Waterloo: Why? Why?

This is the famous (infamous?)scene from Sergei Bondarchuk's 1970 film "Waterloo", edited out of most released versions, where an Irish soldier, played by Russian actor Oleg Vidov, breaks from his square during the French cavalry charge to question the meaning of everything that's happening around him.
