In terms of the big production scale, it was just breathtaking to watch!

The shots of Russia- the palaces etc, it was truly amazing.

I would recommend the 1983 miniseries The Winds of War along with its 1988 sequel,War and Remembrance. Based on novels by Herman Wouk,together they cover the period from just before the beginning of World War II to just amount the end of that war. Much like War & Peace,the characters includes a mix of fictional and historic characters. There are interesting sequences in both the European and Pacific Theaters.
