Description

Paul Buhle and David Wagner have put together the definitive guide to the films, directors, stars, writers, designers, producers and anyone else who was blacklisted by Joseph McCarthy during those notorious years in Hollywood. Covering such films as Roman Holiday and Bridge on the River Kwai and linking them up with the men and women involved, Buhle and Wagner have created the ultimate film lover's guide to the darkest period in Hollywood's history. In over 2000 linked entries, the authors provide every piece of information a film lover could want.


Reviews

'...a guide to all films associated with blacklisted individuals...' - Anthony J. Adam, Library Journal
'The little-known relationship of films like these to the blacklist - which is essentially the point of this book - made Blacklisted well worth the time it took to read. In addition, the brief reviews are often highly valuable, providing insightful political comments on many of these films' - Cercles
