Guilty by Suspicion is a 1991 film about the Hollywood blacklist and associated activities stemming from McCarthyism and the House Un-American Activities Committee. It starred Robert DeNiro, Annette Bening, and George Wendt.

Plot summary

David Merrill (DeNiro), a fictitious director in 1950s Hollywood, returns from abroad to find that a rising tide of McCarthyism and the Red Scare has led to his not being allowed to work in films, despite his love for this career. He will only be allowed to direct once he implicates colleagues as Communist agents. He must decide whether to direct, or to stick to principle at the cost of his life's work.
