COMMUNITY REVIEWS

ok submitted by manz on July 8, 2016, 10:55am I wanted to like this more than I did.
Great acting though.

Interesting Story submitted by Beth Manuel on August 22, 2016, 11:27am Without knowing much about what to expect from this film, I thought Cranston did a great job in his performance as Dalton Trumbo. I wasn't familiar with the man, but I learned a lot and look forward to seeing some of the films he wrote now that I know the back story.

Still Relevant submitted by caburr47 on July 1, 2020, 8:32pm Bryan Cranston and Diane Lane are great. The black list and Trumbo's fight for his beliefs and right to feed his family is an interesting story and piece in this era of the United States.
