Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
Answer:
The epic biopic "Oppenheimer" (2023) told the story of the eponymous physicist who led the Los Alamos laboratory as part of the Manhattan Project that developed the world's first nuclear bomb. The movie was a huge critical and box office success and dominated the awards season for 2023, winning seven Oscars including Best Picture and a first Best Director award for Christopher Nolan.
Cillian Murphy played the lead role of J. Robert Oppenheimer, for which he was given the Academy Award for Best Actor. Robert Downey Jr. in the role of government official Lewis Strauss won the Best Actor in a Supporting Role Oscar. Emily Blunt as Kitty Oppenheimer was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.
Playing the members of the Manhattan Project were; Matt Damon as Major General Leslie Groves, the director of the project; Josh Hartnett as Ernest Lawrence; Rami Malek as David Hill; and Jack Quaid as Richard Feynman. Scientists who were not part of the project but that appeared in the film were Kenneth Branagh as Danish physicist Niels Bohr; and Tom Conti as Albert Einstein.
In the political sphere were; Alden Ehrenreich as Lewis Strauss's Senate aide; Jason Clarke as Judge Roger Robb, the special counsel overseeing the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) hearing into Oppenheimer that acts as a framing device for the movie; Gary Oldman as President Harry Truman; and Matthew Modine as Vannevar Bush, chairman of the National Defense Research Committee
Florence Pugh played Jean Tatlock, a Communist sympathiser and romantic interest for Oppenheimer whose relationship in part led to him being investigated by the AEC. Louise Lombard played Ruth Tolman, the renowned psychologist and close friend of Oppenheimer.
Of the wrong choices, Berenger, Cotillard and Caine were all in the Christopher Nolan movie "Inception" (2010), whilst Ben Affleck's brother Casey and Stellan Skarsgard's son Gustaf were both in "Oppenheimer" (2023).
