the current, modern scientist may not by default be morally responsible, but the title is implying the moral responsibility that *should* be attached to the job description. science and moral responsibility are not two mutually exclusive concepts.
This title is a contradiction in terms. Science itself has demolished moral responsibility, and has replaced it with a genetic and biological determinism. So the scientist cannot be morally responsible.
I just watched this again. It's beautiful. For all people involved, I'm the voice behind this documentary (aka narrator). "Shut up, the world's round" <3
We actually just used imovie. My friend photoshopped some of the pics-- you can't do that in imovie. Note (it took us a while to figure this out): when you want to pan across a pic (like we do for the graph) or pan and zoom, you go to the end of the clip, and drag the picture in the main screen.
Hey kittycarousel, thanks for the extra info on Oppenheimer. I didn't know that. But, you also have to understand our topic was Hans Bethe, so we spent most of our time researching him. If the documentary was about WWII we would have included more about the other scientists.

Outstanding! I wish it were longer. Hans Bethe should be know by more people.

Oppenheimer left the bomb making busness shortly after Hirshimo and was one of it';s first critics.

This is great! My parents are physicists and we all love your movie! Thank you for posting.
I'm trying to learn how to make documentary. What is the software you used to make this movie?
