Below are links to slides, video and audio for the public lecture I gave on the movie Angels and Demons and related topics in high energy physics. This was part of a broader outreach effort by the high energy physics community -- about 50 such talks were given in multiple countries to coincide with the release of the film.
If you watch the video or listen to the audio, be sure to check out the last part as there were a lot of good questions from the audience.
