Only a golden boy like Beatty would have had the clout and cojones to make a 3-hr. romance about U.S. communist John Reed and his love affair with both Bolshevism and feminist Louise Bryant (Diane Keaton). Beatty set out to make a great movie and came damn close, finding epic heft in Reed's trek from Greenwich Village to Red Square. On its 25th anniversary, the film looks even better. Jack Nicholson is a sexy standout as Louise's lover Eugene O'Neill...

Changes in the economy over the past 40 years have enabled young Harvard alums to make substantial amounts of money in investment banking or consulting right out of college, discouraging radical action or protest during their time as undergraduates...
...much: “Cultural and historical differences in femininities and masculinities, transnational sexualities, women writers, gender and media studies, lesbian/gay/bisexual studies, transnational feminisms, gender and environmental movements, philosophies of embodiment, queer theory, women’s history, transgender studies, gender and religion, the political economy of gender, feminist theory, race/class/gender politics, technology and gender, gender and science, and masculinity studies are just a few of the areas of study that fall within this concentration’s purview...
