“On February 6, 1957, the Board of Governors voted for their own shameful rule: according to a new clause in Article VIII, Section 1 of its bylaws, any member of the Communist Party or former member who refused to publicly renounce it, or who defied a federal investigation, “shall be ineligible for any Academy Award so long as he persists in such refusal.”
― Michael Schulman, Oscar Wars: A History of Hollywood in Gold, Sweat, and Tears

“After his father went off to fight in World War II, his mother informed Dennis that he had been killed in an explosion during basic training. Not long after, nine-year-old Dennis was stunned when his father returned home from Peking; his death had been a cover story for his work with the Office of Strategic Services in Asia. “Now,” Hopper recalled, “wouldn’t that make you a paranoiac?”
