Over the years, this blog has championed the story of War Horse, from the very time it opened as a play in London in 2007.
When director Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Pictures authorized a beautiful coffee table book about how the film was made, you knew it had to be worth a look.And I'm here to report that it is worth owning, and that it is also a tremendous gift.
Hoofcare Books has added War Horse: The Making of the Motion Picture to the list of books and media that we sell. You can order yours today! Scroll to the end of this article for ordering link and information.
The book is full color, with 144 pages, about half of which are massive full page photos taken during the production of the film. It is hardcover, with thick, high-quality paper and dust jacket.
War Horse: The Making of the Motion Picture has several introductions--include one by Steven Spielberg. After the formalities, it features an introduction to 21 cast members with portraits. They're arranged in the order in which they appeared in the film, for easy reference.
There are also beautiful sketches of set designs from the art directors and even storyboards of how scenes like the barbed wire entrapment were sequenced.
Then comes a visual (mostly) history of war horses through the centuries, ending with World War I. Cue War Horse, and then you'll want to go back and read it all again!
