In this reprise episode of Ojai Talk of the Town, we sit down with writer and historian Mark Lewis to explore one of the most unsettling chapters in American cultural history — the Hollywood Blacklist. Mark's feature in the Fall 2015 issue of the Ojai Quarterly dove deep into the fear-fueled politics of the late 1940s and '50s, when actors, writers, and directors were exiled from the entertainment industry for alleged Communist ties.Many of those key figures lived in Ojai - names like Paul Jerrico, Michael Wilson and Dalton Trumbo, where they found a haven and an understanding community.Through richly detailed storytelling and incisive commentary, Mark reveals how the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) hearings not only destroyed careers but also reshaped Hollywood and American public life. We discuss the rise of informants, the toll on personal lives, and the eerie parallels between that Red Scare era and the social media-fueled cancel culture and political polarization of today.This conversation isn't just a history lesson — it's a warning. As we reflect on the past, we're forced to ask: how do we protect freedom of expression without falling prey to fear and conformity? We did not talk about Vaclav Smil's latest work, impending screw worm disasters or the rise of our new digital overlords.Don't miss this hauntingly timely discussion on art, politics, and the enduring fight for the soul of American storytelling.

Hey everybody! This week we are continuing our End Of Season Series, where we are discussing films by directors that make only one film with Dalton Trumbo's Johnny Got His Gun. Listen as we breakdown this nightmarish look at the aftermath of war and the damage it can leave behind. Enjoy!

Nuestro experto en cine Javier Ocaña nos informa sobre los Premios Goya, con un repaso a los nominados en las diferentes categorías. También un vistazo a los últimos estrenos, ''La acompañante'' una película sobre inteligencia artificial, relaciones líquidas y robots de compañía. Y ''La red fantasma'' un filme sobre la guerra civil en Siria basada en hechos reales y en la que el protagonista es brutalmente torturado en la prisión de Saidnaya. Y cómo no, una crítica bajo demanda, esta vez de la película ''Johnny cogió su fusil'' del director Dalton Trumbo. 

In November 1947, ten Hollywood writers and directors were cited for contempt of court for their refusal to testify before HUAC. Criminal charges were issued against the group that would become known as “the Hollywood Ten,” and the first systematic Hollywood blacklist had begun. Of the ten, six were Jewish - John Howard Lawson, Herbert Biberman, Alvah Bessie, Albert Maltz, Samuel Ornitz, and Lester Cole - as were many of the studio executives who voted to blacklist them. Narrated by Rebecca Naomi Jones and featuring Thomas Doherty, author of Show Trial: Hollywood, HUAC, and the Birth of the Blacklist. Image: Anticommunist group protests the release of "Exodus" in 1960, written by Hollywood Ten "unfriendly" Dalton Trumbo. From the Abraham Shoenfeld Papers at AJHS, P-884.

Grab your sandals and sword and get philosophical with Jason, Tony, and our guest Paul Klein, as we unpack the wonders of Stanley Kubrick's Spartacus (1960). The film was adapted from Howard Fast's novel of the same title by Dalton Trumbo, and it is considered a major step in the end of the notorious Hollywood blacklist. The film is also read as an allegory for civil rights stuggles, the HUAC hearings, and "Third World" struggles. All of this and more is discussed in the episode.  Books and articles mentioned: Who Paid the Piper: The CIA and the Cultural Cold War by Frances Stonor Saunders The Final Victim of the Blacklist: John Howard Lawson, Dean of the Hollywood Ten by Gerald Horne Aesthetic Theory by Theodor Adorno “Fascinating Fascism” by Susan Sontag As always, please suscribe to the podcast, and don't forget to leave a review! And follow Jason on Twitter (X) at @JasonAChristian, Anthony at @tonyjballas, and Paul at @ptklein, and the same handles at BlueSky.

La figura del caballo y el jinete se recorta contra el cielo, las crines del equino mecidas por el viento de la sierra y la sonrisa de Kirk Douglas, Jack Burns, el bravo cowboy de Los valientes andan solos. El director David Miller tuvo varios desencuentros con Douglas a lo largo del rodaje, y aún así éste era el papel favorito de Kirk. El resultado es potente, acompañamos las andanzas de este caballero que se niega a comprarse un coche y dejar su montura, a Jack le ha alcanzado la modernidad, se echa sobre un peñasco a contemplar el cielo que ahora surcan aviones, y su huida se ve interrumpida por alambradas y carreteras de asfalto. Atractivos hay para dar y regalar en este film, las miradas y abrazos entre una jovencita Gena Rowlands y su amigo errante, la complicidad entre el pistolero y su yegua semisalvaje, la pelea con el manco excombatiente de Okinawa, un diálogo que seguro el guionista Dalton Trumbo inspiró en su encuentro con John Wayne, un camionero sudoroso que transporta cientos de retretes, o el sheriff Walter Matthau, acompañado por ayudante incapaz, persigue con desgana al fugitivo y escupe su sed a las rocas de la montaña, parece desear que Burns escape más que atraparlo, nada que ver con las mala ostia del sheriff de Acorralado (First Blood), interpretado por Brian Dennehy, una película con muchas conexiones con ésta, un argumento similar al western crepuscular de Miller, y con el mismo compositor, Jerry Goldsmith. La fotografía de Philip Lathrop refleja en blanco y negro la fisicidad de los rostros, el sudor del sheriff, los rasgos curtidos de Burns, o la belleza serena de una mujer sola, encantadora, la esposa del amigo preso, Gena Rowlands, el efímero remanso de paz del inadaptado. Esta noche escuchamos los últimos relinchos de Whisky bajo la lluvia, y conseguimos ver de cerca a Burns… Salvador Limón, Raúl Gallego y Zacarías Cotán

Dana and Tom with Christine Duncan and Klarissa (I've Seen That) revisit Roman Holiday (1953): directed by William Wyler, written by Dalton Trumbo, Ian McClellan Hunter, and John Dighton, score by Georges Auric and Victor Young, starring Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, and Eddie Albert.Plot Summary: In the pantheon of classic cinematic escapades, "Roman Holiday" stands as a luminous testament to the transformative power of love and the allure of adventure. Picture this: a weary princess, suffocated by the pomp and circumstance of royal life, seeks solace in the vibrant heart of Rome. Audrey Hepburn, in her iconic role as Princess Ann, embodies youthful exuberance and longing. Her quest for normalcy leads her into the unsuspecting arms of Gregory Peck's Joe Bradley, a hardened journalist looking for his next big scoop.This isn't just a love story—it's a celebration of serendipity. The narrative waltzes through the cobblestone streets of Rome, capturing the city's soul through enchanting vignettes: a Vespa ride, a mouthwatering gelato, and a dance by the Tiber. The chemistry between Hepburn and Peck is palpable with their performances grounding the whimsical tale in emotional truth.But "Roman Holiday" is more than escapist fantasy; it's a poignant commentary on the dichotomy between duty and desire, a meditation on the fleeting nature of freedom. As Ann returns to her royal obligations, we're left with a bittersweet reminder of the price of responsibility. In an era where reality often feels burdensome, this film invites us to lose ourselves in its magic, if only for a moment.Guests:Christine Duncan - Wife of Dana and Mother of Tom14x guest: Pretty Woman, Sleepless in Seattle, When Harry Met Sally, There's Something About Mary, My Fair Lady, Pillow Talk, The Odd Couple, Bringing Up Baby, A Few Good Men - Revisit, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Top Gun, Dial M for Murder, Anatomy of a Murder, and

Sword and Sandals Month concludes with Stanley Kubrick's blockbuster 1960 collaboration with Kirk Douglas, Spartacus! Ben and Patrick break down the vaugely-historical epic to decide once and for all: sword OR sandals?! Directed by Stanley Kubrick, adapted by Dalton Trumbo, and starring Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier, Charles Laughton, Peter Ustinov, Jean Simmons, and Tony Curtis.

Let's review some more 70's movies now!
Today we start with 
 #1(Bloody Town Hall 1979) This documentary filmed in 1971 was a labor of love to edit and get it released by 79. This is a bloody mess that at least I found super interesting. BTH captures an important time, by way of an extremely odd event in NYC where Feminists take on Douchey Norman Mailer, a whole lotta chaos, and someone filmed it. NYC Gay Liberation Front members can be seen here for brief cameo. Other writers here of note are Germaine Greer, Diana Trilling, Jill Johnston, and Betty Friedman, to name a few.
#2 is (Johnny got his gun 1971). This book was read by anyone in high school who had a Vet for an English teacher. Author and director here was famous blacklisted writer Dalton Trumbo, they made a bio pic about him with the meth making chemistry teacher from Breaking Bad. This films good and trippy, also extremely heavy and sad, also also METALLICA (listen to the song One for the plot). We love Donald Sutherland and he had just passed at the time of recording so we are slowly goin through the few DS films that we haven't already reviewed or showcased. Timothy Bottoms, Kathy Fields, and massive character actor Peter Brocco are here, along with the guy who became a tree in Mr. Sycamore. 
#3 (Badlands 1973) Ok this ones arty. The Dad of the guy from Platoon, and Carrie from Carrie star here. Carrie is groomed by the Apocalypse now guy to be with him and watch him play macho militia survivalist dude, after killing her father. 
#4 (Last American Hero 1973)Before he owned a video arcade in Tron, the guy from King Kong who loves magic was a moonshiner turned Southern hick nascar racer. Gary Busey helps him here, as well as Geraldine Fitzgerald, Valerie Perrrine, and Ned Beatty.
#5 (Cassanova 1976) Donald Sutherland has Mr. Burns in the Simpson's Dracula parody hair here. Director here is the one and only Federico Fellini, and if you wanna read something funny, go to IMDB and check out his biography, unless someone changes it, it is one one the weirdest mini bio's I have ever read. Film looks stunning, but is it good? Well, our hot takes are ready. 
#6 (north Dallas forty 1979) This film experienced some real big problems taking on Big Sports. It's foolish to think that it wouldn't be the same as taking on the mob or the government. This is based on a book from someone who was in it Peter Gent. I was bullied by jocks and organized sports fans as far back as I can remember. I seem to be missing the gene to enjoy pretending I play a role sporting events. I digress, because I could watch a movie about sports or a show about sports if it's good, and this is good. Nick Nolte, and Charles Durning are here, as well as the director of First Blood, where John Jay Rambo was once in charge of million dollar equipment and now he can't even get a job parking cars. Finally today we review another made for TV movie gem called
 #7(The 5.20 an hour dream 1980) Alice from the hit TV show Alice is here and very good as Ellen a rad Mom who needs her car repaired and takes on patriarchy in the factory. Can these butts allow her to do a job she can do even though she is not a man? 
As always thanks for listening and please give us the stars and a review, it can help peeps find the pod.

1960 - Uno de los 10 de Hollywood, novelista, guionista y director perseguido por el Macarthismo mientras buscaban elementos comunistas en la industria del cine, autor de hitos del cine como Espartaco, Dalton Trumbo, escribe indignado al Cedars of Lebanon Hospital. Un espacio de Bárbara Espejo.

“How can you tell what's a dream or what's real when you can't even tell when you're awake or when you're asleep?”Dalton Trumbo's Controversial Anti-War ClassicIn 1971, blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo adapted his own 1939 anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun for the big screen. The film marked Trumbo's directorial debut and only feature film as director. Set during World War I, the story follows a young American soldier who becomes a quadruple amputee after being hit by an artillery shell. Trumbo's powerful critique of war and its devastating effects on soldiers resonated strongly in the Vietnam War era. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue the One-and-Done series with a conversation about Johnny Got His Gun.Locked-In Horror: A Haunting Tale of War's CasualtiesWe dive deep into the film's harrowing portrayal of Joe Bonham, played by Timothy Bottoms, as he struggles with his horrific injuries and loss of autonomy. The movie's exploration of disability rights and the dehumanization of wounded veterans sparks a thoughtful discussion. We examine how Trumbo's adaptation differs from his novel, particularly in its use of flashbacks and dream sequences to break up the claustrophobic hospital scenes. While we appreciate the film's powerful anti-war message, we debate the effectiveness of some of its more surreal elements.Other points of discussion include:• Timothy Bottoms' compelling performance as Joe Bonham• The impact of Jason Robards as Joe's father• Donald Sutherland's portrayal of Christ in dream sequences• The film's bleak ending and its emotional impact• Comparisons to other "locked-in" films like The Diving Bell and the Butterfly• Trumbo's transition from novelist to filmmakerA Thought-Provoking Journey Through War's AftermathJohnny Got His Gun remains a powerful and disturbing examination of war's human cost. While we found some aspects of the film more effective than others, we agree that it's an important work that continues to resonate decades after its release. Its unflinching look at the physical and psychological toll of combat makes it a challenging but worthwhile viewing experience. We have a great time talking about it, so check it out then tune in.

Roman Holiday is a 1953 American romantic comedy film directed and produced by William Wyler. It stars Audrey Hepburn as a princess out to see Rome on her own and Gregory Peck as a reporter. Hepburn won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance; the film also won the Academy Award for Best Story and the Academy Award for Best Costume Design, Black-and-White.

Theres No Country for Young Men on this week's episode, as Dalton Trumbo (in his only directorial effort) and Peter Bogdonovich (in his breakout film) bring us a couple of sad stories of the bleakness of youth. Hosted by Brad Garoon & Jake Ziegler

Para hablar de este clásico con mayúsculas nos juntamos Frederic Torres de Valencia, Javier Jiménez de Sevilla y Paco Dolz de Valencia, con Unai Aizpurua encargándose de la parte técnica para que este programa salga de una forma más fluida a las ondas. Estamos ante una novela que escribió Howard Fast en la cárcel sobre Espartaco, un esclavo que se rebeló contra Roma. El guión fue el primero que firmó con su nombre Dalton Trumbo, uno de los 10 de Hollywood. El director es Stanley Kubrick cuando aún no es el cineasta de culto y que demostró su enorme valía y el productor y el hombre detrás de que el proyecto viese la luz es Kirk Douglas que se enfrentó al Comité de Actividades Antiamericanas para sacarla adelante. Hablaremos de todos ellos y ¡cómo no! de Alex North y su maravillosa banda sonora y de Saul Basss y su contrinución al proyecto. Vamos una película que sesenta años después de su estreno sigue moviéndonos como solo hacen las obras maestras. Espero que disfruteis escuchando el programa tanto como nosotros haciéndolo.

Join hosts Jason, Anthony, and Tim as they discuss John Berry's He Ran All the Way, a 1951 crime drama in the film noir and film gris traditions. The film stars John Garfield, who was shortly thereafter blacklisted and died of a heart attack at age 39. The screenplay is written by Hugo Butler and Dalton Trumbo, both blacklisted, as was the director, John Berry.  We also discuss Berry's short documentary The Hollywood Ten (1950), a fundarising agitprop documentary about the ten Hollywood personnel jailed in federal prison for contempt of congress in 1050. Here are their names:  Alvah Bessie, screenwriter Herbert Biberman, screenwriter and director Lester Cole, screenwriter Edward Dmytryk, director Ring Lardner Jr., screenwriter John Howard Lawson, screenwriter Albert Maltz, screenwriter Samuel Ornitz, screenwriter Adrian Scott, producer and screenwriter Dalton Trumbo, screenwriter For more inormation on the 1945 "Black Friday" Hollywood strike that Tony references in the episode, check out this article he co-wrote with Gerald Horne!  We hope you enjoy!

Although the blacklist era ends, the scars remain. Dalton Trumbo discovers a backdoor to Hollywood screenwriting work. Families of Hollywood workers reckon with the fallout in generations to come. After decades away, Charlie Chaplin makes a triumphant return to America. Ellen Geer recalls the effects of the blacklist on her father Will Geer, who refused to expose his friends. Oona Chaplin reflects on the lasting effects of anti-communist fervour on her family and the wider culture.Archive: Oscars ceremony highlights: Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the 29th Academy Awards 1957, and the 44th Academy Awards 1972 The Dude goes West, directed by Kurt Neumann, King Brothers Productions, 1948 Dalton Trumbo interviewed on television program Night Beat, 19 September 1957, Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research The Waltons, Lorimar Productions 1972

It just keeps getting deadlier and deadlier as we delve deeper into THE LEFT HAND ENDEAVOR! It's classic film noir five days a week all March and we got some strange lovers here who go together like guns and ammunition. Bart is a gun pervert. He's known this from a young age. He got sent to reform school over his gun perversion. Annie is also a gun pervert which has our perv protagonist absolutely chubbing while he watches her William Tell routine. Makes sense these crack shots would fall in love, except he's trying to be a nice boy but Annie wants more and she wants to take it all using her favorite tool. There's only one way this can end but they sure had a lot of fun along the way. We're discussing the beautifully directed Joseph H. Lewis film based on an ok script ghost written by Dalton Trumbo. It's “GUN CRAZY” from 1950 starring Peggy Cummins & John Dall. This movie has its flaws but it's a lot of fun. A perfect example of a movie we might pick over another we might have technically scored higher but it's a very well shot noir. A straight shooting wild ride of its time. Pretty easy to find online.

The House Unamerican Activities Committee begins its hearings into alleged communist subversion in the movie business. The hearings cement a phrase in American history: “Are you now or have you ever been a member of the communist party?” Friendly witnesses, including actors Gary Cooper & Robert Taylor, are called to the stand, along with movie mogul Jack Warner of Warner Brothers. Walt Disney uses the opportunity to call out alleged communists among members of the striking animators' union. Dalton Trumbo and his allies challenge the legitimacy of HUAC and its hearings. Archive: Mission to Moscow, directed by Michael Curtiz for Warner Bros., 1943 Recordings of House Unamerican Activities Committee by Paramount Newsreels

The House Unamerican Activities Committee starts calling witnesses. Their hearings with Tinseltown celebrities create a sensation and put Hollywood's alleged communists in the spotlight. Dalton Trumbo is among those summoned to Washington for hearings. Oona Chaplin explains why her grandfather Charlie was not called to appear, despite his reputation as a leftist. Actress Katharine Hepburn takes a public stand against HUAC, mocking its hearings at a Los Angeles rally. Archive used: Testimony of J.

Rumours of communist infiltration in the movie business had circulated for years. Showbiz insider Billy Wilkerson is the first to publicly name alleged Tinseltown “communists”, including Dalton Trumbo, in his paper, the Hollywood Reporter. William R. Wilkerson III speaks about his father's friendship with billionaire producer Howard Hughes, a rabid anti-communist. He describes how his mostly apolitical father's anti-communist stance was shaped by a visit to the Soviet Union. Wilkerson III recalls how his father's close connections with stars like Jimmy Cagney gave him political influence in Hollywood. Oona Chaplin learns how future president Ronald Reagan operated as an FBI informant. Archive Ronald Reagan's 'evil empire' speech, 1983, The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library

FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover and allies like Ayn Rand were convinced that Hollywood was infested with communists. Now they started scouring the movies themselves for evidence of propaganda. Anti-communist figures in the movie business, including John Wayne and Gary Cooper, create the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals to counter groups like the Writers Guild. Even American classics like It's a Wonderful Life came under FBI scrutiny. Studios began to feel the pressure – even changing seemingly innocuous scripts to avoid political heat.

Dalton Trumbo's career as a screenwriter blossoms just as FBI director J. Edgar Hoover makes Hollywood his focus for rooting out communism. Trumbo becomes active in the Screen Writers Guild, a harbour for radical politics. Charlie Chaplin makes influential friends on the political left. With his first talking film, The Great Dictator, Chaplin draws critical praise and unwanted attention with a rousing speech. Shifting alliances between Soviets and Nazis force an awkward political reckoning in the US. Host Oona Chaplin explores the FBI's covert operations which targeted alleged communists. We learn how Hollywood became the battleground for the soul of America.

This week we have a look at the 1942 film I MARRIED A WITCH. This is Episode #418! I Married a Witch is a 1942 American supernatural romantic comedy film, directed by René Clair, and starring Veronica Lake as a witch whose plan for revenge goes comically awry, with Fredric March as her foil. The film also features Robert Benchley, Susan Hayward and Cecil Kellaway. The screenplay by Robert Pirosh and Marc Connelly and uncredited other writers, including Dalton Trumbo, is based on the 1941 novel The Passionate Witch by Thorne Smith, who died before he could finish it; it was completed by Norman H. Matson.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4268760/advertisement

We are taking out an entire month to look briefly at the prolific body of work of Arch Oboler. The 1930s saw Oboler in a position of prominence in radio with his own series "Arch Oboler's Plays." Today we hear the most dramatic of these, with an riveting production of Dalton Trumbo's "Johnny Got His Gun," starring James Cagney as the blind and deaf soldier with no arms, and no legs.  Visit our website: https://goodolddaysofradio.com/ Subscribe to our Facebook Group for news, discussions, and the latest podcast: https://www.facebook.com/groups/881779245938297 If you don't do Facebook, we're also on Gab: https://gab.com/OldRadio  Our theme music is "Why Am I So Romantic?" from Animal Crackers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KHJKAKS/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_MK8MVCY4DVBAM8ZK39WD

Mark Lewis talks about his research and epic OQ story about the House Un-American Affairs Committee and the defiant screenwriters who put their livelihoods at risk. Many of the Hollywood 19 lived in Ojai, including Michael Wilson, Paul Jarrico and Dalton Trumbo. From the vault of our podcast conversation in 2021.

We discuss Jay Roach's Trumbo (2015), a pretty ok biopic about blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo. We also talk about a few much shittier movies about the blacklist, including The Front (1976), Guilty by Suspicion (1991), and Good Night and Good Luck (2005).

“Johnny Got His Gun” is an anti-war novel written in 1938 by American novelist Dalton Trumbo and published in September 1939. There have been radio, stage and screen adaptations of the novel, including Trumbo's own 1971 film, and Metallica recorded a song – titled One – based on the book. In March of 1940, the book was serialized in the Daily Worker, which was published by the Communist Party USA - to which Trumbo belonged. For people on the political left, including the American Communist Party, the book became a rallying point in their opposition to involvement in World War II. But when Hitler invaded the USSR in 1941, Trumbo and his publishers decided to suspend reprinting the book until the end of the war – so long as the US stayed allied with the Soviet Union.

We get back to covering actual Worst Picture Winners with 1998's An Alan Smithee Film: Burn, Hollywood, Burn, winner at the 19th Annual Golden Raspberry Awards! You can tell how excited we were to talk about this one by how long we talk about whether Batman's a fascist in the opening. We break down what did and didn't work about the movie, marvel at how anyone could possible cast Harvey Weinstein in an on-screen role, dig into what went wrong with this film's bizarre soundtrack, lambast Joe Esterhaz's lazy writing while defending his Wookiee-like appearance, and try to grasp how a movie like this can be so bad that the director took an Alan Smithee credit himself unironically. We come up with film aliases for ourselves, Jack recounts a bathroom crime, and Joe struggles and fails to remember the title of Comedy Central's single-season adult animated series Kid Notorious about producer Robert Evans. Get comfy, enjoy the episode, and please let us know if you know anything about Michael Ovitz.

The anti-communist Red Scare of the 1940s and 1950s spared no corner of the country or the culture. The FBI combed the Green Mountains looking for communists, and the University of Vermont ousted a suspected faculty member. In Hollywood, 10 screenwriters and directors refused to cooperate with the House Un-American Activities Committee, or HUAC, which led to a highly publicized hunt for supposed communist sympathizers and “subversives” throughout the entertainment industry.The Hollywood 10, as they came to be known, used the HUAC hearings in 1947 to condemn the committee. Among them was Dalton Trumbo, one of Hollywood's highest paid writers. His credits included “Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo” (1944). As result of their defiance and principled stands, Trumbo and other members of the Hollywood 10 were convicted of contempt of Congress, fined, imprisoned and blacklisted from working in the film industry. Trumbo was unable to make a living under his own name for more than a decade, though he continued to write scripts under pseudonyms and use other writers as a front. He won an Oscar for “The Brave One” (1956), which he wrote under the name Robert Rich.In 1959, former President Harry Truman denounced HUAC as the “most un-American thing in the country today.” The Hollywood blacklist ended in 1960, when Trumbo was publicly credited with writing two films, “Spartacus” and “Exodus.” In 1975, the Academy Awards officially recognized Trumbo as the writer of “The Brave One.”“Trumbo: Red White & Blacklisted” is a two-person play featuring Trumbo's letters that was written in 2003 by Trumbo's son Christopher. The play is being performed in Vermont beginning Feb. 11 in Plainfield, Waterbury Center and White River Junction. It is directed by Monica Callan, narrated by Nick Charyk, and actor and former State Rep. Donny Osman plays Trumbo. Rick Winston, author of “Red Scare in the Green Mountains: Vermont in the McCarthy Era 1946-1960,” is an adviser to the play.Trumbo served 11 months in prison for contempt of Congress. “As far as I was concerned, it was a completely just verdict. I had full contempt for that Congress,” he wrote.

Today on Vermont Viewpoint, Kevin Ellis hosts! During the first half of the show he'll talk with Shannon Jackson, a Solar Advisor from Green Mountain Solar. Then, during the second half of the show, he'll speak with Rick Winston, Monica Callen, and Nick Charyk. They'll be discussing the Dalton Trumbo play in Plainfield.

‘I'm Spartacus!' In the field of epic film making, the 1960 historical drama ‘Spartacus', is legendary. Directed by Stanley Kibrick, adapted from the Howard Fast novel by Red Scare blacklisted screenwriter, Dalton Trumbo, and starring Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier, Peter Ustinov and Jean Simmons; it is a classic. But how much of the plot has emerged from the true story of a Thracian gladiator and slave who escaped his Roman captors and led an unsuccessful but impressive rebellion against their oppressors? How much of the film's message was formed by the personalities involved in its creation, and the context in which it was made. In her own words, Dr Fiona Radford devoted years of her life to the man with the most memorable chin cleft in the world - Kirk Douglas, specifically as Spartacus. Her thesis traced the production history of this film, examining in particular the effect that the turbulent process had on the portrayal of female characters. Having taught at Macquarie University, ANU and the University of Sydney, she currently teaches history at secondary school level, and her conversation with Tristan in this episode is an eye-opener to 1950s film making as well as the legend of Spartacus.For more Ancients content, subscribe to our Ancients newsletter here.

Classics don't get more classic than Roman Holiday. The 1953 romcom, written by Dalton Trumbo, introduced Audrey Hepburn to American audiences and paired her with debonair leading man Gregory Peck. It launched her career and further solidified his status as one of America's favorite leading men. Does their star power still endure almost 70 years later?

What are the real stories behind the most misunderstood ideas in politics? Ian Dunt and Dorian Lynskey explore the histories of concepts you thought you knew. In this first episode: McCarthyism. Was it really a crusade against communists or just a grifter's opportunity that got out of hand? How did a witch-hunt morph into a way to denounce any critic, no matter who? And did Joe McCarthy really write the rulebook for Trumpism?

Dense, but readable and very thorough account of McCarthy's life. Tye is perhaps a little too fair to his subject, but he paints a full portrait. High Noon: The Hollywood Blacklist and the Making of an American Classic by Glenn Frankel. Beautiful biography of the film, in which the subject matter and the background oppression go hand-in-hand. Film criticism as political science. A Conspiracy So Immense: The World of Joe McCarthy by David A Oshinsky. The classic McCarthy biography, full of anecdotes and ideas. Fun fact: this is one of the books that inspired REM's ‘Exhuming McCarthy'. From Dorian: Reds by Ted Morgan. An exhaustive account of various Red Scares and what McCarthyism meant beyond McCarthy himself. Particularly good on the importance of the Venona intercepts. Trumbo by Bruce Cook. Terrifically vivid biography of Dalton Trumbo with much to say about the Hollywood blacklist in general. Much better than the movie. The Crucible by Arthur Miller. The essential contemporary allegory. –––––––– “In a way, McCarthyism is actually the origin story of Donald Trump.” – Ian Dunt "If you say it loudly and aggressively enough, it becomes the truth.” – Peter Fraser “The victims were the people who are always victims in moments of national paranoia: gay people, Jews, free thinkers and liberals.” – Ian Dunt “McCarthy hacked the media… It was as if a restaurant served poisoned food and it was up to the diner to refuse it.” – Dorian Lynskey –––––––– Written and presented by Dorian Lynskey and Ian Dunt.
