"War Horse" tells the story of an extraordinary friendship between a boy and a horse whose fates were separated because of the First World War...
The horse's name is Joey, and at the fair, it He was frequently asked for the price, and was eventually bought by Albert's father Ted Narracott with a sky-high price of 30 guineas. The lame man also offended the landlord. Albert and Joey had fun and shared it with friends. However, the good times didn't last long, and the landlord came to visit, saying that if Joey couldn't plow the land and take it away immediately, Ted had to gamble all his belongings. So, under pressure, Albert put a saddle on Joey, forced it to plough, and even used a leather whip. In the end, the spiritual Joey really understood Albert's difficulties and ploughed a wasteland full of rocks. out, showing its unexpected potential for the first time.
In order to pay off the debt, Ted worked hard, and his hard work paid off. The hard work paid off, but a heavy rain ruined everything. When the Germans attacked, my father was forced to sell the horse to the cavalry for 30 guineas. Although it was difficult for Albert to part with it, he could only bid farewell to Joey in tears and set foot on the battlefield with an uncertain future. Joey, who joined the army, quickly became the captain's mount because of his strong physique and docile obedience. However, the war was fierce, and Joey had to change the owner. From the British captain, the French old farmer and granddaughter, to the German cavalry, it encountered all kinds of people, saw their life ups and downs, the ups and downs, the ups and downs, and the pain and trauma brought by the war. And Albert, who was unforgettable to Joey, also came to find it after joining the army. Although in this desolate trench, Joey's courage touched the soldiers and people around him, he was able to find warmth and hope, but his heart was thinking about his little master Albert, and finally they met..
a highlight of the film In order to rescue the war horse, the soldiers in the two opposing camps cooperated, talked and shook hands. This is a side reflection of human nature. War is imposed, but human nature will not be wiped out. In addition, I really like the tone at the end of the video, the dusk, the warm feeling!
