For the classics. But not really understood.

The process of watching has been thinking, after all, it has always been the love and marriage between noble families, but why is it called "War and Peace"?

At the end, I finally want to understand something.

Although the film has always been a romance story, it is undeniable that it also runs through everyone's growth and perception of life, especially in the two male protagonists Andre and Pierre, they even have a clear conversation About how to live life.

The two male protagonists' understanding of life and life has changed a lot with their life experiences - Andre first participated in the war with enthusiasm before the war and left his wife, and then returned to the family with no sense of the honor of the war, but he experienced the long-term depression of losing his wife. Only after returning to life, he did not expect to experience emotional trauma again, so that he once again looked down on life and death on the battlefield; Pierre experienced his wife's betrayal and joined the Brotherhood, and went to war scenes and was captured to re-understand life.

What the story wants to express may be the last words at the end of the film - only after experiencing hardship can we understand life. When life seems to stop, it is actually the starting point of a new life! Live in, happiness is in!

Combined with the title, perhaps what the story wants to express is that whether war or peace, these are life experiences and will shape people's cognition!

    After watching three episodes, I really can't stand it anymore, an ugly love story of a group of ugly young people.

    The novel itself is too powerful, no matter how you shoot it, it is impossible to look bad. The biggest problem is the lack of Russian flavor, the brutality of roughness and ideological collision, while the British elegance is carefully polished, and the shelf is complete. As an adaptation, it has been considered fair.

  • [last lines]

    Pierre Bezukhov: [voice-over] They say sufferings are misfortunes. But if I was asked, would I stay as I was before I was taken prisoner, or go through it all again? I would say for God's sake, let me be a prisoner again.

    Pierre Bezukhov: Come, let's sit and eat and give thanks for our good fortune.

    Pierre Bezukhov: [voice-over continued] When our lives are knocked off course, we imagine everything in them is lost. But it is only the start of something new and good. As long as there is life, there is happiness. There is a great deal... a great deal still to come.
