Katherine Oppenheimer Vissering

Jean Tatlock played by Florence Pugh, excellent, but I have some issues.

And then Kitty Oppenheimer played by Emily Blunt before she got the full buccal fat removal that was really distracting in Disclosure Day, though I found her performance great nonetheless.

But in the movie, women are primarily defined only by their relationship to Oppenheimer as either wives or love interests, but primarily by the suffering their proximity to him brings.

And again, on the one hand, I think that's in keeping with Nolan's examination of not just – oppenheimer's psyche but like a kind of male creative psyche which tends to perceive of women as these one-dimensional disposable afterthoughts so it's like maybe not necessarily that oppenheimer has little interest in the women in his life like jean tatlock like kitty um or that like nolan thinks they're invaluable it's that like Oppenheimer's life, his passion, and especially his naivete caused these women to suffer and force them into marginal positions.

It was not meant to be this like barometer for feminist value of anything.

It's like not like.

But like, you know, I think there was way more to both Kitty Oppenheimer and Gene Tatlock than like their suffering.

And I wish this movie kind of gave us a bit more than that.
