After hitting theaters in November, the Joaquin Phoenix-led historical epic “ Napoleon ” will begin streaming on Apple TV+ o n March 1. Ridley Scott’s two-and-a-half-hour film chronicles the life of the notorious French military commander Napoleon Bonaparte, from his beginnings through his ruthless climb to emperor — viewed through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife Joséphine, played by Vanessa Kirby. In his review of the film, Variety film critic Peter Debruge wrote that Scott “orchestrates staggeringly complex scenes in such a way that we can intuit the broad strategy, even as he scars us with horrifying details, like a drummer vaporized by a cannon blast or a massive army sunk to the bottom of a frozen lake at the Battle of Austerlitz.”
