Kelsi and Trey explore the creative vision of Christopher Nolan with a critical deep dive review of his newest film 'Oppenheimer'.

Nolan's movies are undoubtedly sonic and visual achievements that effectively overwhelm the senses. Though, many of his scripts have political and moral contradictions with underdeveloped characters and themes. The filmmaker is obsessed with paradoxes and has become one in the public eye -- we investigate our conflicting feelings about Nolan's work and how those issues reveal themselves in his newest film 'Oppenheimer.'
