MORE ABOUT THE FILM

An informed look at the individuals who made up the American Communist Party from the 1930s through the '50s. Fighting for the causes of unionization, unemployment and Social Security benefits, and the eight-hour day, they committed themselves to what they believed was the right way for America. Not just a rosy remembrance, Seeing Red looks critically at the party's connection with the Soviet Union and its lack of internal democracy. An invaluable resource for courses in political science, political sociology, and social movements.

REVIEWS

Roger Ebert

"A fine, tough companion piece to Union Maids. Seeing Red is less about dogma than about American idealism. It's social history of a high order."
Vincent Canby
The New York Times

"Tremendous! Seeing Red evokes a lifetime of political memories. Exceptionally well researched, fair and unbiased, it is a balanced and thorough look at the American Communist Party."
