Trumbo: Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been...


It is the year 1947, and Dalton Trumbo is the Hollywood's; and the world's highest paid screenwriter. However, he is part of the communist circuit within Hollywood, and becomes a victim of the propaganda run by the capitalists dominating in the US, against the communists.

And, he is jailed and blacklisted, along with several other prominent Hollywood professionals, after being betrayed by one of their comrades.

He starts writing trash for some shady publication just for money. And, soon helps others get involved too. Before, you know he's writing stuff under a pseudonym.

But, will he be able to make a comeback, recover his lost prestige, and have the last laugh?


Rating: Green - a very well made movie about Dalton Trumbo, his family, his friends, and his work. Just superb! Must watch!

PS: As is usual with real-life based movies, specially period movies, this movie may also have errors in places, some unintentional, and some intentional as the makers might have taken creative freedom.
