About

You can stream War and Peace, Part IV: Pierre Bezukhov (1967) on Max with a subscription.

As Moscow is set ablaze by the retreating Russians, the Rostovs flee their estate, taking wounded soldiers with them, and unbeknownst to them, also Andrei. Pierre, dressed as a peasant, tries to assassinate Napoleon but is taken prisoner. As the French are forced to retreat, he's marched for months with the Grande Armée, until being freed by a raiding party. Part four of the four-part adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's 1869 novel.

A wide-eyed, clumsy soul finds spiritual clarity amidst the smoke of a burning Moscow and the chaos of a retreating French army. This sprawling epic captures the crushing weight of history through intimate moments of survival and sudden, quiet revelation.
