A talented screenwriter must understand human nature very well in order to write outstanding scripts. What's more commendable is that he himself can believe in the beautiful things he describes.
This film describes the story of Hollywood genius screenwriter Trombeau after he was blacklisted. For his ideals, he was put in jail, "hunted and killed" by the Non-American Activities Committee, unable to find a job, and sold his house. In such adversity, he actually wrote two Oscar-winning screenplays for the best screenplay: "Roman Holiday" and "The Brave Man" (a pseudonym won the award), as well as the classic Oscar film "Exodus" He also wrote the script, which is truly admirable. Perhaps it is because this genius truly understands human nature that he can motivate himself and create such a brilliant achievement in the face of adversity. From the beginning to the end of the film, this genius screenwriter never gave up on himself. Perhaps it was too wasteful for him to spend time on it. It is better to type more words, ha ha.
The film describes a large number of historical figures, including Ronald Reagan, who was the chairman of the American Actors Guild, to testify that Hollywood was infiltrated by communism, including the then US President Kennedy watching "Spartak" who used Trumbeau's real name as a screenwriter. He "" and praised, and so on, it's really worth seeing.

    The screenwriter of Roman Holiday…

  • Loren 2022-04-21 09:02:25

    This is an absurd and pointless war, no one cares about right or wrong, no one cares about evidence, they just want to know your political stance, human rights are nothing but empty talk, and the blacklist is undoubtedly a dirty piece of Hollywood history , you watched the big stars you once admired come on stage one by one, and they have done disgusting things. As Trumbo said, in this war, there are no villains, no heroes, only victims. As far as the screenwriter is concerned, perhaps the most terrifying thing is not to let him write. At the end, "Spartacus" with his name on it is reflected in his eyes, making people cry with Trumbo. He finally got back his own honor, but no one can repay those long lost. "This is just a worthless golden man, but it is stained with the blood of my friends."
