War Horse


I finally saw War Horse. I loved it!

Steven Spielberg seems to understand the bond between human and horse and doesn't get overly cutesy about it. He also understands the equine fight or flight instinct quite well. All in all, War Horse is an incredible story of trust and love.

Bring tissues. This ol' softie was all teary-eyed during the movie.

The UConn Morgans are descended from cavalry horses bred by the government. The blood that flowed in the brave horses that carried men into battle is the same blood that flows in today's UConn-bred Morgan.

Here's to you, courageous, noble horse.
