Coinciding with the rebroadcast of CCTV, watch the great works again

When I saw CCTV rebroadcast this film, I couldn't help but watch it for a while. CCTV's version has a very rough dubbing, but it is quite different from the classic version.

Turn over what was posted on WeChat in the previous paragraph.

The Criterion Collection (CC) recently released a Blu-ray version of the Soviet 1966 film "War and Peace," re-imagined to bring this historic Soviet film to life on screen. After I got it on eBay, I couldn't wait to put it into the Blu-ray disc player to rewatch this familiar and fresh movie.

I have liked this film since I was in middle school, and I have watched different versions many times since I was a child, and it has had a huge impact on me. I'm a lazy person who doesn't like to read the original book but likes to watch the movie. After watching this movie and reading some related content again, I have a deeper understanding of the movie.

I will read the new version this time, I know some things like this, I hope it is something positive, and I can set an example for my children.

1: This film is a national film project in the post-Stalin Soviet cultural relaxation period. The five-year shooting period is the largest in the history of the Soviet Union (perhaps the largest in the history of the world film), more than 10,000 soldiers, more than 1,000 warhorses, and more than 100 locations. The super-national cultural project is said to be 58 A Soviet state museum took out cultural relics for rent for free. Most of the glittering props on the screen were real guys.

2: Director Bondabchuk was a fledgling young director when he took over the project. He is also an authoritarian dictatorship. The relationship between the director and other actors and staff is very poor. It is said that thousands of people were interviewed for the role. male protagonist in his twenties

3: Many original artistic techniques show superb standards, such as mobile photography and long-range composition, which were completed under the conditions of no on-site monitor.

4: In addition to the over-aged Pierre played by the director himself, other characters have also been greatly modified compared to the original, such as the beautified Andre of Natasha, and sacrificed a lot of other characters.

5: The "Armageddon" of the Soviet Union and the reprocessing of the above translation constitute a magnificent historical drama on CCTV, and it seems that the original work is a work full of humanistic feelings.

Recording the joy of watching old movies while sneaking around, I hope that in this hurried world, including my lovely son, I can be touched again and again by something that must be "positive" in the future.

    The Soviet version of "War and Peace" in 1966 was the most expensive film in the history of world cinema. Its production cost was US$560 million. This film fully embodies the superiority of socialism-"Concentrate your forces to do great things." The magnificent war scenes and moving emotional entanglements described by Leo Tolstoy are all delicately displayed in this nearly seven-hour movie. Regardless of the length of the movie or the depth of the script, this "War and Peace" is indeed the pearl of film history. Director Sergey Bondarchuk’s artistic techniques are not only embodied in the literary control, but his mirroring, transitions, scheduling, and soundtrack are all worthy of repeated study.

    (9.0/10) 1966 Bondarchuk version, 423 minutes CC version. This may be a model for small-scale film and television adaptations of literary masterpieces, especially works on the scale of war and peace. On the basis of retaining the main body of the original book and even a large number of details, it uses the unique form of expression of the film, so that it can still be independent. Existing in another art form, there is neither standing still nor overwhelming. It's just that the system of the original book is too huge. If it were adapted as a series with three main characters and four parts of a war, it would be unrealistic to compress it into an integrated movie. The two battles of Austerlitz and Borodino are the pinnacles of the reappearance of the battlefield before the era of digital special effects. In the post-war context, the expression of the Russian national complex that was too simple was somewhat lower than the original grand pattern of Toon. Top 100 candidates for personal film history.

War and Peace quotes

  • Pierre Bezukhov: Amuse yourself with women like my wife. There, you're within your rights. They know what you want of them. They are armed against you by the same experience of debauchery. But to promise an innocent girl to marry her - to deceive, to abduct her. Don't you understand that's as despicable as beating an old woman or a child?

    Anatol Kuragin: I don't know about that.

  • Prince Nikolai Andreevich Bolkonsky: Russia is lost. They've ruined her.
