I Know War And Peace Being The Most Expensive Film Of It’s Time Has Been Disproven, But Does Anyone

The world’s most expensive film was War and Peace, made by the Russian director Sergei Bondarchuk between 1963 and 1967. The 8-hour-long film, which is screen over three to four evenings, is reported to have cost more than $40 million. It was shot on 168 different locations—the biggest total for any film— and included a cast of 120,000 extras from the Red Army.

i know war and peace being the most expensive film of it’s time has been disproven, but does anyone know about the claim that it has the highest number of locations for any film up until it’s release?

no one understands natasha rostova autism. it’s so hard being pretty and also intensely unsettling.
