Watched this several times and generally enjoy it, but as I’ve argued before, it’s seriously flawed. Oppenheimer should have had his security clearance revoked because he was co-opting his position to make naive arms control arguments. The hawks were right as history showed. Finally, as I’ve argued before, the Strauss confirmation hearings were a terrible way to bring the drama to a climax. Nobody gaf about Robert Strauss being Secretary of Commerce.

The drama didn't climax with the Strauss hearings. The climax of the movie was when Robb was interrogating Oppenheimer. Strauss's self-satisfied rant against him was simply juxtaposed on top of it.
