Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist whose brilliance and drive led to the invention of the atomic bomb, a breakthrough that changed the world and threatened to end it. Surrounding the movie’s showstopper explosion, a re-creation of the mushroom-cloud moment in 1945, is about three hours of drama centered almost entirely on Murphy’s performance. ⁠ ⁠ His challenge: reinventing the archetype of the tortured genius. As Oppenheimer, he wrestles with quantum mechanics and the ethical implications of the Manhattan Project, gritting his way through psychological tumult.⁠ ⁠ “To me the science, the physics, is sort of background to his humanity and the incredible moral dilemmas he found himself in throughout his life,” Murphy tells @wsjmag. “What happens to the human psyche when it’s under pressure? I find that really interesting.”⁠ ⁠ In nuclear terms, “Oppenheimer” represents critical mass for Murphy’s career. After three decades in theater, film and television, the 47-year-old actor from Cork, Ireland, has his first leading role in a Hollywood tentpole release.⁠ ⁠ The film marks the culmination of Murphy’s close relationship with director Christopher Nolan, who offered the actor “Oppenheimer” over a telephone call. “I’ve waited a long time to be able to pick up the phone to Cillian and say, ‘This is the one where you take center stage,’” the filmmaker said. ⁠ ⁠ Read more at the link in our bio. ⁠ ⁠ 📷: @chantalaanderson for @wsjmag」7月22日 1時05分
