Miss America: Why I'm excited for Barbenheimer
Two big films are due out on the same day this week: Barbie, the new Greta Gerwig movie about Barbie and Ken travelling from Barbie Land to the real world, and Oppenheimer, the new Christopher Nolan movie about J Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist behind the first nuclear weapons.
Some people are planning to see both films on the same day, in what is being called a "Barbenheimer".
Grace Stanke, 21, is one of those people. She is the current holder of the Miss America title and also a nuclear engineering student in Wisconsin. Newshour's Ben James spoke to Grace and asked her which film she would see first.
