The expected best picture winner at this year’s Oscars ceremony is Oppenheimer, a film about the making of the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government program that designed the first nuclear weapon during World War II. That program was highly secret—and quite expensive. Washington spent $2.2 billion on it in total, not adjusted for inflation. But while the film delves into the physics involved, it largely avoids questions of economics.
