Richard Brody (August 7, 2023). ""Oppenheimer" Is Ultimately a History Channel Movie with Fancy Editing". The New Yorker. Archived from the original on August 4, 2023. Retrieved August 7, 2023. simple, fact-heavy article [...] turns out to offer more complexity and more enticing detail than Nolan's script does. And it has more to say about the movie's essential themes—the ironies and perils that arise when science, ambition, and political power mix—than the movie itself does.
An editor has repeatedly tried to add a list of the Oscars won by the Oppenhemier film and actors in that film. My view is that this information belongs in the article about the film. This article already notes that there is a film about Oppenheimer and that is enough. This article is about the man, not the film. Also see WP:NOTNEWS.
I should add that the film and actors in it won numerous other awards, so why highlight the Academy Awards? Should we be implying that Oppenheimer is a more important historical figure because a film about him won an award? Should we be listing awards won by any books and films about Oppenheimer?

Sounds reasonable to me. Some historical figures have become famous due to a film, but I don't think that Oppenheimer has. The article on the film should cover it. Hawkeye7(discuss) 01:08, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The paragraph gives the awards for a BBC production and the awards and nominations for an American documentary PBS production. So public tv awards are okay to show but commercial movie awards are not? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.191.79.40 (talk) 01:24, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Oppenheimer movie Oscars are in the article. I see no harm with having a small separate section on Oppenheimer in popular culture. In that context there is no problem with noting the awards they have received. Figureofnine (talk • contribs) 12:38, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I played around with some possible restructuring, but the material on dramatizations and so on is too well integrated into the "Legacy" section, so the best thing to do is to leave as is. If it's not broke, don't fix it. Figureofnine (talk • contribs) 20:56, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
