I saw this film once 46 years ago and it left an indelible impression on me.
It brings out a strange and beautiful romanticism from the Capek novel. It delves into the angst that Szilard, Fermi and Oppenheimer might have felt regarding the development of the A-Bomb.
It takes you on quite a journey.
