The 1972 miniseries adaptation of War and Peace by The BBC. It was released in 20 episodes from 30 September 1972 to 8 February 1973.The series, like the novel before it, begins in 1805 Russia. It stars Anthony Hopkins as Pierre Bezukhov, who unexpectedly inherits his father's fortune and becomes one of Russia's richest men; Alan Dobie as his best friend Andrei Bolkonsky, a nobleman who pontificates about his purpose in life; and Morag Hood as Natasha Rostova, the naive and romantic youngest daughter of Count Rostov. As Napoleon moves towards Russia, the lives of these three people and their circles intersect more and more.The BBC would release another miniseries adaptation of the book in 2016.

The Klutz: Pierre has several moments of clumsiness. Countess Rostov amusingly notes that whenever Pierre visits, he will knock into a table in the hall.

Voiceover Letter: Focused on Pierre. Most memorably as the war-traumatized Pierre attempts to read a letter from Hélène. Her words repeat several times due to Pierre's inability to concentrate.

Gilligan Cut: Slightly delayed. Pierre swears by his word to Andrei that he will not attend Anatole's wild party. Cut to Anatole's party. Guess who soon arrives?

Bait-and-Switch: The final episode comes to 1820 with Nikolai coming home. He sees Sonya looking after the children. It seems the two finally got together. However, a flashback reveals who Nikolai truly married. Return to the present, a pregnant Marya appears to her husband.

What the Hell, Hero?: Sonya does this to Natasha. She was forced to sacrifice her engagement with Nikolai so he can marry Marya Bolkonksky, which would not have happened if Natasha had married Andrei Bolkonsky instead of ruining things by her affair with Anatole.

Calling the Old Man Out
 War and Peace (1972) / int_e52a0409
comment
Calling the Old Man Out: Actually, the Old Woman. Natasha does this to her mother twice. One, for selfishly refusing to use their wagons to carry the wounded soldiers at the sacrifice of their furniture and possessions. Two, for keeping secret the fact that Andrei is among the wounded with them (so it will not cause a reconciliation that will hinder Nikolai's financially lucrative courtship with Marya).
