Dave Morales sits down with Bryan Cranston and director Jay Roach to talk about their biopic on screenwriter Dalton Trumbo and whether blacklisting still exists in Hollywood.

Film Synopsis:

In 1947, Dalton Trumbo (Bryan Cranston) was Hollywood’s top screenwriter until he and other artists were jailed and blacklisted for their political beliefs. Trumbo recounts how he won two Academy Awards and exposed the absurdity and injustice of the blacklist, which entangled everyone from gossip columnist Hedda Hopper to John Wayne, Kirk Douglas and Otto Preminger.
