Some other thoughts about unreliability: REDS problematizes its romanticized depiction of John Reed by interpolating interviews with people who knew Reed and/or experienced many of the events depicted in the film. Problem is--they often contradict each other, fail to remember names and events, and offer differing interpretations of what happened. Also see NIGHT OF THE SHOOTING STARS by the Taviani brothers. This film recalls an incident in WWII Italy after the fall of Mussolini and is narrated by a woman who addresses "My Love." At the end, we discover that this is actually a bedtime story told to her child. "Reality" is a continuing problem throughout Robert Altman's IMAGES, in which Susanna York is on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
