I agree that "Reds" was Hollywood crap. I mean, they couldn't even do "Grapes of Wrath" -- so, how "Reds"? 

But Reed's "Ten Days that Shook the World" is a great (and short) read. 

For films about the revolution, see Eisenstein's stuff. 

Also, the two great WWII movies (of many great Russian WWII movies), see "The Cranes Are Flying" and "Ballad of a Soldier." They capture some of the spirit and faith of the revo.

Magnificent film making.
