THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991)

"Dr. Lecter, without in any way...impugning what you've told Senator Martin, would you advise me to go on with your idea about-" "Impugning-I love it. I wouldn't advise you at all. You tried to fool me, Clarice. Do you think I'm playing with these people?" "I think you were telling me the truth."

Congress’s anti-communism target fell hard on Hollywood, and those in the industry who were suspected of communism at all were blacklisted from all jobs, because studio’s didn’t want to face backlash from Congress

Salt of the Earth was made nearly 100% with blacklisted crew members from Hollywood, and had such difficulty finding actors that they hired local citizens and miners from the actual strike the plot is based on. There were only 5 trained actors involved, and one of them (Rosaura Revueltas, the woman in the gif) was deported to Mexico before they finished filming on accusations of communism, with no proof and no substance. The filming was plagued with police harassment and threats (according to my professor they were shot at more than once), and the local union hall was burned down.

two sides of a coin yadda yadda.
