The film's closing credits stated that portions of the film were shot in Budapest, Hungary, with the assistance of Hungarofilms and Mafilms.
In Russia, in the early 1800s, meek and bespectacled Boris Dimitrovitch Grushenko is about to be executed for a murder he did not commit. While contemplating the events that led to his predicament, he acknowledges that death is inevitable and wonders if perhaps all of mankind is ultimately executed for uncommitted crimes. Boris recalls happy childhood memories at his family’s summer house: Boris’ life with his eccentric, extended family is idyllic, but at a young age, he morbidly imagines himself crucified on a cross. After the funeral of a neighbor struck by lightning, Boris has a vivid dream about many coffins standing upright in a field from which waiters exit and dance with each other. After that dream, Boris knows he will never be ordinary. In his first mystical vision, Boris meets Death and asks the shrouded figure what happens when people die. He asks if there are girls, but Death will only acknowledge that Boris is interesting, and promises to meet him again. As Boris matures,
3. Love and Death | Rotten Tomatoes
Woody Allen plunks his neurotic persona into a Tolstoy pastiche and yields one of his funniest films, brimming with slapstick ingenuity and a literary inquiry.
In Woody Allen's comic take on 19th-century Russian philosophical novels and the Soviet-era epic films made from them, Boris (Woody Allen) is a simple Russian villager who pines from afar for his beautiful cousin Sonja (Diane Keaton). Forced against his will into joining the Russian army during the Napoleonic Wars, the cowardly Boris accidentally becomes a military hero. But when his beloved Sonja comes to him with a dangerous patriotic scheme, Boris debates his desires and beliefs.

As I noted in my review of 1973's Sleeper, that film ended an era, as it marked the final time Woody Allen would make a consistently light and slapstick comedy.
Woody Allen reinvents himself again with the epic historical satire that is a "wonderfully funny and eclectic distillation of the Russian literary soul" (New York Magazine). One of his most visual, philosophical and elaborately conceived films, Love and Death "demonstrates again that [Allen] is an authentic comedy genius" (Cosmopolitan).
