1) Is the recent Napoleon miniseries I believe (or maybe Colonel Charbert) 2)Is the Soviet War and Peace |

The Battle of Hollabrunn is from Wojna i Mir (War and Peace) by Sergei Bondarchuk. |

Why do they always have such older actors playing Napoleon? At Eylau he was still in his thirties. |

I assume the Colonel Chabert is the one starring Gerard Depardieu, does it have many more battle sequences in it?
Ooh, just read Gwen's comment- so which is it?? Miniseries or Chabert? |

Charbet does not have any other battle scene. And the scene is the miniseries. |

Gwen is correct. Napoleon miniserie from 2002. It was on cable TV. imdb.com/title/tt0253839 |

Of course, the history channel will never show a great miniseries like this when they can flood the airwaves with reality show garbage that has nothing to do with history at all. They even have a freaking game show now. *heavy sigh* |

That said I thought the miniseries battles were smaller than what the first clip shows. That is respectable. And yes, the history channel is a utter disgrace. |

I assume the Colonel Chabert is the one starring Gerard Depardieu, does it have many more battle sequences in it? Pretty much the charge at the start, the rest is more a psychological study. |
