Re: [RC] Horse movies - patty bassi was waiting for someone to mention Lord of the Rings because i was so absolutely riveted to the horse that Gandalf (the wizard) was riding the entire film bridleless. i noticed a time or two that the hand position looked like he was holding reins but none could be seen and that horse galloped up steps and just did everything. and i noticed the feet and shoeing of the horses in the army. very realistid of the times. horrible to todays standards but realistic. there were a few closeup shots. anyone else notice? i always look for thecantle of the saddles under the robes of bareback riders. it just goes to show what a horse can be taught.

When I went to see The Return of The King, the latest Lord of the Rings movie I found myself trying to see stirrups on the feet of riders that were riding "bareback". I also like watching when they show a large group of horses running and you can always pick out the ones with their ears pinned and trying to bite the horse next to them. I was really amazed though at what they trained those horses to do. I remember reading that instead of using proven movie horses they just bought their own and trained them. I wonder if they sold those horses? Where else could you purchase a horse that was used to wearing armor and carrying people with swords? Not that I have a use for one but they had to be pretty spook proof! Amy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
