a| "Over a 30-year period, Robert Rossen was the most accomplished writer and director who was also a long-time member of the Communist Party. His films have been belittled or ignored, his valuable legacy denied. The book presents a thorough analysis of his 22 films, and their place in the developing themes of his body of work"--
