We’re doing something a little bit different this week, because why not?!
A few months ago in a Patreon bonus episode we rambled our way into talking about McCarthyism and the Red Scare in the USA during the Cold War as well as the Hollywood Blacklist and since we spoke about early Hollywood a bit a few months ago, we figured we should devote a whole episode to the Hollywood Blacklist. So this is that episode!
Listen in as as talk about the state of the film industry in the 1940s and 50s, communism (or lack thereof), and the infamous Hollywood Blacklist.
