keeley putting her whole entire leg up on the tp dispenser to get that tampon in is so real and how i know that juno probably had a hand in writing that scene
Having just watched Oppenheimer, I now fully understand why all the critics and film fans around the world are raving about it. The movie really is as utterly brilliant - and thought-provoking - as everyone is saying, with a powerhouse, hands-down career best performance from Cillian Murphy in the lead role. It will be a travesty if he isn’t at the very least nominated for the Best Actor Oscar though I know I won’t see a better, more complex and impressive performance for a VERY long time - certainly not this year - so I’m fully expecting him to be showered with accolades come the next awards season.
Robert Downey Jr. also delivers a stand-out performance; outside of the MCU, it’s by far the best role he’s had in years, while the Trinity test explosion scene, that Nolan - who continues to both excel and outdo himself with every film he writes and directs - has talked so much about, is genuinely powerful, unsettling and awe-inspiring. Murphy has said in a number of interviews that he believes Oppenheimer is Nolan’s magnum opus - and I wholeheartedly agree.
Just saw someone on Twitter complain about the lack of Japanese people in Oppenheimer, and what did you expect??? Did you want the final act to be the bomb dropping and see people burning alive???
The reason why we don’t see a Japanese perspective is because one, including a Japanese perspective, just to see how bad the suffering was would be exploitation. Two, to see an accurate and sensitive take on how the japanese felt about Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan (as incredible as he is) isn’t the right person to do this. And three, it’s based on Oppenheimer’s biography
Oppenheimer, the movie, literally shows you white people doing something evil and just incredible inhumane because they removed themselves away, both emotionally and physically, from the people they are hurting. Nagasaki and Hiroshima only exist in those men’s distant thoughts and imaginations. One guy literally asks to take a city off the bombing because that’s where he had his honeymoon. It’s disturbing and unsettling, as if those people were not real human beings. The lack of Japanese people drives the entire point home.
Also, Japanese cinema is right there. Barefoot Gen, Grave of the Fireflies, or Hiroshima (responsible for showing to many Americans the effects of the bombs for the first time) are just a few of the many, many decades of post-war Japanese movies we have
