The Hollywood Ten is a 1950 American 16mm short documentary film. In the film, each member of the Hollywood Ten made a short speech denouncing McCarthyism and the Hollywood blacklisting.
The film was directed by John Berry. After being named a communist by fellow director and former party member Edward Dmytryk, one of the Hollywood Ten, and ex-Communist Party member Frank Tuttle, Berry was unable to find work again in Hollywood after 1951, and left for France.
The documentary is available on the DVD releases of Spartacus and Salt of the Earth.
