For the first episode of NukeTalk's new season, Nuclear Movie Club, we are joined by Noah Oppenheim, screenwriter of A House of Dynamite—a new Netflix film by Kathryn Bigelow—and former president of NBC News. 

The Nuclear Movie Club will cover 10 defining movies in the nuclear film canon that represent a breadth of plot, theme, tone, and cultural impact. What do these films get right, and wrong, about depictions of nuclear threat? And what are the lasting impacts nuclear films can have on culture, policy, and public opinion? We will explore these questions, themes, and lots of fun facts on this season of NukeTalk.
