Sobre IBD

Newly revised and rewritten to include extensive archival research that delves into the complex process of feature-film story development from the studio era of the 1930s to the New Hollywood era of the 1970s, this work is a fascinating study of scripts written or cowritten by two-time Oscar winner Dalton Trumbo. His filmography includes such classics as The Brave One, Gun Crazy, A Guy Named Joe, Roman Holiday, Papillon, Spartacus, and Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo. He also directed Johnny Got His Gun, an adaptation of his iconic antiwar novel, and served ten months in prison after defying anticommunist persecution.By exploring Trumbo’s lifelong engagement with themes including personal honor, this rigorous analysis demonstrates how his progressive sociopolitical attitude manifested across decades of memorable screen entertainment.
