Is that an actual quote from him??

After reading Treason, does anyone have a list of who he named when he was before the committee?

[lainie]

One was Clifford Odets, playwright, radical.. who named names himself later, according to sad accounts on Slate of "Kazan's victims."

They don't name the rest of the names in this article; they just say, "and several actors since forgotten, in part, perhaps, because they were blacklisted."

Yes, it is.

I'm watching "On the Waterfront" as I type.

Terry Malloy just said...

"I was rattin' on myself all these years..."

Top on the list of unwritten screenplays and never-to-be-produced movies is one I've entitled "Best of Friends," about the death of the friendship of Arthur Miller and Elia Kazan. Compare and Contrast (Back to Skoo) "On the Waterfront" and the Miller play "A View from the Bridge." Both shared the favors of MM, by the by...a story all by itself.

#17...I simply 'Googled' Elia Kazan, and there's a tribute to him by a writer, called Postage Paid...and tells the fleshed out facts of what happened in 1952, including why he named them and who they were.

[Guenevere]

Besides Odets, it was Lee and Paula Strasberg, Lillian Hellman, John Garfield, and one I can't remember.

According to Kazan's memoir, Arthur Miller was his personal friend to whom he trusted for advice...

...he seemed to think Miller would support any decision Kazan made, but afterwards Miller turned on him.

In fact, didn't Miller pen The Crucible...
...ostensibly the story of the Salem Witch Trials..... with the HUAC in mind?
