Marsha Hunt's Sweet Adversity

After watching this wonderful documentary on the life of Golden Age film actress Marsha Hunt...I suspect that she would have left the Hollywood life and become an activist anyway. For those who don't know, Marsha Hunt was a very successful working film actress who by her 30's had worked in over 50 films and at almost every studio including the Tiffany of film studios, MGM. Unfortunately, the 1950's and its anti-communism sentiments took over the country and due to no fault of her own she was put on a blacklist. Go watch the film to get the whole fascinating story. One thing I must add that the film did not, was that I suspect that Marsha would have become an activist regardless of whether she was black listed or not. Marsha seems extremely intelligent and does not seem like someone who would have remained an actress anyway but I am sure she would like to have been the one to make that choice.
