Blacklisted!: Hollywood, the cold war, and the first amendment

The story of 19 men, all from the film industry who are summoned to appear before the House of Representatives Committee on Un-American Activities.

When the first 10 of these men refuse to give the committee the simple answers it wants, they are cited for contempt of Congress and blacklisted.
