On this week’s episode, Sonny Bunch (The Bulwark), Alyssa Rosenberg (The Washington Post), and Peter Suderman (Reason) ask if movie theaters could wind up being the biggest casualty of the ongoing actor’s strike despite this weekend’s huge box office returns for Barbenheimmer. Then they review Oppenheimer, which is a clear frontrunner for best picture of the year. Make sure to swing by Bulwark+ on Friday for our Nolan Draft.

'Oppenheimer' Is Transcendent Cinema
I saw it last night. Excellent. It was Monday afternoon and the big screen venue was nearly full with a lot of people my age. Given that I saw it in Richland, WA, I suspect many were ex Hanford or Pacific Northwest Laboratory workers. :-)
An outstanding film in every respect most of all for making complex issues and facts so readily understandable. I had read the biography, American Prometheus, on which the film is based and also did a deep dive one summer with a plethora of books on the making of the Atomic Bomb, yet this movie, even though I knew the "story" inside out was edge of your seat exciting despite its three hour length. One of the very few movies I would consider seeing again. DO NOT MISS!
