What Storm Center Is About
The librarian of a small town refuses to take a book off the shelf when the city council asks her to. The book is called The Communist Dream. After the refusal the town turns on her, she loses her job, and she is labelled a Communist soon enough. Bette Davis plays Alicia Hull. Daniel Taradash, who wrote it, also directed. It is generally counted as the first film made in Hollywood to argue openly against McCarthyism, and it shows at town scale how censorship moves from a book to a person. It was made in 1956, while the argument was still going on.
