Presented by King's Film Society.
In 1947, Dalton Trumbo (Bryan Cranston) was Hollywood’s top screenwriter until he and other artists were jailed and blacklisted for their political beliefs. TRUMBO (directed by Jay Roach) recounts how Dalton used words and wit to win two Academy Awards and expose the absurdity and injustice of the blacklist, which entangled everyone from gossip columnist Hedda Hopper (Helen Mirren) to John Wayne, Kirk Douglas and Otto Preminger. The film also stars Diane Lane, John Goodman, Louis C.K., Elle Fanning, and Michael Stuhlbarg. USA, 124 mins., Rated R.
Nominated for Best Performance by An Actor (Brian Cranston): Academy Awards, Golden Globes, BAFTA, Screen Actor's Guild
"The great Bryan Cranston sinks his teeth into the title role and chews the scenery with such gusto I half-expected him to spit out a chunk of period-piece furniture before we were through. There's a lot of ham and cheese in the performance, but it's great fun to watch." —Chicago-Sun Times
"Bryan Cranston finally translates his critical acclaim for "Breaking Bad" into an Oscar-caliber performance in darkly comic Trumbo, playing an eloquent, witty screenwriter who bucked the Hollywood blacklist and triumphed." —New York Post
