Audrey Hepburn鈥檚 role as a headstrong princess leads her to fall in love with actor Gregory Peck鈥檚 character in the 1953 movie听Roman Holiday. But screenwriter听Dalton Trumbo鈥檚 (A&S鈥�29) relationship with the film was seemingly nonexistent as he was excluded from its credits until this year.

Trumbo was blacklisted during the anti-communist fervor of the late 1940s and 鈥�50s, becoming one of the Hollywood Ten who refused to testify about his political beliefs in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee. The Ten were cited for contempt of Congress, fined and sentenced to a year in jail.

Eventually, Trumbo was publicly given credit for two blockbuster films 鈥斕�Exodus听补苍诲听Spartacus. He died in 1976. On campus, the screenwriter was honored posthumously when the university named the fountain located north of the UMC after him in 1993.

鈥淚t is not in our power to erase the mistakes or the suffering of the past,鈥� Chris Keyser, the president of the Writers Guild of America, West, told the听New York Times听when Trumbo鈥檚 name was added to the credits of听Roman Holiday. 鈥淏ut we can make amends, we can pledge not to fall prey again to the dangerous power of fear or to the impulse to censor . . . And, in the end, we can give credit where credit is due.鈥�
