> Except that it isn’t the end. All kinds of worrying things are buried in the story. At one point, in 1942, one of Oppenheimer’s Communist friends, Haakon Chevalier, suggests that Oppenheimer gets in touch with the Soviet Union about the bomb project through a British scientist (and Soviet asset) George Eltenton. Oppenheimer realises immediately that the suggestion is treasonous and refuses it. But he does not report the contact to Groves or anyone else for eight months. When he eventually does, he tries to cover up Chevalier’s role for four months. They covered that in the movie (though they glossed over it).
