Trumbo

Directed by Jay Roach

The author of scripts for such films as Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo and Our Vines Have Tender Grapes, Dalton Trumbo was among the highest-paid scenarists of his time. He was also among the most unjustly ostracized, one of numerous film artists who saw their careers screech to a halt after being interrogated by the House Un-American Activities Committee about their supposed communist ties. Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) stars as the famous screenwriter and Hollywood blacklist victim in a fascinating portrait of one of the most emblematic figures of Hollywood’s Golden Age.
