother is the greatest gift to women that can ever be received. Before I became a stay at home mom, I made tons of money as an engineer but I wouldn’t trade those days for these days for all the money in the world. Being with my child, and being mother is the greatest gift I have ever received.
That’s Hollywood leftist mentality for you. Babies are to be aborted, not raised.
We never had kids and are totally happy with that. We watch our friends kids abusing, exploiting and often ignoring them altogether. We both had great careers and enjoyed them immensely. Being 'Mom' isn't for every woman.
Why are they doing interviews? I thought they were on strike 🪧
Still glorifying DOOMSDAY.
So sad that there are some strikes going on. I cannot support going to theaters at this time.
It's okay. I'll go watch the movie a second time in honor of you. :)
Emily Blunt's character was all but invisible in this movie. Did this woman have no story to tell?
Well when you find a woman director she can tell the story from all the women's perspectives. :)
Joe's sock model is obviously Tucker Carlson!
Interviewer is trying to steal the show by wearing sneakers and why do we need to even see his feet?
Emily Blunt dresses like an old church lady.
Many women "went to waste" at the ironing board back then. What a horrible thing to say about the young women who raised the next generation. What could be more important than staying at home and looking after your children. It's because we abandoned those principles that things went wrong.
I agree. I think that statement was a little hypocritical. She pays someone to stand at an ironing board and raise her children. I read a very good book 30 years ago called "The Way It Never Was". It talks about how 40-50 percent of women worked in the 1950s. The "Mrs. Clever" portrayal is a concept not the reality of the 1950s. Many women were scientists, authors, poets, telephone operators, etc.
Almost anything. And thanks for your question.
@@Elizabeth-dw6lc Nonsense.
I really like Emily Blunt and I would think if asked she’d say her most important work is her children. I don’t necessarily think she meant it to belittle the importance of raising children, but maybe just that it is very difficult and inherently focuses on day to day minutia rather than mentally challenging tasks. And I think it’s true that even though it’s vitally important, some women don’t really thrive in that environment. But i also see your point on how it’s a sad statement and feels like our culture minimizes the work that women do and have done for centuries.
Why must anyone choose between having a vocation and being a good parent of children? Haven't the overwhelming majority of men been doing both for millennia? My grandmother (b. 1910) was educated and intelligent, but it was socially unacceptable for her to earn a living alongside her husband. Her intellect was (self)confined to voracious reading and crosswords.
We abandoned those misogynistic principles that prohibited women from opening bank accounts in their own name. That relegated them to working in jobs that never rose to senior management, at half the salary of any man with identical experience and education. That demonized single mothers and allowed deadbeat men to get away with no responsibility for their children. What went wrong, exactly?
I like Mika, hey Joe what about the wife huh.
"Most ambitious film yet"....
When it comes out in Cinema Tenet will probably disagree
Future flop just like all the rest of these leftist propaganda movies 😎
Political hacks ahead. Not a movie rabbit hole
Will someone please tell me where I can find a BRANDON video? I want to make sure he's still alive. 😂
He’s still outsmarting you daily snowflake 😂
Oh, he's alive, and he won't be sitting in prison when the end comes. Donald Trump in an orange suit will be so rewarding to see.
Yanks have trouble staying on task, it seems from your post that is correct!
Follow the drool trail.😉
Are you an adult?
I think this movies not going to do well. It looks very much like those other political drama biopics and people are exhausted with political drama in real life to pay money to see more of it.
I disagreement. The viewing public is thirsty for a quality movie.
There are plenty of old people that are interested in watching this film. They lived through the cold war. Plenty of history buffs and nerds like me enjoy political biopics. I've watched Charlie Wilsons war dozens of times.

I went on discount tuesday. :p It was a full show. :) Lots of baby boomers want to watch this show and those still left from the silent generation.
It is an excellent movie, but I did not enjoy it.
How come MSNBC hasn't spoken about the Sound of Freedom? I thought that movie was doing extremely well. And it came out a while ago? Maybe they just don't want to talk about kids being trafficked. Oh well. That's old news anyway. I'd rather here about A-bombs. Not Kids being trafficked bombs. A-bombs feels more uplifting.

This movie just shows the reason why I , with an IQ of 185 never became a physicist because I refused to build a bomb to destroy humanity
what did you build that was worth anything to humanity? You could have built a space ship or a space station.
… technically & cinematographically spectacular (over too long) banality?
… Oppenheimer was not so much Prometheus as Pandore (... twin of Pandora) who let out evils, pestilence & maker of tool of annihilation of humankind.
