Whenever a big director spends a lot of money to express a big theme with big stars and make a big movie, it can often lead to cheers, but such movies often live up to their name, and "Reds" is a good example. Henry Warren Beaty brought in Jack Nicholson , Annie and Eugene Allen Hackman for the film , chose the Russian Revolution as the theme of the film, and it did get good results. In 1982, the film was nominated for nine Oscars and won a best director statuette for Henry Warren Beaty . That same year, Hugh Hudson was nominated, and Spielberg came to prominence, but it was Henry Warren Beaty who won .
John Redo is a well-known leftist journalist in the United States. In the 1920s, he went to the Soviet Union to interview and report, and wrote the famous "Ten Days That Shocked the World". "Reds" was filmed based on the real experience of Redo.

Five parts are full of messy squabbles, in other words, it's hard to get enough interest in this history. In the first part, the audience has to tolerate long-term flattering inducements. After that, there was a strange love affair between レド Redo and Louise: as they stared at each other, with the climax of the revolution and eighty years of vulgar music, the love between the lovers seemed to come to a head. The second part seems worth watching, and in fact, it would have been much better than the current version if the film had ended before this hiatus, because the atmosphere created by the labor movement was enough to flesh out the film. Maybe Henry Warren Beaty thinks too much, and it is mostly the hallucinatory cognition of the Soviet Union in Western society, so this noisy kaleidoscope is created.
