The War and Peace the director made before this is even more impressive. I'm skipping straight to Borodino on the link but the full series (4 parts, with this being part 3) is free on youtube. It is extremely ambitious and far more epic than even Waterloo. You pretty much have nothing but huge HUGE sweeping battle shots. From about the 1 hour mark in, there is a nearly wordless 6-minute montage of scenes that I would consider to be one of the greatest moments in cinema.
DESU the entire adaptation is probably the best movie the Soviets ever made, part 1 has a short but good bit from Austerlitz. Watch it all if you can, the 70mm has toured before in the past, I would kill to see it in theaters the same way I saw Lawrence of Arabia which is probably unironically the greatest movie of all time IF you can see it in theaters.
>If you pause towards the end of the montage when the Russian infantrymen are moving and firing, you can see they are using full size Mosin Nagants. I can't even get mad at that since no one would notice that in the 1960s when you can't pause.
