Warren Beatty’s award-winning epic mixes drama and interviews with major social radicals of the period. REDS tells the story of the love affair between activists Louise Bryant and John Reed. Set against the backdrop of the tumultuous start of the twentieth century, the two journalists’ on-again off-again romance is punctuated by the outbreak of WWI and the Bolshevik Revolution.
