"I adore ‘Interstellar' just because I find it so emotional. I remember seeing it in the cinema when I had little kids. It just had a big impact on me.

"It broke my heart. I love watching his films when I'm not in them because you don't have to freak out about the size of your ears, or whatever,” the actor said.

Asked to pick another Nolan film as the double bill with "Oppenheimer", Murphy said he would again choose "Interstellar" and if someone prefers a shorter movie, then the 2017 war drama "Dunkirk".

"You could go ‘Interstellar,' which is very… explores similar scientific, physic themes. Or you could watch ‘Dunkirk,' which is also set in World War II,” he said.

“‘Dunkirk' is shorter, so that might be a good match ‘cause it's like an hour-and-a-half, and then you can go into (‘Oppenheimer').”
