The book, the play and the film all have different strengths. I have loved all the genres with which the story has been told.
I'll record or watch on the night. Whenever I watch it I cry.

I didn't enjoy reading the book which I thought was very poorly written. Watched the film and one particular scene had me gasping with horror and sobbing my heart out. Would love to see the theatre production. |

"Have I missed it? What side was it/is it on?"
BBC1. It's just finished.
I cry at ploughing the field, I cry when he has to pull the canon up that hill, I cry when he gets tangled in the wire, I cry when he is reunited with his boy and then I cry at the end just for good measure.

"I must be getting hardened in my old age as I don't see what all the fuss is about this film! I watched it a while ago and was just bored!
I cried at Dumbo till I was 17 lol"
It's a boy and his friend story with WWI thrown in. How did you manage not to cry?

I cried too much when I first saw the film as I was in a very bad place at that time. I cried a bit when I saw it at the theatre and I did cry a bit when I read the book the first time. I cried less this time. I'm a wimp.

Translating the stage version to film was always going to be a challenge, the originality of the puppetry difficult to portray on film.
However Spielberg understood completely the message..it's not a war story..it's not a horse story...it's a people story. |

"Will watch it again but didn't think too much of it at the pics which surprised me as I so have an interest in horses. "
Maudlin shite, its not even original. Its Black Beauty with soldiers. Very poor film. |
