He’s so weird you might think director Christopher Nolan must be making it up.
But the portrayal is close to 100 percent true.
Oppenheimer was the father of the atomic bomb.
So the government revoked his security clearance, booting him off his Atomic Energy Commission job.
He thought H-bombs were a worse idea than A-bombs.
At first, he didnt think H-bombs could work.
He also naively thought the Soviets would sensibly agree to limit nukes at the peak of the Cold War.
