Los Alamos has become the subject of intense media coverage due to the upcoming release of Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. The movie, directed by Christopher Nolan, aims to shed light on the life and work of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the brilliant scientist behind the creation of the atomic bomb during World War II. While the film is expected to be a blockbuster, it has also sparked controversy, stories about how and where it was made, and advice to people who may travel here to see what it is all about.
A quick search today returned stories from big-time outlets like the Associated Press, Washington Post, Travel & Leisure, and Smithsonian Magazine. But it also is being written about in alternative and smaller outlets like Vulture, Curly Tales, and Los Alamos’ own Prime Passages.
