Adapted from Leo Tolstoy's voluminous novel, this historical drama directed by King Vidor depicts the turmoil in the lives of several fictional aristocratic families during Napoleon's invasion of Russia shortly after the beginning of the Nineteenth Century. Audrey Hepburn stars as Natasha Rostova, joined by Mel Ferrer playing Prince Andrei Bolkonsky and Henry Fonda cast as the idealistic, but hapless, Pierre Bezukhov. The plot revolves around sweeping intrigues of love and war, including both romantic and battle scenes.
