Oppenheimer: Christopher Nolan, Nihilism, and the Human Condition
Manage episode 372037702 series 2790065
Does Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer tell a different story about the human condition and nihilism than the story he's told in films like The Dark Knight and Interstellar?
Yes.
In this episode, we'll explore how Nolan's films grapple with ideas from Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Camus, Augustine, and even New Age humanists and discuss why Oppenheimer is his most Augustinian film.
