Steven Spielberg has a movie coming out this winter that I didn’t even know existed until just this morning. Here’s the trailer for War Horse:
This screams out “Movie that will have me crying like a little girl at the end”.
(It also strikes me as odd that, when I watched the trailer on YouTube, it was preceded by an advertisement that is…a trailer for another movie. I have to watch a trailer before get to watch a trailer? Really?)
Hell, I got a little teary just from the trailer! Looks like Spielberg might be back in form…
I was lucky enough to see the musical in London, Thanksgiving 2009. It looks as if Spielberg has filmed it as a "straight" play. It is remarkable. If you get a chance, see it on stage.
