Watch this film for the different style in which it has been presented…something that is both interesting and irritating. Interesting because you wouldnt have watched one like this and irritating because it spoils the narrative – a classic example on how style over substance is not good. Wonder why Kiera Knightley didn’t get an oscar nomination for her brilliant performance. The art direction and music is top class. Dario Marianelli can definitely win the oscar for best original score. For those who have read or watched the other versions of this Leo Tolstoy classic, there is nothing new.
