Description: Writer-director-actor Woody Allen spoofs 19th century Russian lit (think Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky) in this intellectual comedy, rumored to be his favorite. A faint-hearted hero (Allen) is drafted for war and convinces his beautiful cousin (Diane Keaton) to marry him. She thinks he's doomed, but he manages to survive a sure-death duel. Now, a plot to assassinate Napoleon is the only thing that can keep them together.
