Still from `Oppenheimer`
The inclusion of sex scenes in Christopher Nolan's latest film, 'Oppenheimer,' has sparked mixed reactions amongst viewers, with some expressing anger, particularly over the presence of the sacred Bhagavad Gita in one of the scenes.
Even before its premiere, 'Oppenheimer' was the site of controversy due to its explicit nudity and sexuality and earned an R-rating -- the first for a Christopher Nolan film in 20 years. This film marks Nolan's first venture into incorporating a sex scene into his cinematic universe, a decision he made to accurately depict the life of J. Robert Oppenheimer, portrayed by Cillian Murphy, and his passionate relationship with Jean Tatlock, played by Florence Pugh. However, some viewers found the scenes offensive.
