"Bursts of fire fill the screen throughout Oppenheimer, at times making it seem as if a thousand volcanoes were about to engulf us. But they aren't the only fiery images in Christopher Nolan's magnificent film, as it tells the story of the man who helped create the atomic bomb and wrestled for the rest of his life with the deadly consequences. At times circles race across empty darkness or wiry orange strands of light appear, depicting the fears and the science occupying Oppenheimer's mind. Those artful images are sporadic in a film that never loses its sense of story and drama, but they reveal how boldly imaginative and sure-footed the film is. Oppenheimer is Nolan's most mature work, combining the explosive, commercially-enticing action of The Dark Knight trilogy with the cerebral underpinnings that go back more than 20 years to Memento and run through Inception and Tenet".

I have trained within a few miles of the Trinity bomb site. I'm sure many of you who went to Iraq trained at White Sands New Mexico and we're in the vicinity of Donna Anna and other areas of white sands. It's really weird to see all the machinery from the past at White Sands proving ground.
This picture of me was taken at Doña Ana in the summer of 2004. We had these Barracks that has swamp coolers in them to keep us cool.
I will probably see Oppenheimer this weekend. Last week I went to go see the sounds of freedom. Democrats put the movie down when I think it's a great movie. Pedophiles do exist worldwide not just in Hollywood and some of them have money. The movie did affect me because the kidnapping of the two main kids were supposed to be in tegucigalpa, Honduras. My mom was born in Honduras and applied for the US residency at the US Embassy in Tegucigalpa. She did not ask for help or get smuggled in by the Mexican Mafia and have to owe thousands and she didn't get raped like thousands of women have been while crossing the border
