Napoleon 2023

6.40

Spektakularen akcijski ep, ki opisuje razburkani vzpon in padec slavnega francoskega cesarja. Ob osupljivem, veličastnem zgodovinskem ozadju se film poglobi v Napoleonov neutrudljivi boj za oblast skozi prizmo nepotešljivega, viharnega razmerja, ki ga je imel s svojo največjo ljubeznijo, Josephine, ter ob tem izpostavlja njegove prekanjene vojaške in politične taktike v nekaterih izmed najbolj silovitih bojnih prizorov, kar smo jih kdaj videli na velikem platnu. V režiji legendarnega Ridleyja Scotta je film dodelan do potankosti in dogodek onkraj pričakovanega.

1805. Napoleon prevladuje v Evropi. Le Anglija se mu upira. To so časi Napoleonovih vojn, zdaj pa so morja in oceani postali ključno in strateško bojišče. V Atlantskem oceanu angleško vojaško ladjo Presenečenje, ki jo je vodil "Lucky" Jack Aubrey (Crowe), nenadoma napade sovražna bojna ladja, ki je nad njo veliko boljše. Nato Aubrey sprejme spominsko odločitev: kljub resni škodi, ki sta jo utrpeli Surprise in njena zvesta posadka, vključno s kirurgom Stephenom Maturinom (Bettany), se odloči, da bosta, resno tvegana, odplula čez dve morji, da bi prestregla in ujela svojega sovražnika. To je poslanstvo, ki lahko določi usodo naroda ali uniči kapitana in njegovo posadko, s katerimi se sooča veliko bolje oborožen in neusmiljen zasebnik, v preganjanju po morjih, ki ga odpelje na drugo stran sveta.

Častnika v Napoleonovi vojski se vztrajno zapletata v niz nasilnih dvobojev. Spor se začne kot odziv na manjši nesporazum in sčasoma preraste v strastno sovraštvo, ki vlada med nasprotnikoma naslednjih trideset let. Keith Carradine in Harvey Keitel sta častnika v Napoleonovi vojski, ki se vztrajno zapletata v niz nasilnih mečevalskih dvobojev. Spor se začne kot odziv na manjši nesporazum in sčasoma preraste v strastno sovraštvo, ki vlada med nasprotnikoma naslednjih trideset let. Na kratki zgodbi Josepha Conrada osnovana pripoved prinaša študijo obsedenosti, moške časti in potlačenega nasilja.

Sharpe is a British series of television dramas starring Sean Bean as Richard Sharpe, a fictional British soldier in the Napoleonic Wars. Sharpe is the hero of a number of novels by Bernard Cornwell; most, though not all, of the episodes are based on the books. Produced by Celtic Films and Picture Palace Films for the ITV network, the series was shot mainly in Turkey and the Crimea, although some filming was also done in England, Spain and Portugal. The series originally ran from 1993 to 1997. In 2004, as part of ITV's new set of drama, ITV announced that it intended to produce new episodes of Sharpe, in co-production with BBC America, loosely based on his time in India, with Sean Bean continuing his role as Sharpe. Sharpe's Challenge is a two-part adventure; part one premiered on ITV on 23 April 2006, with part two being shown the following night. With more gore than earlier episodes, the show was broadcast by BBC America in September 2006.

War & Peace

War & Peace 1972

7.30

The classic BBC dramatisation of Tolstoy's epic story of love and loss set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars. Anthony Hopkins heads the cast as Pierre Bezuhov (a role for which he won the 1972 Best Actor BAFTA); Morag Hood is the impulsive and beautiful Natasha Rostova; Alan Dobie is the dour but heroic Andrei Bolkonsky; and David Swift is Napoleon, whose decision to invade Russia in 1812 has far-reaching consequences for Pierre and the Rostov and Bolkonsky families. The twenty-part serial was the vision of producer David Conroy whose principle aim was to transfer the rich characterisation and incident from Tolstoy's greatest novel to a television drama. Scripted by Jack Pulman and directed by John Davies, Conroy's War And Peace boasts superb acting, award-winning design (1972 Best Design BAFTA) and breathtaking battle sequences which were filmed in former Yugoslavia.
