Trumbo

Bruce Cook

This biography dives into the life of Dalton Trumbo, the central figure in the "Hollywood Ten" who were blacklisted and jailed screenwriters. Trumbo's life was full of fascinating stories - from organizing a bakery strike to being the highest-paid screenwriter in Hollywood. Despite being blacklisted for years, he eventually saw his name back on screen with the movie Exodus. His writing credits include notable films like Spartacus and Papillon, and he also wrote a powerfully pacifist novel. A captivating read for anyone interested in Hollywood history.
