A biopic of the famous Hollywood screenwriter Dalton Trumbo. Trumbo entered Hollywood as a screenwriter in the 1930s and contributed classic works such as "Roman Holiday", "Exodus", "Spartacus", and "Johnny Goes to War". Behind the honor, Trumbo's career was actually very bumpy. He was persecuted by the Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) in the late 1940s, was fired by MGM in 1950, and went to jail. After he was released from prison, he was blacklisted by the government and was unable to work for a time. Trumbo borrowed other people's names to write scripts. He won two best screenwriter awards for "Roman Holiday" and "The Brave One", but the scripts were not signed by his name at the time. It was not until 1960 that Trumbo got rid of the persecution and his screenwriting talent was able to see the light of day again.
