The Decision to Drop the Bomb (1965)
J. Robert Oppenheimer en andere sleutelfiguren die betrokken waren bij de beslissing om de eerste atoombom te laten vallen, bespreken hun motivaties in deze NBC News-documentaire. Oorspronkelijk geproduceerd en uitgezonden in 1965, twee decennia na de bombardementen op Hiroshima en Nagasaki, werd het in 2023 opnieuw uitgebracht met een epiloog van Michael Beschloss, presidentieel historicus van NBC News.
Regiseurs: Fred Freed, Len Giovannitti.
