Busefellers

The first part of "Black Horse" explains the shipwreck and how Eric and Black met.
The background music has a slight wind and drums, which indicates the occurrence of disaster. When Eric gave Black Sugar Cube, it reminded me of Lin Xiujing and her beloved horse in the Korean movie "Sugar Cube" (you can check this if you have the opportunity Movie), it is said that feeding certain animals with foods such as sugar and salt will make them closer to you.
The scene of the pony at the beginning of the movie is shallowly buried in the desert, as well as the accents and costumes of the horse dealers, as well as some local elements in the background music and the use of musical instruments. Arab ancestry. Arabian horse is one of the oldest horse breeds in the world. This kind of horse is unique in cultivating excellent riding horses. Many horse breeds in the world, such as English thoroughbred horses and Anglo Arabian horses, have their blood.
The upturned tail of Arabian horses when running is their unique feature, which can explain why the tail shape of the pony statue and the tail of Black running are different from other horse breeds.
The story that Dad told Eric on the boat may have been changed to cater to the story of the movie. In fact, when Alexander was 12 years old, King Philip bought a dark horse called "Busyphilus" with a lot of money. The horse was so violent that all the warriors on horseback were thrown off. After careful observation, Alexander discovered that Busefeles was very scared of his shadow. So he bet his father that he could tame this fierce horse. Alexander drove Busefellers towards the sun, so that the shadow of the horse was just behind the sun. Then Alexander climbed into the saddle and rode Busefellers around. Seeing this, King Philip said happily: "My child, you must build a larger kingdom to fulfill your ambitions. Macedonia is too small for you." Later, Busefeles became loyal to Alexander. The mount, accompanied him to fight in all directions, until today's Pakistan and the Indian "elephant" were killed in battle. Therefore, the little boy told by my father who tamed Busefellers should be the director to pave the way for the second part of the story of survival on the deserted island.
The second part of "Black Horse" is majestic and majestic. There is almost no line, which makes me feel inexplicably incompetent. At this time, Eric and Black have been with each other day and night, and the background music is layered and soft. The rhythmic tone of the audience fascinated the audience with the original feeling, especially the scene of Eric and Black walking and dancing in the water, as beautiful as a waltz.
The audience can watch comfortably, but they can't realize how difficult and hard it is to shoot animal movies. Black is an authentic Arabian horse. If he wants to play with the boy obediently under the camera, he needs a lot of comfort work and real-time capture. However, I believe the relationship between actor Eric and Black is real.
In the third part until the end, the movie returns to normal routines. I think this kind of old-fashioned return may not be a good thing. The director cannot continue the second part of the story and make "Black Horse" a sequel to "Robinson Crusoe".
What impressed me the most was Black's ankle injury during the game. Eric yelled and stopped in distress, as if he fell from a boat into the sea, but Black struggled forward in order to get a breath, and Black knew very well in his heart. He is the king of speed. Believing that Eric hesitated until the moment he threw off the knight hat, he believed in Black, and said to himself, "Go out!" Just before catching up, Eric and Black merged together and recalled the island at the same time. The day before, so they won...
At the end of the story, Black kissed the pony statue, and the background music again blew the Arabian wind.
"Black Horse" made me admire the director's soundtrack talent. In the whole film, the background music is hardly repeated and it incorporates various styles of music elements. The rhythm follows the ups and downs of the film's plot, no more, no less, just right.
At the end of the film, the scene of Eric and Black rolling and playing on the beach gave me the urge to abandon work, money, everything, and follow a dark horse away.

The Black Stallion quotes

  • Mr. Ramsey: [picks up a small carved statue of a black horse] You know, I'll bet this is the most valuable piece here. It's Bucephalus, the magic horse of Alexander the Great. A long time ago, this King was gonna kill Bucephalus; because he was so wild, the King couldn't ride him. He had Bucephalus brought into a big arena and people came from all around; because they wanted to see this horse that was the biggest and the blackest and the strongest, the most beautiful horse that ever was. King Philip goes walkin' out der and he looked out on some of his men and he said, "Kill that horse." Just then a voice called out from the edge of the crowd and said, "I can ride that horse." Everybody looked around, they said, "Who said that?" Looked over and it was a little kid - just about your size, just about your age. And King Philip looked over and he said, "Son, if you can ride that horse, you can have that horse." So, Alexander walked out in the big arena and standing in the middle of the arena was Bucephalus. He was *big* and he was *strong* - and he was pawing the ground. And there was *fire* in his eyes. And there was smoke comin' out of his nose. And he went: Mmmmbbbbbb. And Alexander walked up and quick-as-a-cat he jumped up on his back, and he grabbed hold of that long black mane - and away they went! Just like lightening! And they jumped right over the crowd, right over the stands, and went ridin' out over the hill. Everybody said, "Whew!"

    Alec Ramsey: [disbelievingly] Smoke comin' out of his nose.

    Mr. Ramsey: Fire in his eyes!

    Alec Ramsey: Fire in his eyes.

    [chuckles]

    Mr. Ramsey: Well, that's the way I heard the story.

  • Girl Reciting Poem: Ode to Alec Ramsey: I think that I shall never see, A boy as brave as Alec Ramsey. Hunger and thirst, And fear and pain, He lived because his heart had aim. A horse! As black as night to day, A beast, A god, With whom he did stay. They slept on the sand, And played in the ocean, And rode over the island, In a singular motion. Now, here he sits, A hero among boys, With the love of a horse, Much more than mere toy.
