We can deny our heritage and our history, but we cannot escape responsibility for the result. Murrow, played by David Strathairn, that proved to be the inspiration for his telling of one of the most important and political upheavals in American history. It was one of those great moments where you really had to be brave."

Hollywood Honors Elia Kazan: Filmmaker and Informer
. His knowledge of cinema history can be gauged by an ignorant reference to blacklisted filmmaker Abraham Polonsky as "a Hollywood writer who would never have been heard of had he not received a House subcommittee subpoena long ago." Before his career was cut short by the witch-hunt, Polonsky was involved in the production of two critical works of the late 1940s, Body and Soul (as screenwriter and perhaps more) and Force of Evil (as director), both starring John Garfield. As Ceplair and Englund write in their history of political life in the film industry from 1930 to 1960, the new hearings followed a series of events that strengthened the committee's position: "the conviction of Alger Hiss, the fall of China to the Communists, the first successful atomic explosion by the Soviet Union, the arrest of atomic spy Klaus Fuchs in England, the dawning of Joseph McCarthy's special brand of anti-communism, the passage of the McCarran Internal Security Act, ...
