This is the barbaric yawp of the Soviet film industry circa 1968, an entertainment A-bomb test announcing to the world: 'Here is what we are capable of.'

Considering its cost and the vast effort that went into its making, such a film can be made only once in our time. The wonder, indeed, is that it was made at all.

Description by Image Entertainment:
One of the cinema's greatest epics finally comes to DVD in its original lavish, uncut splendor! This definitive version of Leo Tolstoy's literary classic boasts an unprecedented scale for its battle scenes, including a fully created regular army, over 120,000 soldier extras, and over 35,000 costumes, bringing heightened realism to such breathtaking setpieces as the Battle of Borodino and the 1812 Moscow fire. A sprawling production that nearly bankrupted the Soviet government, "War and Peace" chronicles the timeless romance between Natasha Rostova and Prince Andrei Bolkonsky, whose lives mirror the upheaval of the nation around them. Boasting exquisite widescreen photography and one dazzling image after another, this essential movie experience rivals "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Gone with the Wind" for sheer spectacle and entertainment!
