I used to work on a Pete Seeger sloop, The Woody Guthrie. He was a great conversationalist. One day, while discussing a grant for deck repairs, I went on a tangent and brought up his 1955 HUAC hearing, where he invoked the 1st amendment. As a result of not cooperating with the committee, he was sentenced to a year in prison, but he appealed and won. Pete went on a 1 hour rant that day about J. Edgar Hoover, McCarthy, and Cohn. He loathed Roy Cohn, and thought him beneath contempt. I can't wait to see this film.
