      Audience Member Interesting and enlightening film. I learned things I didn't know about the bad old days of blacklisting actors. Hard to believe that went on in my lifetime. Well done and I'm surprised I had never heard of Marsha. Thank you, Roger Memos for bringing her story to light. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Amazing documentary about an amazing woman.

Seeing how the USA, and the people most affected by HUAC's practices, shifted, changed for the better, and survived. Rated: 8/10 Jul 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
