Re: [RC] Shadowfax - Sullivan

Hi RC,

Horse or not Shadowfax is simply breathtaking. In the scene where Gandalf
calls
him from the meadow I nearly jumped out of my seat and I was pinching my
husbands arm. It was soooo beautiful! I loved the imagery in the first
LOTR too
with the high-speed chase of horse or non-horse creatures. Of course the
battle
with the wolverine-creatures (sorry, I'm not up to speed on the
terminology
cause it doesn't matter what they are called to me) was pretty sad with
the
death of so many pretty horses. :o(

My daughter is a Tolkien fan and was apalled at the horses they used for
both Shadowfax
and the Riders of Rohan  She looked up every reference to Shadowfax in the
books and swears he
was supposed to be gleaming silver in color (as all the Rohan horses), tall,
and faster than can be.
She said the Andalusian used was paddling so badly it could hardly run!!
