Edward Dmytryk: Hollywood Maverick

Edward Dmytryk was a Canadian-born filmmaker known for classic Hollywood hits such as Crossfire (1947) and The Caine Mutiny (1954). Here in this clip from 1985 he discusses his troubles with the Hollywood Blacklist, as well as the frustration of trying to get films made in his late career when filmmaking decisions were left to those with no experience in film. Dmytryk was luckier than most, as he did not have to leave the US or write or direct under a pseudonym.
