On this day, December 4, 1981, the historical epic Reds premiered in theaters. Directed by and starring Warren Beatty, the film follows the true story of journalist John Reed, whose account of the Russian Revolution, Ten Days That Shook the World, made him a notable figure in history.

The film boasted an impressive cast, including Diane Keaton, Edward Herrmann, Jerzy Kosinski, Jack Nicholson, Paul Sorvino, and Maureen Stapleton. Reds was a critical success, earning 12 Academy Award nominations and winning 3, including Best Director for Warren Beatty.

With its sweeping portrayal of revolution, politics, and personal relationships, Reds remains a cinematic milestone in both storytelling and filmmaking.
