What books is Weinstein holding??
Looks to be Elia Kazan!!
The most important one was a biography about Elia Kazan, a famous commie filmmaker who turned on his fellow communists and gave their names to the government.
>Kazan's career was upended amid the Red Scare during the Hollywood blacklist in the early 50s. For nearly two years during the Great Depression, Kazan had been a member of the American Communist Party in New York.
>The testimony he delivered before the House Committee on UnAmerican Activities remains controversial today, though his body of work is still celebrated as among the best of all time.
>The Committee in April 1952 called on the director to identify Communists. Kazan initially refused but eventually provided the names of eight former members of the Group Theater. While most of them had already been identified, Kazan's decision to testify cost him many connections within the film industry, including with playwright Arthur Miller.
The guy was seen as being evil for a long time for giving up names to the point where that outshone everything else he'd ever done in his life and career. It wasn't a coincidence Weinstein was carrying it.
>I would rather do what I did than crawl in front of a ritualistic Left and lie the way those other comrades did, and betray my own soul. I didn't betray it. I made a difficult decision.[29]
