ROBERT: Oh-ppenheimer, Oppenheimer. Whatever way you say it, they know I'm Jewish. (Strauss chuckles) I'm president of Temple Emanu-El in Manhattan. "Straws" is just the Southern pronunciation. - Ah. - Anyway, welcome to the Institute. I think you could be very happy here. Yes, well, you'll love the commute. The position comes with that house for you and your wife and your, is it two children? Yes, two. I'm a great admirer of your work. And you're a physicist by training, Mr. Strauss? I'm sorry, uh, common room 4:00 tea. No, I'm not trained in physics or anything else. - I'm a self-made man. - Ah. - I can relate to that. - Really? Yes, my father was one. And this would be your office.

Niels, meet J. Robert Oppenheimer. BOHR: What's the "J" stand for? Nothing, apparently. You were at my lecture. You asked the only good question. BLACKETT: No one's denying his insight. It's his laboratory work that leaves a little to be desired. (swallows) I heard you give the same lecture... At Harvard, yes, and you asked the same question. Why ask again? Hadn't liked your answer.

Oppenheimer still divides America. The committee is gonna want to know where you stood. Senator Thurmond asked me to say not to feel that you're on trial. Oh, funny, I didn't till you just said that. - Really, Mr. Strauss... - It's Admiral. Um, Admiral Strauss. This is a formality. President Eisenhower has asked you to be in his cabinet. Senate really has no choice but to confirm you. And if they bring up Oppenheimer? When they bring up Oppenheimer, you answer honestly. No senator can deny you did your duty. It'll be uncomfortable. (chuckles awkwardly) Who'd want to justify their whole life?

But never embraced the quantum world it revealed. "God doesn't play dice." Precisely. You never thought of studying physics formally, Mr. Strauss? Well, I had offers, but I chose to sell shoes. Lewis Strauss was once a lowly shoe salesman.

Mr. Strauss, there are things in my past you ought to be aware of. Well, as chairman of the AEC, I have access to your security file. I've read it. - You're not worried? - No. Why would I be worried after everything you've done for your country? Well, times change, Mr. Strauss. Well, the purpose of this institute is to provide a haven for independent minds.
