He’s soon caught up in enemy fire; death, disease and fate take him on an extraordinary odyssey, serving on both sides before finding himself alone in No man’s land. But Albert cannot forget Joey and, still not old enough to enlist, he embarks on a dangerous mission to find him and bring him home. War Horse – Spielberg’s war movie has begun shooting. – It's like real life. There's just enough to make it interesting.
Hes a good Director, but certainly NOT the best ;-)) here are a few that could direct him to the floor with ease: John Ford, Lewis Milestone, Howard Hawks, John Frankenheimer, Billy Wilder, James Cameron and Otto Preminger for that matter. They gave us classics like: The Searchers, Stagecoach, Fort Apache, They Were Expendable, Halls of Montezuma, All Quiet On the Western Front, Rio bravo, Rio Lobo, The Train, Stalag 17, Titanic, In Harms Way-to name just a few.
The stage show has been a sellout success wherever it's performed. 'Joey' is a superb mechanical wonder. I've yet to see it. Steve W.
