Reds, the movie

[bay]

no one answered "Reds" in the movie question on the survey. One of Warren Beatty's best, IMHO. of course, being an ex journalist with a passion for causes, John Reed is one of my heroes. You all probably know, Reed wrote 10 days that shook the world, about the russian revolution.



some movie lines:

Emma Goldman: I think voting is the opium of the masses in this country. Every four years you deaden the pain.

Eugene O'Neill to Louise Bryant

Eugene O'Neill: I'd like to kill you, but I can't. So you can do whatever you want to. Except not see me.

Eugene O'Neill: You dream that if you discuss the revolution with a man before you go to bed with him, it'll be missionary work rather than sex.

Louise Bryant: I'd like to see you with your pants off, Mr. Reed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John Reed: Louise, I love you.
Louise Bryant: No, you love yourself! Me, you FUCK!



Comrade Reed, you can always go back to your private responsibilities, so can I. You can never, NEVER go back to this moment in history

I read the book (one of my favorites) and had been looking to see the movie for ages. I downloaded it and when I went to watch it the sound was about a second out of sync with the picture. That was too annoying for me to watch so I only seen ten minutes of it. I think I will try again now that you have brought it up.
