If the horse at the top of this website didn’t tip you off, we are horse people. We have horses, we ride horses and horses have been a big part of our family for practically ever. I grew up watching horse movie after horse movie – from The Black Stallion to National Velvet – I loved them all.
After seeing a preview for War Horse, I knew I was going to love it. Steven Spielberg directed and produced this film, which is based on the Tony award winning Broadway play of the same name. This film, set during World War I, seemed to have all of my favorite movie elements: war and turmoil, selfless devotion from an animal, a moving soundtrack and a gripping end that guarantees no dry eyes by all who watch it.
We settled in for movie night a couple of weeks ago, ready to watch War Horse. The movie tells the tale of a horse named Joey and his trainer, Albert. We followed the story as war tears the pair apart – and I’ll admit, I really had no idea what to expect. The ending could happen one of two ways – heartbreaking tragedy or uplifting resolution. I won’t spoil it for you, but I will say that this movie took me through just about every possible emotion. I laughed, I cried… several times!
The DVD/Blu-Ray combo pack of War Horse comes PACKED with all sorts of extras. My favorite by far was the hour long documentary that shared the behind-the-scenes journey from the making of the movie. I always love getting to see what happened off-camera, and this bonus feature (entitled A Filmmaking Journey) does not disappoint.
The 4-Disc Combo Pack (2-Disc Blu-ray + 1 Disc DVD + Digital Copy) Includes:
A Filmmaking Journey – Academy Award®-winning Director/Producer Steven Spielberg provides a unique and unprecedented look into the making and filming of “War Horse.”
Editing & Scoring – Multi-Oscar® winners Michael Kahn (film editor) and John Williams (composer) discuss specific aspects of editing the film and composing music for “War Horse,” as well as the secret to their long and successful collaborations with Steven Spielberg.
The Sounds of “War Horse” – Seven-time Academy Award®-winning sound designer Gary Rydstrom takes us through the sophisticated sound design he created for “War Horse.”
Through The Producer’s Lens – Producer Kathleen Kennedy shares the photos she took during filming and recounts how she discovered the source material, as well as her appreciation of Steven Spielberg’s vision, the team that sounds him, and why “War Horse” appealed to her.
“War Horse”: The Look – Director/Producer Steven Spielberg introduces us to his creative team of production designer Rick Carter, costume designer Joanna Johnston and director of photography JanuszKaminski, who discuss what it took to design the look for the film.
An Extra’s Point of View – Film extra Martin Dew explains how and why he was brought in––along with a hundred other men––to be featured alternately as both German and British soldiers.
