Recently, Zhao Wei's incident reminded me of this film. The Cold War in the United States in the 1950s had just begun. As a communist, Trumbo was once considered a spy and traitor of the CPSU in Hollywood. As a well-known film screenwriter, his name has been on Hollywood's blacklist for ten years, including the US Congress, Hollywood and the masses. The reason for his indignation is that we are familiar with using movies to poison and subvert the United States. For this, Trumbo was treated coldly, isolated, splashed with dirty water, insulted, and even went to jail. However, Trumbo was not knocked down. After a short prison, he began to write scripts anonymously and trade on the black market. Because of his talent for drama, his works were snatched by film dealers, so a large number of movies were made in Hollywood, and his name still couldn't appear on the screen. Even the Oscars for his works were taken by others. One of his works is "Roman Holiday" as we know it. With the spread of his works, the author behind it has gradually become an open secret in Hollywood. Next, famous directors and actors took the initiative to visit, and finally helped him return to the screen and board the Oscar stage. In this decade, some of the people on the Hollywood blacklist have since faded out of the movie circle, some have lost their lives because of this, and some are still creating underground just like Trumbo. This decade has been called the darkest decade in Hollywood. However, in the end everyone understood that whether he was a spy of the CPSU or not was irrelevant, and he would not subvert the United States through film creation. Communism is his belief, and what he believes in is free in the United States. He used his works to make Americans laugh again and again, and how ridiculous the anger of Americans was before.
The following is a conversation between him and his daughter during the ban on "Dad, are you a Communist?" "I am" "Is it against law?" "It is not" "The lady with the big hat said you were a dangerous radical. Are you?" "Radical, maybe. Dangerous. Only to men who fling cokes. I love our country and it's a good government. But anything good can be better" "Am I a communist?" "Well, why don 't we give you the official test?" "Mum makes your favorite lunch. And at school you see someone with no lunch at all. What do you do?" "Share" "Share? well, you don't tell them to just go get a job?” “No.” “You offer them a loan at six percent” “Dad” “ah, then you just ignore them” “No” “Well well, you little commie”
