Marsha Hunt's Sweet Adversity

I knew little of Marsha Hunt other than the few films I had seen her in - then I was informed of this fascinating documentary and I became aware of what a truly admirable trailblazer she was. The really wonderful thing is that Marsha is still with us and was very much a part of working with Roger C. Memos and his crew o f telling her story. My admiration of this lovely lady is boundless and I think this film is both informative and extremely compelling viewing. Talk about MUST-SEE -- this is definitely in that category!

This is a engaging and interesting history of Hollywood and beautiful memoir of the spectacular Marsha Hunt.

I love historical films and was riveted from start to finish!

I've already suggested this documentary to my friends and readers of my blog.

It's a simply perfect film!

Good documentary that would have been better had its subject been less insistent that it not focus on the blacklist which, with apologies to Ms. Hunt's solid acting career and admirable social activism, is the only sensible reason to learn about her life. When it does deal with those horrible events of the late 40s and early 50s, though, this work is riveting with the anecdote, previously unknown to me, about the debasement of John Huston alone worth the price of admission. As a previous reviewer wrote I will have a harder time watching this first rate director and second rate human being's work from here on out. Give it a B. PS...Glad to know Ms. Hunt's still kicking. Wonder if she and Norman Lloyd ever get together?

Excellent documentary about a wonderful woman and her Hollywood career before, during, and after The Blacklist. Inspirational.

A thousand thanks to Roger Memos and his team for creating this fire documentary. It is a story I did not know and it is a fascinating one!
