Summary: "In the remote desert of New Mexico, 'The Manhattan Project' is materializing-the World War II effort to build the atomic bomb. Oscar-winner Paul Newman (Hud, Nobody's Fool) stars as General Leslie Groves, the military man in charge of a massive project that will produce two weapons: 'Fat Man' and 'Little Boy.' Dwight Schultz (The Temp, Star Trek: First Contact) is J. Robert Oppenheimer, the brilliant scientist attempting to bring the startling mission to fruition. And Bonnie Bedelia, John Cusack, Laura Dern and Natasha Richardson co-star in this "stunning...profoundly moving" film (Michael Medved, Sneak Previews) that re-creates one of history's most compelling chapters...one that resulted in the mushroom-shaped specter that changed the world forever."--Container.
