The Wrong Ian
I suppose we should be grateful that blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo is finally getting his due for “Roman Holiday” (“ ‘Roman Holiday’ Was No Lark,” by Steven Linan, June 26), but that’s no reason to refer to the script’s credited co-writer as Ian McKellen Hunter. For the record, that fine writer’s name was Ian McLellan Hunter.
