look at the scene

This year, the BBC is really addicted to the remake.
Personally, I think this casting is a bit of a failure.
I don’t understand how Lily James became popular. I

have never been very keen on Soviet and Russian culture
. I just blame my literary accomplishment for not reaching that level . To
put it bluntly, I felt bored
when I read the original book. It's

still awkward to watch a group of British people play Russian dramas intermittently. The
key is that no
matter how different people respect tradition and culture, they still don't feel that way.

Anyway, the whole drama ends with a very positive energy.
As long as there's life, there is happiness

    Doubt the first two episodes and the last four episodes are not one director. I haven't read the original book, but it's not bad as a complete British drama. The last four episodes really captured the vicissitudes of life brought about by the war. But the war scenes were quite deducted, the filming was messy, and the emotional part was too scattered, and it was washed away by the war. Overall three and a half stars, the extra half is for the third episode of the dance scene, which is only enough for the heroine to recall a lifetime, enough for any woman to recall a lifetime

    The BBC chose Toon's works for this adaptation of the famous novel, and simplified the grand and expansive Soviet-Russian style into the love story of young men and women in the British countryside. Fortunately, the British people's good taste and delicate production attitude towards literary works made this film. The remake's interpretation of the two profound themes of "death" and "forgiveness" in Toweng's original work is not thin, and it is still moving.

War & Peace quotes

  • [first lines]

    Anna Pavlovna Scherer: But mon cher ami, how can you be so calm? This... this monster, Bonaparte - he's crossed into Austria now and... who's to say that Russia won't be next.

  • [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.
