We are in the cinema about to see Oppenheimer. I’m very nervous. I have spent the entire day translating the account of a doctor who spent the days following the bomb treating the victims so I am in a very biased mindset, I know. But god I hope this is done well. A group of colleagues and people I put out a private and public plea to Nolan and Atlas entertainment to include epilogue text in the film and acknowledge the plight of the hibakusha and the downwinders and the Marshallese and all the other global hibakusha. They were ignored. Urgh Urgh Urgh. I’m trying to not be pessimistic.
I had a ticket for 7:30 but just cancelled/refunded it. Really not up for a 3-hour hard drama tonight. The only thing I was looking forward to was the boysenberry choc top.
It was good, honestly. Was definitely long though, and not exactly lighthearted.
Great to know from the expert that it is good. Now I am extra looking forward to it. I’ll be watching both on Monday.
