As you know, Miller was writing about the communist witch hunt perpetrated by Joseph McCarthy and others in the early 1950's. Miller himself was accused, as were many of his fellow actors who were blacklisted in Hollywood. In the film The Majestic, Jim Carey portrays a blacklisted actor who stands up for truth in precisely the way that Miller wanted his contemporaries to do.
