Since Oppenheimer was such a success, can we please get a high-budget Feynman film already? The guy was far more interesting and cooler and just generally more of a badass than Oppenheimer. And he fucked a lot more than Oppenheimer.

All we've gotten is Infinity which... it was okay, but come on. The guy got bored at Los Alamos and decided to learn how to safecrack. In the middle of the Manhattan Project. Because he was fucking bored.

Not to mention his quest to reach Tannu Tuva. Or all the crazy things he talks about in "Surely you're joking, Mr Feynman". I feel like a movie about him should capture his playful approach to learning and teaching, and actually go into the subjects he studied. He was good at explaining things simply and the movie could do the same. It should awaken a desire to explore the mysteries of the universe. An antidote to all the anti-intellectualism we suffer from today.
