The Red Scare didn't target subversives-it targeted the biggest prize of all: Hollywood. Between 1945 and 1955, post-war America was strangled by a manufactured Commie panic fueled by self-serving politicians, media, movie moguls, and clergy.
In Hate In The Time Of Old Movies*, acclaimed classic film analyst Bernie Dowling exposes the unjustified vengeance of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in its relentless crusade against the film industry.
Dowling uncovers the shadow history of this era, documenting:
Stripping Away the Myths Featuring over 200 historical images and razor-sharp archival quotes-from blacklisted icons such as Albert Maltz and Lillian Hellman, to committee defenders such as Ayn Rand and Walt Disney-this book reveals a simple truth: they never proved a Communist conspiracy in Hollywood. They didn't have the time; they were too busy inventing one.
Bringing his signature gallows humor and a film-noir perspective to one of America's most shameful political chapters, Dowling exposes a panicked political class that resorted to totalitarian tactics. Ultimately, all they really needed to find subversives was a mirror.
