As was recently reported in Breitbart, next year I’m planning an Anti-Communist Film Festival. It can be difficult and expensive to counteract all the left-wing propaganda coming out of Hollywood. As someone who regularly attends film festivals featuring movies from Ireland, Africa, Iran, and other countries, I realized that we could put on an Anti-Communist Film Festival, give the people the truth, and throw a big party. I am currently in talks with theaters in Washington, D.C., about rentals and licensing fees. They are enthusiastic about the project.
There is no shortage of great films over the last 70 years that have preached freedom. Here’s my list of the ten films we’d like to screen.
The Lives of Others
I Married a Communist
The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Red Dawn
My Son John
The Death of Stalin
I Was a Communist for the FBI
Hammer & Tickle
Freedom’s Fury
State of Control

Fun book that was intended to be against the anti-communist battle but unintentionally helps it.
Red Scared: The Commie Menace In Propaganda and Popular Culture. Movies and TV listed.
Man on a Tightrope
Mr Jones
In the Fog
Graves Without a Name
THE RIVER CHANGES, is a low budget European Cold War era film. A small river that is part of the boundary between East and West changes course and puts a small village on the east side of the iron curtain. The communist officials arrive and proclaim the “good news”. Soon privately owned rifles are confiscated and other controls proceed. The film ends with most of the village escaping to the west across the river at night.
“The Lives of Others” is truly one of the greatest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s a true masterpiece of filmmaking. It’s in the category of “Gone with the Wind” and “The Godfather” and various Hitchcock films in achieving cinematic perfection.
Pickup on South Street(1953). Richard Widmark, Jean Peters and Thelma Ritter versus a Commie spy ring.
“The Chekist”
+1
Hard to watch.

The Anti-Communist Film Festival: Democrat convention
Great book.
“The Lives of Others” was excellent.
I saw “Eleni” too. I used to comb the stacks at Blockbuster for these kinds of movies.
Here’s another:
“Archangel”
Animal Farm, Watership Down...it was banned in the Soviet Union. The Obsolete Man episode of Twilight Zone.
I can’t remember the name of the movie, there was a Czech movie about a fake border station inside of Communist Czechoslovakia, where they would have Communist agents acting like US Soldiers, in order to trick escapees into thinking they had crossed the border to the West.
Yes, the remake. Not the original.
I’m talking about the 1984 one. It was dumb. That’s the only one I’ve ever seen.
This is an obscure one I came across a few years ago that’s on YouTube

Ok...that's a rare opinion in my experience!
