Hedda Hopper


In one of the last scenes while Hopper is watching JFK commenting on Spartacus, she has a look on her face that is puzzling. Did she regret her bashing Trumbo, or what?

reply

Hopper knew that JFK's endorsement of the movie was the end of the blacklist.

reply

Hedda was a hateful woman for supporting the blacklist. I wouldn't be surprised if she refused to see Spartacus and Hawaii in protest.

reply

Hedda Hopper was a patriot who loved this country and didn't want to see the entertainment industry infiltrated by communists. Revisionist narratives may try to say otherwise but that is the truth.

reply

I applaud those 99% in Hollywood who celebrated her death in 1966.

reply

Who cares?

reply

"Infiltrated by communists"
And I guess you agree, you don't have to do anything wrong anymore. Just have the wrong thoughts according to an Agenda.

reply

Very confusing response.

Yeah, well now that it it own almost entirely by corporations and defense contractors the output is the worst it has ever been.

Trumbo may have been a communist but he didn't try to convert anyone to his politics. I think he really was more of a democratic socialist, like Bernie Sanders. Trumbo was concerned about racism for instance. He was accepting of others but kept his beliefs about a better world through support and sharing to himself.

You're a dumbass slimone as everyone knows from your horrible reviews. I.don't think you have an inkling what socialism really is.

reply

Yes, that is what they meant by communists, and the people who were against them are the same people who now call labor unions communists, and voting communists.

What that means if you think about it is that socialism is really democracy, but they cannot show they are against democracy so they have to call it communism. Voting, and democracy in our government they don't want. Voting and democracy at work where corporations are tyrannies that tends towards slavery and zero wages ... all socialism.

The power elite want no regulation and nothing to be above them in power as they drive the planet towards destruction, because they think they can always escape to somewhere where it will be OK. They don't care anything about the rest of us or the environment - only their power and control.
