''Fat Man and Little Boy'' is a 1989 [[HistoricalFiction historical drama]] film directed by Roland Joffe.
In the early days of American involvement in UsefulNotes/WorldWarTwo, General Leslie Groves (Creator/PaulNewman), a U.S. Army engineer, finishes his assignment to build the Pentagon and hopes to go fight in the Pacific theater against the Japanese. Instead, he is given a project he doesn't want: spearheading the development of [[UsefulNotes/NuclearWeapons the atomic bomb]]. To wrangle the scientists, Groves hires UsefulNotes/RobertOppenheimer (Creator/DwightSchultz), a brilliant physicist and administrator who leans [[RedScare more than a little to the left]]. Groves and Oppenheimer set up a laboratory outside the remote town of Los Alamos, New Mexico and recruit physicists and engineers from all over the U.S. to work on their secret project. One such recruit is Michael Merriman (Creator/JohnCusack), an idealistic young physics student who narrates much of the film through unsent letters to his father.

The cheery tunes from the 'Toy Flutes' piece contrasted the otherwise grim and serious atmosphere of the test, up until it was abruptly cut off by the detonation of the Trinity device.
