A War in Hollywood (2009)
The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) caused a great impression on the lives of most of the American artists of that era, so many movies were made in Hollywood about it. The final defeat of the Spanish Republic left an open wound in the hearts of those who sympathized with its cause. The eventful life of screenwriter Alvah Bessie (1904-1985), one of the Hollywood Ten, serves to analyze this sadness, the tragedy of Spain and its consequences. propaganda, movie business, spanish civil war (1936-39), mccarthy era, franco regime (francoism), war propaganda, 1940s, spanish second republic (1931-39), 1950s, 1960s, 1930s, old hollywood, anti-fascism, hollywood history, abraham lincoln brigade, the hollywood ten
