War and Peace

(1956)Directed by King Vidor208 min · PGWar, Romance, Drama, History
“The greatest novel ever written ... Now magnificently alive on the screen!”

Natasha Rostova (Audrey Hepburn) is a young countess in Russia, full of feeling, and she is already drawn to the awkward, kind-hearted Pierre Bezukhov (Henry Fonda). King Vidor sets their story against the invasion of Napoleon's army in 1812, a war that arrives in Russia while the two of them are still deciding what they want. Between Natasha and Pierre sits an affection that neither of them knows how to name.
