What's the prettiest horse you ever saw in a movie?
Shrek 2. It's canonical!
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
What's the prettiest horse you ever saw in a movie?
Shrek 2. It's canonical!
It's canonical!
Yes, it is. But in the canon of Shrek.
The paint horse in Hidalgo.
Brego. Shadowfax. Goliath. And Cass Ole, the horse actor for TBS, as David says. Even with a weave.
Tom wins.
He totally does.
Tom's answer rules but my pick would be the grey Irish Draught in the riot scene in Billy Elliot.
The picture of Cass Ole on the Koko page led to others. Pictures of Arabians always bring back the description in King of the Wind, that for speed there should be as much horse forward of the withers as behind, or that the outstretched neck and head, particularly the thick, muscular Arabian neck, should measure the same as from withers to tail.
There are other beautiful breeds, but I was stuck on the beauty and symmetry of Arabs from an early age.
