The Dudes can't recall one key Commandment with 1996's The Crucible.  Arthur Miller's masterpiece was both a dramatization of terrible historical events as well as a  powerful allegory against McCarthyism and the HUAC.  Such witch-hunts unfortunately carry on to this day, and if this were a just world, the swine who start them would receive swift retribution.  All that aside, this is a great movie and you should watch it.
