Movie Haiku:Fedor Bondarchuk, following in the footsteps of his famous Oscar-Winning father Sergey, crafts his own WAR & PEACE style take in the greatest WWII battle on the Eastern Front. Like W&P, there is an excellent split vision--macro/micro--we see the huge tableau from the POV of a small set of Russians & Nazis fighting to the death over one crucially placed building. First IMAX from Russia!
