To mark the 75th anniversary of the notorious Hollywood Blacklist, when many careers (actors, screenwriters, directors and more) were sidelined by suspicion of being a Communist or sympathizer during the Red Scare of the late 1940s and ’50s, TCM offers an impressionistic documentary short that imagines a dialogue between High Noon’s blacklisted screenwriter Carl Foreman (voiced by Edward Norton) and On the Waterfront’s director Elia Kazan (voiced by John Turturro), who was widely criticized for providing testimony and naming names to the House Committee on Un-American Activities in 1952. The 14-minute film is followed by screenings of 1952’s High Noon (8:30/7:30c) and 1954’s On the Waterfront (10:30/9:30c).
