Great book. Learned a little about the blacklist period of time during the 1950s, republican Joe McCarthy, Hedda Hopper (the rush limbaugh of her day), and the politics of making a movie. Also learned a lot about Kirk Douglas, 95 years young. What a guy! Took courage. Learned something about Spartacus too, the Roman slave, who led a slave revolt. I'm sure I've seen the movie years ago. Want to see it again now. Forward by George Clooney.
