Buy me a coffee ☕🗿 Oppenheimer, directed by Christopher Nolan and released in 2023, is a biographical film that delves into the life and contributions of J. Robert Oppenheimer, a brilliant American physicist known as the “father of the atomic bomb.“ The film stars renowned actor Cillian Murphy in the titular role, bringing the complex character of Oppenheimer to life with depth and authenticity. One of the most iconic moments in Oppenheimer's life was his famous quote after witnessing the successful detonation of the first atomic bomb during the Manhattan Project in 1945. Quoting a verse from the ancient Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, Oppenheimer remarked, “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.“ This statement not only revealed the gravity of the situation but also reflected the immense moral and ethical burden that weighed on him, as he realized the terrifying power of the weapon he helped create.
