In song, film, and live performances by stars such as Billy Crystal, Kevin Spacey, and John Lithgow, the audience relived a time some fifty years before, when, as the story has always been told, courageous writers and actors stood firm against a witch-hunt and blacklist that wrecked lives and destroyed careers. In the fall of 1997 some of the biggest names in show business filled the Motion Picture Academy theater in Beverly Hills for "Hollywood Remembers the Blacklist," a lavish production worthy of an Oscar telecast. ![]() ![]()
