I have read the book twice and seen the 50s Audrey Hepburn version and the new version done a few years ago, but this is the best I have ever seen. I actually put it on in the evening but could not tear myself away and stayed up all night watching it. Plan to watch again this weekend.

Miss Audrey, for all of her beauty and talent, really was not emotionally invested in a story of Russia.

[@Fastlanedann]

I was totally disappointed with the 'Audrey Hepburn version', despite Ms. Hepburn's beauty and talent, I thought that version was a 'JOKE'. The producer should be ashamed, and it should NEVER have been released.

[@rbaet3465]

Audrey Hepburn was a bit old for the role at the time, and she was not Russian. However, I feel her vibe and appearance when she was younger in 'Roman Holiday' really feels like Natasha. The Russian version tries too hard to show the innocent side, but because she tried too hard, you can sense the obvious acting

Дурак это не антивоенный фильм а о войне и обществе мире во время катастрофы

[@yanan4249]

This is the western perception, where everything is good or bad, pro- or anty-. Tolstoy was a great advocate for peace and being a person, a human in any circumstances. But still it is not anti-war, he calls the war "necessity", though he sees nothing heroic in any war. He is against glorifying any war, that is true, and he said that the human life has the highest value, more then anything in the world. And also he says that all are people, one side or the other. That's why Pierre saves the French officer.

[@catholiccrusader5328]

The burning of Moscow in this film makes the burning of Atlanta in Gone with the Wind feel almost cheaply done and unserious.

[@BadBoy-bt6lb]

Moscow was really burned. Russian generals, dragging Napoleon into the depths of Russia, burned not only Moscow. The plan was so that the French army could not hide from weather conditions and replenish food supplies. Kutuzov said so, “I will force them to eat their horses.”

[@BadBoy-bt6lb]

The Russians left the villages and burned them. They took away the birds and artiodactyls. Napoleon realized that something was going wrong even before he approached Moscow. He could not understand why the Russians were setting fire to their cities and villages.
