Pitching into his campaign, which included a whistle-stopping run across the state last week aboard his special "Wabash Cannonball Express," were Wife Ethel, Brother Teddy, Sons David and Michael, Daughter Courtney, Sisters Pat Lawford, Jean Smith and Eunice Shriver, Sister-in-Law Joan, Mother Rose and Dog Freckles...

Tolstoy's book may not have been reliable as history or wholly satisfactory as fiction; yet it achieved, in the words of Tolstoy's biographer, Henri Troyat, "the majesty of a second Genesis." Bondarchuk's film catches part of that majesty by showing Mother Russia dressed in the 19th century's bloodstained finery, overshadowing her doomed, noble children.
