@gregory_b@dvdnetflix@thedavidcrosby@leonardmaltin WHILE the movie was filming the writer, Carl Foreman, had to testify in front of the House Committee on Un-American Activities about his membership in the Communist Party. He refused to name names, was considered a hostile witness, was black listed, and fled the United States!
@gregory_b@dvdnetflix@thedavidcrosby@leonardmaltin …ALSO have to mention that a young Lloyd Bridges (father of The Dude) was tremendous in this, went toe-to-toe with Gary Cooper. Bridges got blacklisted in Hollywood around this time too!
@gregory_b 💕Peak old school loop. That stretch on Adams just west of Wabash too. Need some combo of a yellow sign Vienna Beef hot dog spot, a pawn shop, gyro joint, or a nail salon on the block to qualify.
