I would just keep the Borodino battle scene... who cares about them silly girls?

Just give me the War part!

The battle scene was incredible, bettered only perhaps by Bondarchuk's later "Waterloo".

Those two battle scenes are simply the best in the history of world cinema, bar none.

I am sure you watched the first ball dance sitting on the edge of your chair, too... no?

All in all, a very personal movie, for a number of reasons. A monumental and deep work. Barrels of ink have been spent arguing its relation to the original book, but that is hardly important, although one MUST be familiar with the Tolstoy's work in order to "flow" with the film.
