There are some parts that are very intense and it showcases the fact that those with the strongest opinions get crucified where its politically or in life in general. You have to carry the weight and live with the burden of your actions. You can sense the emotion and remorse that Oppenheimer felts for creating an this thing that would ultimately change the world.
