‘Oppenheimer’ Stews in Old Lies

This summer’s blockbuster Christopher Nolan film, Oppenheimer, is now available on the various video streaming services, just in time for the holiday interlude between Christmas and the new year. Having just read a puff piece about the film by New York Post movie critic, Johnny Oleksinski, I thought I was looking at the British Guardian or (for those old enough to remember) the Communist Daily Worker.  Oleksinski couldn’t contain his praise for  Nolan, who scripted this “masterpiece,” and his “remarkable treatment” of the movie’s “morally complex subject matter.”
