Red Letter Days

Descriere

Nineteen-fifties America is bright and full of promise, and Phoebe Adler, a New Yorker brimming with talent and ambition, is forging her way as the rarest of things: a female television writer in Hollywood. But fears of a growing Red Menace cloud the optimism, egged on by the hate-mongering of Senator McCarthy. A blacklist is created to cast out communist sympathisers, smashing careers and ruining lives. When Phoebe finds herself caught in the hysteria's web, she flees to London.
