What ’s stopping him at the moment is that he just does n’t consider he ’s found the “ exceptional idea ” for it yet . But he ’s done a little number of it : Oppenheimer has abrief sequenceof horror after the Manhattan Project ’s first atomic bomb launch . That moment “ [ fit ] the dependent matter , ” he excuse , similar to how the celluloid ’s second and third acts essentially function as a respective heist moving picture and courtroom drama . He pick out those two genres because they ’re mainstream enough , and “ people mouth is inherently tense and interesting to an audience . That ’s the fun thing with genre — you get to play with a lot of dissimilar area whereas in unlike type of photographic film you really would n’t be allowed to . ”
