JFK and the blacklist
#1
Well well well.

"Screenwriter Dalton Trumbo was blacklisted at the time as one of the Hollywood Ten. Kirk Douglas publicly announced that Trumbo was the screenwriter of Spartacus, and President John F. Kennedy crossed picket lines to see the film, helping to end blacklisting.[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP] The author of the novel on which it is based, Howard Fast, was also blacklisted, and originally had to self-publish it."

Oh that terrible man! Maybe he was with some bimbo at the time. Which would be the main story of course.......:Blink:
