And that Elia Kazan thing is huge and there's a "catharsis" (I don't think that's the right word) around all that....kind of like Arthur Miller's Crucible had a thing going on too. Kazan snitched, if I remember right, and Miller condemned the House with the Crucible, but we'll talk later.

Excellent stuff...welcome back to the thread. I would be more interested in 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6. (I dont ID as a lesbian, I'm male-transgendered) so i don't have quite knowledge or level of interest on those aspects of film as much as I do on these other topics.

catch ya later

You're right about the Kazan and Miller connection. I actually use the Crucible in that class. I also use the HUAC hearings transcripts, which I haven't looked at in a while. So it's been a couple of years ago that I taught that particular course. The last one I taught was Hitchcock. I am a huge fan of his work. I understand that you might not be interested in all the topics and that's fine. I also identify as trans FTM. Talk to you later.
