Viewers are divided over whether the film should have shown Japanese victims of the weapon created by physicist Robert Oppenheimer. Experts say it’s complicated.

    Literally half the point of the character development in the film is his realisation of the distance he has from the use and effects of his discovery. Showing them would undermine the whole thing.

    Also the given his second to last film was literally about the allies fighting Nazis in WW2 I don’t know what you mean about conservative coding.

      Not one to defend conservatives but I’m going to disagree with the part where it’s implied conservatives can’t fight nazis. Sure, US conservatives are closer and closer to using mein kampf as a second bible, but that’s to be expected in a country where everyone to left of Thatcher is a godless communist.
