Still, the seven hours' version still omits many facets (including the almost satirical epilogue) of the original 1600 pages work of Leo Tolstoy. I was prepared for a similar experience before I saw the two-part movie by Russian director Sergei Bondarchuk. Likewise, I found the 1954 movie War and Peace very disappointing. You have a picture of the scenes, locations and characters in your mind, and hardly ever a movie comes close to those images.
