    I finished watching this masterpiece last night on HBO Max. I cannot believe that (a) this was filmed in the mid 1960's and (b) that the USSR financed and promoted a story partly humanizing Russian aristocracy. The cinematography, artistic direction, decorative minutia, costumes, Napoleon-era battle scenes with mind-boggling pyrotechnics, and remarkable stage-like acting made this one of the grandest cinematic projects in history. And the soul of Tolstoy dwells on every scene. Seven hours and I never EVER got bored or tired. Each scene was delightful to watch, as if you were enjoying a beautiful painting. What a tribute to art and culture!

      In a novel with many, many threads - including the very meaning of life - Tolstoy's key message was that good people should combine to do good - just as bad people combine to do bad things. Specifically, the historical focus is of a single man whose imperial ambitions lead to war, invasion, destruction and the deaths of tens of thousands. Tolstoy's message and warnings apply as much today as when we wrote his book.

      Yes, it first ran during the summer over 4 nights on ABC. It was the US release version that had an hour deleted, re-edited and dubbed in English for the US theatrical release, that was released in 2 3-hour parts and won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language film. I think I was 15 when it was on. I thought I'd watch ten minutes, then the film started and in the first 10-seconds I was mesmerized. After it was ove my life had been changed. I no longer saw life in terms of black and white, good and bad--but in many shades of grey, and where everyone has positive and negative traits, and no one is without flaws. I then read the Toldstoy book over the course of a year. I'm now in my late-60's and for years I have kept a copy of the book on my nighstand and open it to any section and read a few pages and it gives me comfort. It's a story about Life. Everybody is looking for Love. Love, the most beautiful and elusive of all things.

It's a long work, but the character development is amazing and Tolstoy combines philosophy, religion, history, the psychosis of human natures, all into one work. It's a masterpiece. I used to say that Lonesome Dove was the greatest novel All respect to Larry McMurtry, but Tolstoy is just on another level. I've read The Idiot as well. I liked the work, but the character development and the many themes in War and Peace is what puts Tolstoy's work far above Dostoevsky's novel.

    Work on the film was carried out for about seven years (of which three years were given to shooting the serie "1812"). The picture is considered one of the most expensive in the history of cinema. The budget of the film adaptation was estimated at $ 100 million at 1967 prices (or 560 million in 2007). During the filming, Bondarchuk had serious health problems: in the summer of 1964, he suffered a severe heart attack, which caused filming to be suspended for a month and a half. The director suffered the second attack after the premiere. The film crew has prepared thoroughly for the film adaptation of the novel. Fifty museums of the country have provided their collections for the film - so that the characters and the setting correspond to the era as much as possible. More than four dozen enterprises produced costumes (there were nine thousand of them), exact copies of awards, snuffboxes, carts, weapons and even 200 thousand buttons. Lomonosov Porcelain Factory recreated a large dining set for the film based on drawings of the XVIII century. 150 wagons with equipment were delivered to Transcarpathia, where the Shengraben and Austerlitz battles were filmed. Three thousand soldiers of the Carpathian military District of the Soviet Army were involved in the filming. The main battle scene was filmed in the Dnieper valley, near Dorogobuzh - this place is very similar in relief to Borodino. A huge number of people were involved in the crowd: two armies, Russian and French, portrayed 15 thousand infantrymen, 950 cavalrymen. In the "battle" 40 thousand liters of kerosene, 23 tons of explosives, 15 thousand hand smoke grenades, two thousand checkers and one and a half thousand shells were spent. The extras got used to the image every day: they built, went on the attack, practiced fighting techniques. The film crew managed to create a feeling on the screen without special effects that not 15, but 120 thousand people took part in the battle.

      Absolutely 100% agree!
      The most epic film ever made!
      You couldn’t possibly afford to make this film now, especially in Hollywood!
      If this film were made today in the U.S.A. it would probably cost
      Close to a billion dollars, and I’m pretty confident with that estimate.
      All other adaptations are trash in comparison, if one could
      even compare any of those other “things” with this masterpiece.
      Now that this film has been restored so beautifully it’s even more of an
      untouchably grand epic that should be considered one of the greatest films
      to ever grace the silver screen, if not the greatest!
      I can’t say enough great things about it but I am going to have to try.
      Of course I have no need to explain to you how much I love this film,
      or how amazing it is, for we are likeminded and kindred spirits in regards
      to this masterful work of cinema.
      Bravo! Bravo! Encore! Encore!

    Ну,а настоящим героем фильма,как и всего произведения, является РУССКИЙ НАРОД.
    Великолепна игра ВСЕХ актеров.Невозможно выделить лучшего.
    По размаху фильм можно сравнить с "Унесенными ветром",который также считаю шедевром АМЕРИКАНСКОГО кино.К сожалению,в современное время,такие фильмы уже не снимают.

    THE greatest epic ever made.
    This is part 1. Total length is 7 hours. I hope the other parts will follow.
    Saw it a few months ago on Blu Ray and this quality is as good or maybe even better, with stereo dialogue.
    It has a unique stately style where often characters themselves narrate part of of scene or speak their thoughts out loud and it takes a while to adapt to the style and relate the subtitles to the correct speaker. It’s an emotional beautiful romantic story of love and tragedy, and also a realisation of Napoleons greatest battles featuring a cast of many thousands.
    For Sergei Bondarchuck to take on the role of the male lead and the role of Directing this monumental epic, and creating such a masterpiece, is pure genius.
    Watch and try to take it all in. No other movie reaches into your heart and soul as this movie does.
    THIS film, at about 7 hours long, and
    2001: A Space Odyssey
    are the two greatest movies that will ever be made. They will never be surpassed. (UK)

      By the way, according to the book, Andrei was seriously wounded during the battle on the Borodino field. This was a real battle with Napoleon. Russian monuments and obelisks are kept on this field. Guderian’s tank troops advanced through Borodino. The Russians stopped them there. When I went on an excursion, I visited those places. In the bunkers, the year of birth and the names of the soldiers are scratched into the cement walls.

    that's wonderful ! breathtaking ! when I saw this film in Paris in 1971, I was far from thinking that Soviet cinema could produce a film of such magnitude. Sergey Bondarchuk revolutionized cinema by introducing paint, each sequence is a Delacroix painting: the result is that the filmmaker not only equals Tolstoi, but goes further, to a level that will never be equaled by cinema again. even Akira Kurosawa, who devoted his film Ran (= war in old Japanese) as a tribute to color, did no better. Why was Sergey Bandarchuk so ignored? I'm not asking you.

      I saw it 5x in Bloomsbury Square cinema in 1974. It lasted 7 hours(!), beginning at 12 midnight. I was hooked.
      There was always a bit when I fell asleep, usually when Petya is shot, & I was awakened by his Mother's demented screaming.

    Webster (St. Louis) University's film series ran the whole movie on three consecutive nights Friday to Sunday in 2019. You paid for either one night or for the entire weekend. I bought the latter, and also the novel itself along each night. An hour into the first night, I finally tossed the book aside and just reveled in the pure eye-popping visual spectacle up on the wide screen for the remainder of the weekend.

      I don't see the irony. Yet again, Western regimes try to subdue Russia. And again, failing. But this time Russia due to a powerful leader will NOT be invaded.
