How I detest Hollywood with its lies, historical misrepresentations, and doctrinaire Leftism.
"Screenwriter Dalton Trumbo had it all — wealth, fame, Oscars. But he refused to name names for the House Un-American Activities Committee during the Cold War, and was branded a national threat. Now, with Jay Roach directing, the man whose name was banned on a big screen for years has his own movie."

The truth about this late but not lamented pos can be found here:
http://www.conservapedia.com/Dalton_TrumboThe way this movie will probably portray this disgusting little Stalinist is probably best captured in this quote from the film's main character, Bryan Cranston:
"Still, the filmmakers behind Trumbo believe their hero's story will resonate. "The debate on the NSA, wiretapping, how much we invade a person's privacy — that continues," says Cranston, an outspoken liberal in his own right. "Trumbo didn't commit a crime, yet he went to prison. So he's emblematic of oppressed people throughout our history, whether it's African-Americans or Latinos or communists. In America, there was a time when fear-mongering was tremendously effective. We are continuing to relive it."
