The First World War is experienced through the journey of this horse—an odyssey of joy and sorrow, passionate friendship and high adventure. 'War Horse' is one of the great stories of friendship and war— a successful book, it was turned into a hugely successful international theatrical hit that is arriving on Broadway next year. It now comes to screen in an epic adaptation by one of the great directors in film history.Ever since Saving Private Ryan, the work of director Steven Spielberg has been hit-or-miss. Finally, our wait for the return of his classic touch is at an end with War Horse, both a model of cinema done right and – even more importantly – the epitome of Spielberg done right.The story starts on a farm in Devon rented by the Narracott family – father (Peter Mullan), mother (Emily Watson), and son Albert (Jeremy Irvine). When the father buys a beautiful horse for three times its work value, Albert becomes enamoured with it and trains it, naming it Joey.

Their bond becomes as strong as possible between a human and an animal.But on the outbreak of the First World War the British Army buys the horse, along with many others in the county. Albert promises Joey that they´ll find each other again one day – and eventually enlists to embark on a search for his friend.Spanning four years during the war, the story is of Joey´s journey; from becoming the mount for a brave English officer (Tom Hiddleston), to a German workhorse, to a gift from God for a dying little girl. He gives us a glimpse of the waste of war – and of all the soldiers, both young and old, who never deserved to die.

The film is genuine in its emotion, unflinching in its reality, epic in its grandiosity, effective in its performances, and imaginative in its storytelling.
ohn Williams´ score and Janusz Kaminski´s stirring cinematography only enhance this. The battle sequences (two large ones in particular) easily rival those in Saving Private Ryan.My sole complaint is a lack of compelling storytelling during the first 20 minutes, but otherwise War Horse is as flawless a movie as we´ve ever seen from the director.
Seeing something as brutal, terrible and human as war through the innocent eyes of a horse is an ambitious form of storytelling, and Spielberg pulls it off with honesty and authenticity. I felt each emotion as if I was a marionette, manipulated by the director´s strings.The most telling scene, set in No Man´s Land, involves a German and an English soldier, a pair of wirecutters, a horse and a casual conversation about home.It reveals what makes this a movie that will be watched generation after generation, with each one crying and cheering in the same places.It has all the hallmarks of the Spielberg we´ve missed so much: powerful, gutsy, honest, and effective.

Parents need to know that Steven Spielberg´s holiday movie release -- an adaptation of the English children´s book and acclaimed Broadway stage production of the same name -- is a period drama that follows newcomer Jeremy Irvine as Albert, a young man who will stop at nothing to rescue his beloved horse, Joey, who has been sold to the English cavalry during World War I. Expect both tears and cheers in this story about the extraordinary bonds between humans and animals.

Emily Watson has never been in a Harry Potter movie -- you´re thinking of Emma Watson, who plays Hermione Granger in the eight ´Harry Potter´ movies -- but that doesn´t stop people from telling Emily Watson just how much they enjoyed her performance as Hermione. In fact, according to Emily Watson, it happens all the time. To make it easier, just remember that it´s Emily Watson who has the two Oscar nominations.Emily Watson is in ´War Horse,´ the sure-fire Best Picture nominee about a horse named Joey and its trials and tribulations during World War I. Watson plays Rose Narracott, mother of Albert Narracott (Jeremy Irvine) -- a young man who raises a horse that is sold into military service. Watson was also in Brett Ratner´s ´Red Dragon,´ Charlie Kaufman´s, ´Synecdoche, New York,´ Lars Von Trier´s ´Breaking the Waves,´ and Paul Thomas Anderson´s ´Punch-Drunk Love´ -- four movies that came up during the course of this interview. Particularly the latter, a film that Watson loves (she´s even seen 30 minutes of Anderson´s next movie, ´The Master´) and she makes no bones about her desire to work with Adam Sandler again.
