Introduction -- The radical community in Hollywood -- Life on the blacklist : production and politics in postwar Europe -- The blacklist and "runaway" production -- The blacklist, exile, and the transatlantic noir -- Cosmopolitan visions, Cold War fears -- Blacklisted directors, art cinema, and the caprices of film criticism -- The legacy of the blacklist. |
| Summary |
Rebecca Prime documents the untold story of the American directors, screenwriters, and actors who exiled themselves to Europe as a result of the Hollywood blacklist. During the 1950s and 1960s, these Hollywood émigrés directed, wrote, or starred in almost one hundred European productions. The book offers a compelling argument for the significance of these blacklisted expats to our understanding of postwar American and European cinema and Cold War relations. |
