The Hollywood’s Blacklist

Hollywood blacklists were developed under complex social, political and economic circumstances. The Hollywood black list is the method used by the federal government to refuse to hire many experts in the entertainment industry, such as script writers, actors, producers, directors, musicians, animators. These experts were "blacklisted" on suspicion of political relations with the Communist Party. For the Soviet Union's Eastern Europe, the Berlin blockade, the Chinese civil war, the high-level tank confession, and many other events occurring all over the world, the blacklist is the fear of Communist Reconnaissance It comes from.

Hollywood is a constantly controversial topic and has been condemned by the American House Committee (HUAC) on non-American activities as a shelter for communists. "Hollywood Blacklist" was founded in 1947 and the committee began convincing Hollywood entertainment experts to testify in front of the committee and suspected that their work is a communism inspiration. As media began to widely report on litigation, several writers, producers and directors were called "Hollywood 10". All ten people served in prison for up to one year in the 1950s, and the work found somewhere in the media was "on blacklist". The blacklist finally increased to 150 names and lasted until the 1960s.

Another uneasy symptom of Red Panic is the Hollywood black list designed by the US House of Representatives (a name that itself is a paradox). Hollywood Blacklist (or Hollywood 10) consists of ten American script writers and directors who are the current members of the Communist Party or former members. In October 1947, in front of activists outside the US, everyone refused cooperation, they were charged with trials and charged for a crime (voting against conviction was overwhelmed by 34 people from 176 people). Everyone was sentenced to 6 years from imprisonment for 1 year, everyone was blacklisted, and I have not worked in Hollywood for many years. Some people use pseudonyms or post their works using friends (called "forefront"). Top 10 lists include Herbert Beaverman, Albert Marz, Leister Call, Dalton Tranbo, John Howard Lawson, Alba Bessie, Samuel Ornitz, Ring Ladner Jr, Edward, Dmitrik, Adrian Scott is. Red panic changed all this, but not good

The movie "Front" in which Woody Allen appeared in 1976 dealt with the Hollywood black list in the McCarthy era. This film is a blacklist by producer and director Martin Litt, actor Zero Monaster, Herschel Bernadi, Michael Murphy, John Randolph, Lloyd Goff, producer and director of Joshua Shelley, Walter Bernstein .
