As I sat watching the Hollywood blockbuster Oppenheimer all I could think of was Edward Said. In his famous essay “Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Victims,” Said argued that there was no way to understand the ideology of Zionism----the idea of Jewish racial supremacy---without examining the experience of those who suffered from it, namely Palestinians like himself.
Today I learned on this thread that because the movie is a biography that means glaring omissions and focusing on
while removing the scientific contributions and actual relevance of women to the Manhattan Project is just what biographies do, actually. 
They did that one scene where a woman scientist told off her male colleages for concern trolling her fertility. And that was it. That’s all you really needed.
According to most Nolan apologists, that actually counts and that really is all that is necessary and if anything is generous on St. BWAAAM’s part.
