Don't forget Barbie - also opening in the US on the 21st...
We had the American Prometheous author (most of the source for the Oppie movie) lecture the other week - It got pretty deep. Nolan's a complete geek on the whole project and he spent many weeks in our archives at Los Alamos. As they're doing pre-release publicity I see him pretty frequently coming and going with various news orgs. His joint is quite locked tight - I've opened up the Oppenheimer house for his publicity visits but once I get the door cracked I'm clearly sent on my way to go do something else.
I think it's kind of funny as LA (this one in New Mexico) is so blase w.r.t. hollywood that Nolan, Murphy, Damon et al. could be at the local brewpub (200 yds from the Oppie house) and beyond a "cool, hollywood folk" comment nobody would bother them or even really care.
Still it'll be fun to see our story and historical society properties feature in such a big thing. FYI, and it's not paywalled, today's Guardian has a pretty long article on Murphy. It's interesting...
