Why do great actors have to be such naïve liberals? Here is Bryan Cranston, regarding his upcoming potrayal of avowed communist Dalton Trumbo:
“The debate on the NSA, wiretapping, how much we invade a person’s privacy — that continues,” says Cranston, an outspoken liberal in his own right. “Trumbo didn’t commit a crime, yet he went to prison. So he’s emblematic of oppressed people throughout our history, whether it’s African-Americans or Latinos or communists. In America, there was a time when fear-mongering was tremendously effective. We are continuing to relive it.”
