I had expected to leave after two hours, but instead stayed to the end. Napoleon comes across as not a nice man, though perhaps not the Antichrist he was regarded as in "War and peace."

"Napoleon!" Anna exclaimed. "That Antichrist! Short man, long war."

Andrew, dead in battle? Not!

Impetuous Nicholas enlists. Uncouth and illegitimate Pierre has a mission to kill Napoleon. Andrew loves Natasha, who loves Anatole.

They all go out for pizza.
