Rebecca Hall initially wore this orange dress as Caroline Cushing in the 2008 film Frost/Nixon. It was then re-worn by Elle Fanning as Niki Trumbo in the final scene of the 2015 film Trumbo.  

Costume designer Daniel Orlandi worked on both films, making it almost certain that these are the same piece. 

Neither Rebecca Hall nor Elle Fanning are strangers to recycled costumes, though they’ve generally been spotted in reuses from period dramas in the past. So it is interesting to see them both in more modern clothing.

The blacklist was a time of evil...no one on either side who survived it came through untouched by evil...Looking back on this time...it will do no good to search for villains or heroes or saints or devils because there were none; there were only victims.

- Dalton Trumbo

Dalton Trumbo was reputedly postwar Hollywood’s highest paid screenwriter and perhaps its most iconic as he was known to write his scripts whilst taking a bath. With such scripts under his belt as 1940’s class conscious Kitty Foyle, for which Ginger Rogers won a Best Actress Oscar, and World War II morale boosters like Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo starring Spencer Tracy, he was rightly seen as one of the best screenwriters in Hollywood. But to keep this prestigious, well-paying job, as Dalton was warned by MGM’s studio mogul Louis B. Mayer, he best avoid politics. Trumbo didn’t listen.

After the WWII alliance between Washington and Moscow collapsed and the Cold War began, Hollywood leftists were subpoenaed to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee about alleged film propaganda.

Among witnesses HUAC summoned was Trumbo. To continue making movies all he had to do was to confess to the grand inquisitors (which included Richard Nixon) that he’d joined the Party and to name Communists, leftists and union supporters in the movie colony. But like other members of the Hollywood Ten, in 1947 a defiant Trumbo refused to cooperate, was fined for contempt of Congress, and sentenced to prison.

Despite their beliefs in the First Amendment, the “Hollywood Ten” were convicted for contempt of congress. They appealed to the Supreme Court, however the Supreme Court chose to keep their convictions in place. This led to Trumbo having to serve almost a year in prison. Trumbo, along with the rest of the Hollywood Ten, were also blacklisted by the film industry and kicked out of the Screen Writers Guild – despite the fact that one of the Hollywood Ten, John Howard Lawson, was the first President of the SWG and one of its founders. This meant that they would not be able to obtain any work in Hollywood.

However, the blacklist did not stop Dalton Trumbo, who wrote under “fronts” or assumed names. After the failure of the Hollywood Ten’s appeals, Trumbo and his family moved to Mexico. It was here that Trumbo wrote some of his best work, often chain-smoking in the bathtub, with a parrot that Kirk Douglas had given him for company. One film which he wrote during this time was Roman Holiday, which won an Oscar for his screenplay. But on this occasion, Ian McLellen Hunter, a fellow screenwriter, had acted as Trumbo’s “front” and therefore accepted the award as if the screenplay was Hunter’s own. It was not until 1993 that Trumbo was posthumously awarded this Oscar, 16 years after his death. Audrey Hepburn also won an Oscar for her performance in the film.

Trumbo may have been a maverick with his wrong headed political beliefs but he wasn’t wrong about freedom of speech or anti-censorship. His professional life was a struggle against the dangers of censorship and demagogaery. If he were a live today no doubt he would have picked up the Voltairean banner of defending free speech rather than crushing and canceling dissenting voices.

I hear your new script's in trouble. Maybe you should hire Dalton. He used to be pretty good, and price-wise, he'd be bargain basement.

Watching TRUMBO

About as exciting as you'd expect a biopic about a writer to be.

One of those movies on my watchlist that's been there forever but never got around to watching until now.

Feels like a TV movie at times, but with movie stars.

Film after film: Trumbo (dir. Jay Roach, 2015)

Continuing my agenda of catching up with the mainstream US cinema of the mid-2010s, I also forced myself to endure the film that the authors of my favorite podcasts seem to wholeheartedly despise. It's more dull than unbearable, though I understand the sentiment about its overperformance in the 2015-2016 awards circuit. Cranston's Oscar nomination, following several precursors, is baffling, Mirren's over-the-top Hedda Hopper is humorless, Lane's suffering wife could've been great, but is underwritten and mostly blends into the background, while Louis CK cheerfully proves he's not good at acting. However, there's a bunch of other men who get small but fine roles: Stuhlbarg (before he hams it up in Your Honor's first season), Goodman, and my otherwise big-time favorites Root and Bakkedahl.
