I cant speak to the how completely faithful the script was to history, however I thought the script itself was good and it was an enjoyable movie with good performances. Bryan cranston would make a perfect freddy Kruger if they where to reboot it again this man has my vote!
Excellent The points it made were valid. The war veteran Commies vs John Wayne scenes were good.
I have to say that Trumbo deserved many writing awards in his time. I can see how these voters made an honest mistake.
