...Oh my gosh, so many great comments on War Horse!<br /><br />@JaneGS- You will be transfixed if you have a cavalry soldier in your family tree!<br /><br />@Sophia Rose- Bring a box of Kleenex and enjoy a great cry!<br /><br />@Mom Wald's Place- I don't blame you for skipping this one. I loved it but you have to be prepared and in the mood for a roller-coaster ride of emotions.<br /><br />@Carlos- You'll particularly like the scene where the British and German soldier meet in no man's land. Spielberg does an awesome job of not taking sides in his portrayal of the war. The enemy is the war itself. So glad your grandfather was able to get out in time. Both world wars have so many sad stories for all nationalities!<br /><br />@ Mary S- The horses are truly characters in this so you and your daughter will love it.Jenny Allworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08518779478842699970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-53705655057727783452012-01-09T16:52:07.712-05:002012-01-09T16:52:07.712-05:00I really want to see this one.

By the way, my grandfather was on the opposite side of those battle lines in WWI - and then had to escape Germany before WWII because he was Jewish.Carloshttp://www.chickflickguy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-25636433381330100482012-01-08T21:11:35.011-05:002012-01-08T21:11:35.011-05:00It looks beautiful, and I trust your judgement com...It looks beautiful, and I trust your judgement completely.

I never met him, but would've loved to hear his stories.<br /><br />Wonderful review--I know I will cry buckets. The movie looks visually fantastic as well.JaneGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11094501834387622997noreply@blogger.com
