‘Trumbo’ movie draws attention to blacklisted author’s papers at UW

Trumbo’s fight against the blacklist comes to life in a new movie, “Trumbo,” opening Wednesday at Point Cinemas, and starring Bryan Cranston (“Breaking Bad”) as the author. The film, which is already getting some Oscar buzz, may also draw attention to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where Trumbo donated 45 boxes of his materials, including screenplays, drafts, personal letters and photographs.
