Guilty by Suspicion

Suspected of Communist ties, movie director David Merrill (Robert De Niro) is told to name names in director Irwin Winkler's look at McCarthy-era Hollywood. Once on top, Merrill finds that no one will hire him after he's blacklisted. The strain brings Merrill back together with his estranged wife (Annette Bening), but he must still appear before the House Un-American Committee and respond to questions about his friend Bunny Baxter (George Wendt).
