Looks really good! Love horses and plan to see this big budget war film directed by Spielberg. I wish they would make something about the last US horse mounted cavalry charge by the 26th. Horses never had the voice to escape war... So we took them from all they knew and loved... and they died for us. The horse charged into hell as we did and they gave their lives for our country just as our forefathers. But in the end who was there to tell their story… Who was there to write their names on tombs and crosses no one. All their cries of fear and pain never heard until now.
"Your horse is a mirror to your soul. Sometimes you might not like what you see... Sometimes you will." B.B

Thanks for the heads up! Will be watching out for this movie. And yes, i do hope they make a movie about the 26th Cavalry, Philippine Scouts. Just read the book "Twilight riders" and they are indeed special.

Finally saw on New Years Day! Had a Great evening enjoying this breathtaking and spectacular cinematography. Can't wait for the Bluray!
The charge was breath taking! The trench and battle scenes reminded you of Paths of Glory's opening scene. I love drawing horses, these magnificent creatures of power and grace.
I hope one day there will be a film about the last charge of the 26th Cavalry!
Rotten tomato film critics gave it a 77% approval!! It got a nomination in the Golden globe awards already! ;D
