Looking at the state of the race post-nominations, the Universal Pictures’ blockbuster could make an even bigger impact.

At once complex, conflicting, stylish and brilliant, Oppenheimer’s life and work is not an immediately obvious choice for an epic blockbuster subject. And yet, Christopher Nolan’s decision to ask his longtime collaborator Murphy to step into the physicist’s shoes resulted in a cinematic experience that would outstrip every superhero movie at the box office last year.
