	Magellan's Log: Dalton Trumbo: Johnny Got His Gun
		Trumbo's premise is devastatingly simple: For 300 pages he puts you inside the head of a World War I veteran.
		But, unlike the abstract propaganda of those who speak of glorious and just wars, it is propaganda based in the day to day, minute to minute, second to second pain and deprivation of a patriot-soldier who, unlike the thousands lying beneath neat white crosses in Europe and elsewhere, didn't quite die.
		And that is the horrible challenge that Dalton Trumbo presents to the reader.

	Amazon.com: Dalton Trumbo, Hollywood Rebel: A Critical Survey and Filmography: Books: Peter Hanson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		As a screenwriter, novelist, and political activist, Dalton Trumbo stands among the key American literary figures of the 20th century-he wrote the classic antiwar novel Johnny Got His Gun, and his credits for Spartacus and Exodus broke the anticommunist fllist that infected the movie industry for more than a decade.
		This new critical survey-the first book-length work on Trumbo's screenwriting career-examines the scores of films on which Trumbo worked and explores the techniques that made him, at the time he was fllisted in 1947, Hollywood's highest-paid writer.
		Hanson reveals how Trumbo dealt with major themes including rebellion, radical politics, and individualism-while also detailing lesser-known areas of Trumbo's screenwriting, such as his troubling portrayal of women, the dichotomy between his proletarian attitude and bourgeois lifestyle, and the almost surreptitious manner in which he included antiestablishment rhetoric in seemingly innocuous scripts.

		Trumbo, however, decided to end publishing of the book until the end of WW2.
		Trumbo seems to be confused on the question of war, it seemed to me after reading this book that Dalton was a pacifist, but the introduction makes it seem that Trumbo disapproved of WW1 but enjoyed the conflict of WW2.
		Trumbo's imagery is frightening, as is the painful stream-of-conciousness format that forces you into the protagonist's head.

	McCarthy's Secret Show
		The other night I went to see Trumbo, an Off Broadway trial run of Christopher Trumbo's play based mostly on his father, Dalton Trumbo's, amazing letters about life under the Hollywood fllist and other assaults on individual liberty in the name of national safety and security.
		Trumbo notwithstanding, there are heroes and villains in these pages, especially Roy Cohn at his witness-badgering worst and Democratic senators like Stuart Symington and Henry "Scoop" Jackson in supporting roles, out-McCarthying McCarthy in their efforts to prove the un-Americanism of Fifth Amendment-invoking witnesses.
		Perhaps Christopher Trumbo will find a way to stage these hearings as his next project, since rehearsal for a stage play is what they were--a tale told by a charlatan, full of bluster, signifying nothing.

		Dalton's prose style in this book made a strong impact on me. At times he seems to be assaulting the reader without mercy as he shows us the horror of war and its terrible human cost.
		I didn't know who Dalton Trumbo was until I read the book, he was accused as a communist, he was an idealist, and he was against war in any possible way.
		All that you see in TV commercials about joining the army for defending your country and all that bull, they don't prepare you for the things that you have to confront, the losses, the deaths,etc. Ask any veteran if the war was worth it in any way.
