Reds (Special 25th Aniversary Collector's Edition) description
Warren Beatty's lengthy 1981 drama about American Communist John Reed and his relationships with both the Russian Revolution and a writer named Louise Bryant (Diane Keaton) is a compelling piece of little-known history told in a uniquely personal way. Beatty plays Reed as he did the title gangster in Bugsy and Senator in Bulworth, as a visionary likely to die before anyone fully recognizes the progressiveness of the vision, including those who are supposed to be on the same page. Jack Nicholson has an interesting part as fellow intellectual Eugene O'Neill, and the late author Jerzy Kosinski--himself a refugee from then-Soviet-controlled Poland--makes a strong impression as Reed's problematic Russian liaison. --Tom Keogh |

An Oldie But A Goodie - Beatty is timeless
|
If you haven't seen Reds, then you need to, because even though it's now 25 years old, it's still wonderful: well-written, well shot, beautifully directed, and wonderfully acted. The story is still pertinent - and now, 25 years later, seems to be even more poignant. Especially interesting is Beatty's decsion as a director to include interviews with the movers and shakers of the time, and the way they were shot and edited is fascinating...
Don't pass this one up! |
