Winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Film, this rendition of Leo Tolstoy's novel is artfully produced and well-worth viewing. The story involves Russia's war in 1812 against Napoleon's invading troops and how Russia was left with a changed society. Meanwhile, Countess Natasha (Lyudmila Savelyeva) and Count Pierre Bezukhov (the film's director Sergei Bondarchuk) fall in and out of love as events in their lives are changed during the war. But by story's end, they are reunited.
