REDS (1981) - ****/5

Really good/great 180+ minute epic from Director/Producer/Co-Writer/Star Warren Beatty about one devoted idealistic socialist in turn-of-20th century America where the dreams of a working man-liberated socialist system begins in Russia, only for it to become corrupted and the dream bastardized by those that desire power.

I'll do a deeper review sometime, but quite a nice big surprise for me. Too bad Beatty never did display this grand direction ever again in his directorial projects afterwards.
