"Director of 'Godzilla Minus One' Reacts to 'Oppenheimer' as a Person of Japanese Ancestry"

Takashi Yamazaki, director of "Godzilla Minus One," responded to "Oppenheimer" at the Oscars, expressing his desire to dedicate a different film to the Japanese victims of the atomic bombings. "Godzilla Minus One" deals with the aftermath of the bombings, while "Oppenheimer" focuses on the American scientist behind the atomic bomb. The director of "Oppenheimer," Christopher Nolan, defended the film's focus on Oppenheimer's experience, stating that it is an interpretation and not a documentary. Yamazaki noted that the simultaneous success of both films was not intentional, and he feels it almost fated that they were released in the same year.
