Synopsis
Buzz: Profiles legendary Hollywood screenwriter and acclaimed novelist A I 'Buzz' Bezzerides, who quickly became known as 'the King of Noir'. Graylisted during the McCarthy era, 'Buzz' was one of many talents to suffer from the industrial-style practices of the 'dream factory' in which writers were regarded as being at or near the very bottom of the food chain, and frequently denied screen credits.
