FILM: Tolstoy's War and Peace


One of the greatest novels of the 19th century, War and Peace was made into a film and received an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in 1968 [during the Cold War].  Brilliant acting, stunning cinematography with epic battle scenes and spectacular, glamorous balls. Directed by Sergei Bondarchuk. Natasha Rostrova is played by a delectable and heart rending Lyudmila Savelyeva.
