Carl Foreman
American screenwriter and film producer (1914-1984)
Carl Foreman was an American screenwriter, film producer, and director. He was one of the screenwriters who were blacklisted in Hollywood in the 1950s because of their suspected communist sympathy or membership in the Communist Party, and subsequently relocated to the United Kingdom. He was nominated for six Academy Awards, and posthumously received Best Adapted Screenplay for his work on The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957).
