Yes! Is this really your work, Ridley? Or where you bribed by someone who hates Napoleon? If I where you, I wouldn't dare set foot on French soil from now on. How would YOU feel if Luc Besson made a movie about Nelson, ridiculing him?
Possibly a few extra scenes on Quatre Bras and Ligny, yes. However.... My own version has the scene where Napoleon says 'goodbye' to the old guard. And my version is longer too. In any case: A masterpiece! 😎😎.......... As opposed to Ridley Scott's abomination! (Which hurts especially deep, because he was once my favourite director) Rod Steiger plays Napoleon as it should: Like an EMPEROR! (Not like a buffoon, as Joachin does)

1st and 6th Corps inactivity on the 16th was what caused the loss of the campaign.A push and a shove does not a victory make.
Grouchy was appointed by Napoleon. Napoleon also made a late decision to send Grouchy after the Prussians (he waited until the next day) and he was also angry when Marshals didn't follow orders so in the end Napoleon is to blame the most for this error.
You are correct. I may need to re-title the video as it is ambiguous. I only meant that I had "restored" the scenes that were originally shot as Ligne to appear as the battle of Ligne. I edited a lot of scenes from the original, including all of Napoleons inner dialogue. I also taught my self to do CGI. I'm quite pleased it wasn't too obvious. No one has commented on the 3 shots that include my CGI.
Crazy how the soviet government allowed for such a film especially letting their own armed forces be trained for this film an learned how to play the instrument
I wish that the director had that one soldier welcome Napoleon back by raising his musket, then walk toward Napoleon, stopping before him at full attention in salute and offering a firm handshake rather than fainting. The fainting comes across as the soldier appearing weak or feminine instead of being in awe in Napoleon's presence as it was probably intended. But it wasn't my film and Sergei did it his way.
Thanks Mick, this is a fine film. No CGI, real scenes.
1:01:20 That's a cool little insert I think
And the bits from a reenactment are also interesting.
War and Peace 1968?
Those added scenes that show the scale of the army on the march really so make a difference. Nice job!
@BigManHoratio Yes thought they were familiar. But still worth it.
@BigManHoratio I did make that clear in the video decription.
Some favourite old scenes have gone missing! The highland dancers, Wellington dozing under The Times newspaper among them.
Great job with your additions!
Holy moly, this works so damn well!
Memo to Sir Ridley Scott GBE,
This is how you do it!
Yes! Is this really your work, Ridley? Or where you bribed by someone who hates Napoleon? If I where you, I wouldn't dare set foot on French soil from now on. How would YOU feel if Luc Besson made a movie about Nelson, ridiculing him?
Nice idea. Could combine some war and peace scenes with this
In the “Ligny” scenes, I think I spotted a few clips from War And Peace.
Yes, its clear to see. Nice idea by the way.
Some of the restored scenes are from later on in the film, especially the Prussians.
A pitty that this one isn´t available on BlueRay as a Director Cut.
Or even better; with my longer version! (dvd)
Can someone help me at 37:00 the Scottish are singing a marching song. I really want to find it
Its called "Below the Gallows Tree". Heres a version on youtube ruclips.net/video/jTv5m6stNAw/видео.htmlsi=5bwsKchjFpVJTTAo
The old guard never surrenders the old guard dies with honor

Blucher was all like “you gotta be fucking kidding me, WERE MY MEN GO IS MY STOMPING GROUNDS”
They just inserted scenes from the main battle with text underneath.
Partially true yes.
Groushy was probably the reason why Napoleon lost Waterloo against Wellington he should’ve split his force to reinforce Napoleon
Yes, he could have marched to the sound of the guns. But then again, we'd all be speaking French now, and eating snails and frog's legs! 😂😂

This is not a restoration. Some sienes, such as the doing drummer boy and Napoleon's conversation with la Bedoyere have been omitted

Well, you can say that Napoleon is so dominant that a young conscript just faints in front of him.
If Napoleon was a dictator how come he when he came back he was treated as a hero
@@ryleeculla5570A dictator is simply someone who has usurped a democratic regime, it says nothing of popularity or morality.
