Herbert Biberman struggles as a Hollywood writer and director blacklisted as one of The Hollywood Ten in the 1950s.
I'd like to make a note of this documentary. The user jlm-6 who wrote about the movie earlier obviously has no vision for the enrichment of history and only for his own glory. This documentary was based solely for the purpose of history and documentation. It shows what it took to film "Salt of the Earth" and how this government infringed on the lives of American citizens, by using the same tactics that are still in use today. (Bribery, Deceit, Fear and most of all taking away our Constitutional Rights). So if this person cannot see the bigger picture, then it's probably a good thing he did not post his name here, otherwise he too would be blacklisted!.
I am a survivor of one of the people this movie "Salt of the Earth" was made about. I cannot say the documentary of the making of it is quality Hollywood, but I can say I completely appreciate seeing the points of history leading up to the making of the movie and all that was involved.
If I may suggest, see this documentary and then see the movie. You'll appreciate what kind of struggles people of non-Hollywood, non-white and white collar backgrounds had to endure to survive.
