War Horse

[Susiejb]

I saw the stage version in London in October - fantastic! The horse 'puppets' were amazing and with 3/4 people working them, you don't even notice these 'helpers' after a while. There was the biggest standing ovation that I'd ever seen at the end and I think we all shared more than a few tears. The puppeteers got the loudest applause of all and really deserved it.The applause went on for a very long time and everyone was upstanding.
I am looking forward to the film and hope I am not disappointed.

My grandaughter has seen the stage show twice with her school and she cannot praise it enough. I would absolutely love to see it.
I think it may be a little more true to the original book.
It would be nice to hear what you think of the film...I hope you enjoy it.

I have a feeling its going to be a "Read the book , saw the film" effect.
Never as good.
