The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation has announced:
a new award to highlight Hollywood’s feats of cluelessness, naïveté, and deceit when telling the history of socialism, communism, and the Cold War. The annual Duranty Awards will be presented to those films, actors, actresses, and directors whose achievements in the field of misrepresentation truly deserve appropriate attentions.
The Film of the Year is Trumbo: “This story of self-avowed communist screenwriter Dalton Trumbo completely ignores Stalin’s murderous, totalitarian regime and the Soviet Union’s efforst to bring American into the communist fold through espionage and propaganda, including Hollywood.” Other Duranty Awards go to Bryan Cranston, Oliver Stone, and Michael Moore.
