In the mid-1950's, the House Un-American Activities Committee began investigating the communist influence in the entertainment industry. This searing docudrama—compiled from actual transcripts of the hearings—reveals how decent people were persuaded to name names, and the steep price paid by those who refused. Written by Eric Bentley. A BBC and KCRW co-production.
