Famous Horse Movies

Today, I would like to take a moment a celebrate horses’ great accomplishments in film. Some people may not know that the son of the horse Vigo Mortensen rides in “The Lord of the Rings” films now resides at CTRC. It’s true, in fact they are pretty proud of it. They’re telling everybody. With that in mind, let’s take a look back at the silver screen’s more memorable equine stars.

 

Here is the horse from “The horse whisperer.”  I have never seen it, but I assume she or someone else whispers to it. None the less a lot of people were talking about it for a while.

This is of course the majestic creature from the 1994 classic “Black Beauty.” That was a great movie.

Now “Seabiscuit.” Not the real Seabiscuit, he died. 

Let’s switch things up. Instead of horses featured in the movie, here are some great supporting horses.

To all the horses, and cattle for that matter, from “City Slickers,” I say kudos. The main one especially did a great job. I also loved him in “Home Alone.”

Finally we take a look Clint Eastwood’ horse from “Unforgiven,” certainly one of the favorite westerns among people who watch westerns. That must be one tough horse.
