So just finished watching "The Front". Again.

For the young'uns here, it's a movie about the Hollywood Blacklist of the early 50's. Go watch it.
Those of you who have seen it, long for anyone he's been bullying to step up like this:


Full stop. Drop mike. Walk away.

He was too young to be involved. The writers director and many of the actors in this film including Zero Mostel were black listed. A really good film.
