    Director Jay Roach draws inspiration from outspoken characters with big personalities as evidenced in such films as Austin Powers, Meet the Fockers and Campaign. For his latest film, "Trumbo," Roach takes on a subject close to his heart, the Hollywood Blacklist, and highlights the dramatic and comedic perseverance of screenwriter Dalton Trumbo.
