Reds
Directed by: Warren Beatty
(Paramount)
A grand, large-scale look at the Russian revolution framed by a love story between an American political journalist John Reed (Warren Beatty, also writer-director) and writer Louise Bryant (Diane Keaton), with Eugene O’Neil (Jack Nicholson) waiting in the wings. Both epic and intimate, extras in the two-disc edition finally see the notoriously interview-shy Beatty talking about his best film.
