Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace (11/19 & 11/20)

Part 1 - Monday, November 19 @ 7pm
Part 2 - Tuesday, November 20 @ 7pm

New Restored 35mm Print! There are epic films, and then there is War and Peace. Winner of the 1968 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, this mammoth production took five years to complete and employed over 100,000 extras. Its cost in today's dollars has been estimated at $1 billion. It tops several categories in The Guinness Book of Records. But this War and Peace is much more than statistics and spectacle. Adapting Leo Tolstoy's classic novel faithfully but dynamically, Bondarchuk balances the epic and the intimate, with vivid characterizations and powerful emotional climaxes. Sergei Bondarchuk himself plays the insecure intellectual Pierre, and Vyacheslav Tikhonov is a dashing Prince Andrei. As Natasha, the enchanting woman they both love against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, Lyudmila Savelyeva is not only a beautiful and talented actress but a trained ballerina whose exquisite grace contributes to the show-stopping ball sequence. The staggering Battle of Borodino sequence, utilizing a good chunk of the Red Army, has to be seen to be believed. In collaboration with Seagull Films and Mosfilm, we are pleased to present a newly restored 35mm print of War and Peace. Any video version of this legendary achievement is bound to be inadequate. You don't want to see the biggest film of all time on a small screen. -Marty Rubin
