Synopsis

A revelatory essay film, Red Hollywood examines the pictures made by the victims of the Hollywood Blacklist and offers a radically different perspective on a key period in the history of American cinema.

Our take

Thom Andersen (Los Angeles Plays Itself) alongside Noël Burch turn their exacting gaze onto the turbulent period of McCarthyism and its crusade against some of Hollywood’s finest artisans. An essential reckoning with American motion picture history and cinema’s capacity as a political art.
