This author was blacklisted in Hollywood for 10 years as a suspected Communist. She had indeed been a "casual member" of the Party (in her possibly self-serving words) about a decade before she refused to answer questions from McCarthy's committee.

There are people who eat earth and eat all the people on it like in the Bible with the locusts. Then there are people who stand around and watch them eat it. Sometimes I think it ain't right to stand and watch them do it.

The Children's Hour

One of my favorite films - Directed by William Wyler from a screenplay based on the 1934 play by Lillian Hellman., starring Audrey Hepburn, Shirley MacLaine, and James Garner

Took in Lillian Hellman’s A Watch on the Rhine at the #DonmarWarehouse this weekend. Patricia Hodge knocked my socks off as Fanny, but the whole cast was terrific. Special mention to the theatre staff and the cast who stopped and restarted the show smoothly when an audience member fell ill. #theatre #london #LillianHellman

I mean…I was already super-excited to this at the Donmar, but it’s great to see Watch on the Rhine getting a glowing review straight out of the gate. #theatre #donmarwarehouse #watchontherhine #LillianHellman

Watch on the Rhine review – Lillian Hellman’s call to arms is a must-see
