The new documentary "Trumbo" that's touring the arthouses is a look at the Blacklist and McCarthyism of the 1950s that's brave and daring--a cutting edge triumph of dissent and free speech! ...As long as you're willing to discount the dozen-plus movies on the topic that Hollywood has made since the mid-1960s.

Building on an essay by Mark Steyn (also the source of this video's title), our latest edition of Silicon Graffiti explores both blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo, and that near-annual Hollywood perennial: the blacklist movie. As Steyn writes, these days, "Hollywood prefers to make 'controversial' films about controversies that are settled, rousing itself to fight battles long won."
