Like Christopher Nolan’s ‘Oppenheimer,’ Marshall Brickman’s film chronicled the making of a nuclear weapon — but this one was built from green goo by a teenager.
To consult on the film, Bran Ferren, an MIT prodigy and former head of Walt Disney Imagineering, was brought on. “Evidently, my homemade bomb was a working design,” recalls Collet, now 55, of Ferren’s creation. Brickman also gave his cast “a bunch of books that talked about the development of the atomic bomb.”
The film climaxes with a scene in which the bomb’s clock is activated, and Lithgow and Collet try to stop it as a dozen military officials watch in terror. Says Collet: “The tension that you feel in that scene? We were all sort of actually experiencing that.” When six wires are cut simultaneously to defuse the weapon, the countdown clock stops at 07:16:45 — the date of the Trinity test. Released June 13, 1986 — just six weeks after the Chernobyl disaster —This story first appeared in the July 14 issue of The Hollywood Reporter magazine.
