Salt of the Earth (1954)
dir. by Herbert J. Biberman
Genre: Drama
Written, directed, and produced by blacklisted filmmakers in 1953 at the height of the McCarthy era, this socio-political drama centers on real events that occurred surrounding a strike by Mexican American miners over the unfair conditions they labored under at a zinc mine in New Mexico. In some ways, it was ahead of its time; inequality between ethnicities, genders, and income classes are explored. It starred mostly real people involved in the actual event depicted, was independently financed and made on a shoestring budget, and has the distinction of being the only film to have been banned by the House of Un-American Activities Committee.
also: King Solomon's Mines (1937)
