As the 19th century began...
:02:24
a darkening shadow
moved across the face of Europe.
:02:27
This shadow was propelled
by the voice of one man...
:02:31
Napoleon Bonaparte.
:02:33
Only Russia and England
offered impressive resistance.
:02:37
Over Russia the weather was clear...
the sun was shining.
:02:41
Napoleon was a thousand miles away...
:02:43
and the streets of Moscow
were excellent for parades.
:03:23
Splendid sight. Splendid men.
Eh, Pierre?
:03:27
- For parades.
- What do you mean by that?
:03:30
Remember. I've seen
the French marching too.
:03:33
Don't tell me they march
better than that.
:03:39
Led by the greatest man in Europe.
:03:42
Bonaparte?
:03:45
A usurper. A murderer.
A deposer of kings.
:03:49
A colossus.
:03:50
A fresh wind.
A cleansing force.
:03:54
What does your father say when
he hears you say things like that?
:03:57
We don't talk about things
like that, my father and I.
