Read the novel. Nothing can ever top it.

Agree. But, the visuals of the time period costumes will be amazing to see.

I listened to it on CD ... 56 discs, iirc. I don’t remember many passionate scenes in the bushes.

BBC version from the 1972 with Anthony Hopkins as Pierre was also excellent. Hope this one won’t disappoint.

I almost dread what filmmakers are going to do to one of my favorite books.
Typically, they make a great book into a superficial, lurid, one dimensional farce.
Too bad.
