Also, what context do they come up in? Is there a sex scene? I bet there is. Now why does a film about atomic bombs need a sex scene.

[–] exoplanetary 48 points 1 year ago (3 children)

There is a sex scene, and yeah, it actually contributes to the plot of the film. It’s because it’s not so much just a movie about the atom bomb as it is a film about Oppenheimer.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Ahh, that's what I was expecting. Can't have a biography without a sex scene it seems

[–] exoplanetary 31 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Heh, yeah. In fairness though Oppenheimer’s affairs with communists did contribute to his security clearance being revoked, so it is actually somewhat relevant here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh true I did hear about that

[–] teuast 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

most people do have sex sometimes

[–] Graphine 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh please. We all know sex is just a legend.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I saw it on the internet once.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Pah don't believe everything you see on the internet!

[–] Obsession 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It's very rare to have a life without sex, so ¯\(ツ)/¯

I thought it was very tastefully done, and contributed to the plot

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Biographies should start at conception really, it's the only logical choice.

We should rethink a lot about documentaries in general, after all
It's very rare to have a life without toilet breaks, so ¯\(ツ)

A lot of great ideas must have been made there of which it is not generally known, it is up to documentaries to address this lack of valuable knowledge

[–] subarctictundra 2 points 1 year ago

This is a really good point

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Hmm I suppose, I just feel like sex is a private part of peoples lives and I'm not really interested to see the intimate side of most people, including him. But as another commentrr said, it was quite important to the plot in the particular case of Oppenheimer

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not as rare as you might think ×(

[–] betterdeadthanreddit 1 points 1 year ago

Not until they make one about you.

There is a sex scene, and yeah, it actually contributes to the plot of the film.

I'm not surprised. Nolan does not permit for a single superfluous moment in anything he creates.

[–] khajimak 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, the mention of JFK in Oppenheimer is superfluous.

[–] solivine 2 points 1 year ago

Feel like fading to black achieves the same result

[–] STRIKINGdebate2 11 points 1 year ago

Lots of movies suffer this issue tbh. Nolan isn't unique. Why does a small underground movie about a day in the life of a plumber need sex scenes or a pizza delivery man? Makes it impossible to find a relatable protagonist tbh.

It's during the scene where he says "Now I am death, the destroyer of worlds" scene
