Lungo, lunghissimo, ed anche interessante, non lo nego. Ma Warren Beatty lo odio discretamente.

I made it up to the intermission then told myself, "stop pretending you care,"

Beatty's best outing as a director though not his best performance (Keaton and Nicholson steal the film). I can't believe this was made in the Reagan 80s. The use of the interviews with the "witnesses" was very well done (nice to see Henry Miller in there too).

Possibly the biggest reversal in my moviegoing life, but that's what happens when you see a 3 hour film on the Russian Revolution when you are 12 and get bored silly. When you revisit it 25 years later, you realize what a masterpiece it truly is. http://eddieonfilm.blogspot.com/2007/01/re-fighting-cold-war.html

Nice story (yes, nice), Beatty was great and I felt inspired by the independence and rebelliousness of Keaton's character as well as her imperfection. But shit me it was too long...I only watched it for Nicholson who was cool as ever! Oh, and it got me to hate commies for a bit, job done?

whether or not this film has flaws – and it does have many, but they're easy to overlook – one has to, at the very least, admire a mainstream hollywood director for making a film as stylistically subversive (the way it's constructed, with the interviews and all, is so fascinating), about fucking communism nonetheless, as this during the cold war. i will always treasure this great, great film.

Some great scenes and some good performances but it mostly felt like a bad history lesson. Way too long for its own good.
