| He didn't name names, but he DID turn against the party and even went as far as publishing an article in American Legion Magazine. Something about how he was "suckered by the Reds", if I recall the title correctly. By doing this, he turned his back on Trumbo and the rest of their friends, who were currently waging a war against the committee for their rights. | |

| It is one thing to change one's mind about one's political affiliation and probably be pressured to write against it, and quite another to actually speak individual names to the House Un-American Committee looking to squash such individuals. This latter action, which did not happen in reality, is what is portrayed in the film. | |

| I think there's more to it than his just changing his mind. He vowed to help Trumbo and the others, and then turned his back entirely on the party. And I think a lot of those still affiliated felt he didn't so much change his mind as crack under pressure. I was just offering this as an alternate view. It's been a few week's since I've seen the film, so I can't quite recall the parameters of their falling out in it. | |
