This 'Oppenheimer' Supporting Performance Deserves Recognition
The Big Picture Christopher Nolan’s latest feature, the historical drama Oppenheimer, did not open as big as the gargantuan box office smash that is Barbie, but the film has been performing extraordinarily well. The film has drawn respectable box office numbers and rave reviews across the world, mainly due to the "Barbenheimer" mania that’s sweeping across social media.

While Krumholtz is always a memorable talent, with identifiable features, he looks nearly unrecognizable in Oppenheimer. Something did seem oddly familiar about Rabi at first, and after realizing that it is Krumholtz in the role, it's a gobsmacking realization.
Nolan and Krumholtz depict Rabi’s unconditional friendship with Oppenheimer through a recurring action of Rabi sharing food with Oppenheimer, to make sure his friend receives some nutrition. It's a simple pure act of kindness first shown not long after they meet while traveling together, and it's repeated later when Rabi is brought in as a key witness at a political hearing meant to disgrace and embarrass Oppenheimer.
