1, running for free

Content introduction:

19 14, Lucky Pony was born on a steamboat from Germany to Africa, which will transport Lucky, his mother and other horses to a mine in southern Africa. But soon after the ship landed, it was fortunately forced to separate from its mother and face this strange environment alone. Fortunately, an orphan named Richard took the pony in, and Richard and Luck gradually became inseparable friends. On the farm where Richard worked, Luck fell in love with the beautiful mare, but Caesar, the father of beauty, often challenged Luck.

When the war broke out, people on the farm had to flee to the desolate Namibe desert to escape the war. Fortunately, Richard and I made many animal friends on the road and met a girl from Buschman. Forced by the environment, Luck and Richard finally had to break up, and Luck survived alone in this vast and barren desert. Under the harsh natural conditions, luck gradually matured, and it went through hardships and returned to the mine that had already been destroyed by the war, where it met its childhood lover, Little Mare Beauty. After competing with Caesar, the stallion, Luck finally became the leader of these abandoned but tenacious horses.

Brief comments:

The film tells the story in the first person of Lucky Pony. Here, man and horse are pure friends, just like two people.

2. Black Beauty

Content introduction:

A film based on Anna Schwier's masterpiece Dark Horse. From the perspective of the steed "Black Beauty", the film tells the story of many changes of ownership, joys and misfortunes, adversity and prosperity in his life.

Brief comments:

This is a movie about a horse's bumpy life, adapted from a famous book, and it is also a sad but beautiful movie that the horse speaks for himself.

3. Young black stallion

Content introduction:

A spiritual black pony, separated from the mare in the desert (taken away by the strongman), faces the difficult desert life alone; An Arab caravan was attacked by armed forces on the way, and the little girl Nila got lost in the desert. Nila met the little black horse, and they hit it off as soon as they met, and they also felt the same way, so they worked hard together to find their way home.

When Nellie came home, she found that her home had been ransacked, leaving only her elderly grandfather and all her animals. Nella secretly hoped to find the lost animal again, so she practiced equestrian diligently, hoping to get ahead in the local horse race. In the absence of coach and funds, Nila ignored grandpa's advice and entered the competition in disguise. But what challenges will this young team face against powerful opponents and severe challenges in the desert environment?

Brief comments:

The horse is beautiful, and the people on it are also very athletic. The story is simple and not long. I'm not satisfied after reading it, but I'm still unfinished. I always suspected that the film had been cut. There is a picture of the fairy couple of the parents of the little black stallion behind the feature film, which is magical and beautiful.

Why prequel? I watched a movie about a little boy and a dark horse (DVD is not available on the market), and it was also amazing. I think maybe these two films are sister films.

4. National velvet.

Content introduction:

1968+0920s Britain, an unexpected guest, Mac Llewellyn Taylor, came to Brown's house. It turned out to be the son of Mrs. Brown's late teacher. Mrs. Brown took May in out of gratitude, but concealed the truth. She only let Mai work in the store to earn her own living, secretly arranged various opportunities to influence Mai subtly, and encouraged Aima's daughters Weiwei and Mai to participate in the Marseille. Under various unfavorable circumstances, Wei Wei had to dress up as a woman and compete in person.

Brief comments:

Elizabeth Taylor, known as "the first beauty in the world", appeared in this masterpiece at the age of twelve. She played Veraway Brown, a girl who likes riding horses very much. At the end of the warm and touching ethical story, a wonderful equestrian competition at the finale pushed the audience's emotions to a climax. Director clarence brown has made a high-quality family film, and the fascinating story, exciting game scenes and wonderful pictures of nature all add infinite charm to this film.

Lovely little girl who loves horses, I believe many MM who love horses will be sad after reading it.

5, Pentium era (ocean biscuits)

Content introduction:

/kloc-in the 1930 s, the United States was in the shadow of the Great Depression, and the story began at this time.

Charles Howard used to be a bicycle repairman and made money by introducing cars to the western United States. He bought a very small horse named Seabiscuit, which translates directly into sea biscuits. Howard, semi-blind former boxing champion Rhett Pollard and former performer tom smith formed a team to train his pony. Pollard was a jockey and Smith was a horse trainer. Ocean biscuit and its three-person team began a legendary journey, and their life trajectories changed from then on.

Before that, all three people, for their own reasons, appeared to be losers in life, abandoned by family and friends and unable to realize their ideals. Howard made a fortune by car trading, but his son was killed in a traffic accident and his wife asked for a divorce. Pollard loved riding since he was a child. After losing everything, his family let him wander around. Smith is a cowboy. He can tame any wild horse, but he also wanders around and has nowhere to go. Their mohair biscuits, like their owners, are losers in horse racing. Not only are they smaller than ordinary racehorses, but they also seem to have leg problems. But when the three men began to train this seemingly hopeless horse, the persistence of both men and horses was revealed, and their tenacity and victory brought hope to the whole country in that gloomy era. ...

Brief comments:

The story of the film comes from real people, real horses and true stories, and it is the "main theme" movie in the United States. The rider Pollard was played by "Spider-Man" Tobey Vincent Maguire.

After the ups and downs, I strive to make progress, which deserves to be a good movie with "the main theme".

6. Indiana Jones (Hidalgo)

Content introduction:

Desert Cavalry is adapted from the true story of 1890.1At the end of the 9th century, there was a pony express company in the midwest of the United States, which was responsible for the delivery of mail. Frank Hopkin (viggo mortensen), a master courier, and his beloved Majdalgo are called legendary cowboys. In addition to express delivery, they have participated in countless cross-country races in the United States and won many championships. They are very famous in the Midwest. Frank Hopkin and Hidalgo were invited to participate in the desert cross-country race "Fire Fighting" held in Middle East Arabia. The "firefight" started in Saudi Arabia and ended in the Persian Gulf coast of Iraq. It takes six days to cross 3000 miles of uninhabited desert and next door. ...

Brief comments:

This is another legend of a real person and a real story. There are many things to see, such as cowboys, deserts, storms, cross-country ... aristocratic struggles, heroes saving America.

Viggo mortensen starred in "Aragon" in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, which was his first blockbuster after the success of The Lord of the Rings. Take off the "king of mankind" costume, put on the modern cowboy costume and gallop away. Soon, viggo mortensen will show the riding skills he learned from Argentines and experienced in The Lord of the Rings.

In fact, there is a clue to the return of the soul in the film, which may be more worthy of our slow aftertaste.

7. The Horse Whisperer.

Content introduction:

The story of the movie "The Horse Whisperer" unfolded in a sudden change. Anne, the editor of the magazine, has a successful career and a harmonious husband and wife. Living in a well-off middle-class family. However, an accident tore a crack in her almost "perfect" life. /kloc-Grace, a 0/3-year-old daughter, suffered a car accident while riding a bicycle and lost her right leg. And the horse named "Pilgrim" was also badly damaged. In order to save the horse's life and help her daughter out of the shadow of pain and regret, Anne found a "The Horse Whisperer" Mike who is good at "communicating" with horses. And resolutely dragged Grace and pilgrims to drive thousands of miles to Montana for medical treatment. ...

Brief comments:

"Sometimes, people are more eager for the destination of the soul than the real family."

Really excellent works simply disdain "grandstanding". Movies should not be marijuana, and a false pleasure makes people addicted to it. It's more like a glass of wine. It tastes bitter at first, but it feels mellow and sweet after careful tasting. Unlike most Hollywood movies, which use visual bombing to stimulate the adrenaline of the audience, this work by director robert redford tells a simple and almost plain story to the audience with prose-like narrative techniques.

This film is adapted from Nicholas Evans' novel of the same name. Novels and movies are masterpieces, needless to say.

8. All the beautiful horses.

Content introduction:

John and Leahy, two young people, lived in the declining western United States after World War II. They dream of a more productive cowboy life in the west. One night, they set off for Mexico to make a living. Lu Yu Bleven, a younger tramp, was suspected of stealing private horses. Under the protection of John and Leahy, Blevin came to Mexico to work for a rich farmer. There, the beautiful Ali Jandra, the farmer's daughter, secretly loves John. This threatens the friendship between John and Leahy. Later, the horse stealing incident sent three young people to prison. In prison, cowboys were tortured. Where will they go? See you at home? Where is the heart going?

Brief comments:

Speaking of horse movies, many people immediately think of American westerns, blockbusters and cowboy horses. As a genre film, American westerns are inseparable from cowboys and horses, so why introduce this "horse"? Because the film is called "Horse"!

In fact, this film is adapted from the novel of the same name by the famous American writer cormac mccarthy. As the first part of the Border Trilogy, it won the National Book Award and the American Critics Book Award. This novel describes the legendary adventure and mental journey of two new American cowboys during their wandering in Mexico after World War II. The novel shows the customs of the border area between the United States and Mexico in the middle of this century, the cowboy's life of horse training, love stories and thrilling experiences. The plot of this book is ups and downs, gripping, full of a special style and profound philosophy of life.

The Border Trilogy consists of Horse, Crossing and City on the Plain. These books are available on Dangdang. I wanted to read a book first, but DVD happened occasionally, so I got a sneak peek.

9. Paradise Grassland

Content introduction:

There is a faint mist floating on the grassland, and the sheep are moving forward like a big cloud on the undulating grassland. Lu Chao, the protagonist who just got out of prison, returned to Mongolian yurts with his six-year-old son Leopard. Pasturing horses, sheep and harmonious love finally made the lonely little leopard feel the affection of Lu Chao's family. The little leopard awakened the inner kindness and responsibility of the heroic Mongolian man, thus saving the family on the verge of collapse. ...

Brief comments:

I'm so excited to finally see China's movie!

This film is directed by Saif and Melis, famous Mongolian "directors and couples" who are good at shooting grassland movies. They directed domestic business cards, such as Sad Brooke, Genghis Khan, and Legend of the Hero's Return to the East (all business cards I have been looking for). Paradise Grassland shows the strange scenery and customs of the Mongolian plateau and reveals the simple and generous nature of the Mongolian nation.

At the same time, Paradise Grassland has a special significance in domestic movies, and it is the first domestic digital feature film in China.

10, Mongolian spirit (Cullen)

Content introduction:

Winner of the Venice Film Festival Golden Award and european film awards for Best Picture, directed by Russian director nikita mikhalkov. Funded by a French company, it was filmed in Mongolian steppe. Describe a truck driver in the Soviet Union who dozed off during a long drive and almost fell into the lake with his car. Fortunately, he was rescued by Mongolian youth to recuperate. Later, Mongolian youth sent the driver away, but it was difficult to buy condoms in the city. The whole film is full of fresh and natural atmosphere, and also vividly reflects the customs of Mongolia. There are some fragments in the film to explore the influence of western modern civilization on Mongolian traditional culture with surreal brushwork. Even Mongolian soldiers like Genghis Khan are helpless when facing Ranbo on TV.

Long products:

How vast the grassland is, how broad the Mongolian mind is, how bright the sky is, and how bright the Mongolian mother's heart is.

The Mongolian people on horseback in the endless Hulunbeier grassland in Inner Mongolia are simple and heroic, and the grassland is where they gallop. Gomba is with his wife, grandmother and three children. Gomba wants another one, but his wife knows that this is not allowed by the family planning policy. This incident made Gomba very depressed.

The plot of the film unfolds in the vast Mongolian grassland. They live a happy life without competition under the vast sky, especially the loving smile of the mother looking at the children, which makes us feel the kindness of the Mongols. Children in Gomba are naive when they see Sergei's tattoo, uncle Bayatu's grotesque expression on horseback, and Gomba's embarrassment in buying condoms in a drugstore. These details were keenly captured by mikhalkov, making the film more realistic.

There was a lack of information on the grassland, and their understanding of the outside world was sometimes limited to the pictures brought by Uncle Bayatou, until Sergei, a Russian truck driver who came to work in China, came to the pasture because of a nervous breakdown. His intervention gave the Gomba family a window to understand the world.

Slaughtering sheep is the highlight of the film, and different living customs make the two cultures collide, showing the hospitality and true colors of the Mongolian nation. Gomba slaughtered live sheep to entertain Sergei, but Sergei witnessed the slaughter process and felt extremely cruel and a little unacceptable. In fact, Mongolian men are more natural in natural selection. The director even used Boone to show the survival law of species by riding a lamb against a slaughtered sheep.

When Sergei and his family were having dinner, Gomba's daughter's organ performance reminded him of the joy of Russians. This brotherly gathering is the wealth of life.

The director added many cultural contrasts in the film, such as grassland and city, Chinese and Russian culture, past and present, idealism and existence. These analogies let us see the loss of heroism and root culture in the process of social development. The tattoo on Sergei's back is a lyric to praise the Russian hero. We will be moved by this spirit when he sings emotionally in the karaoke bar. He is not only singing, but also calling for idealism and heroism!

In order to get information from the outside world, Gomba bought a TV set for his wife. However, the director described the real theme he imagined with the hero lens in the sky corresponding to the TV without power supply. This is a memory of the ideal!

On the way home, Gomba had a dream about the Mongolian hero Genghis Khan. This surreal dream shows the greatness of the ancient generation, their ancestors Jin Ge Ma Tie, and their ancestors looked down on all lofty sentiments! These have disappeared in modern society, and modern civilization has given us comfort and made us lose our vitality!

Gomba, who woke up from his dream, spread his arms like an eagle on the grassland in late autumn, flying freely between heaven and earth, and the rainbow set off his figure. This freehand brushwork lens calls for the grandeur and strength of men.

The TV set has not changed much for their family. They don't even respond to everything on the TV. It is the protruding harness on the grassland that makes Gomba tempted. This is the driving force of life and the future. Therefore, he had a fourth child, named Temujin.

The chimney of the refinery was erected on the grassland, and the industry entered the calm grassland. For the descendants of Genghis Khan, I don't know whether it is joy or sorrow!

Although the plot of the film is very dull, we can still feel the spiritual world of the Mongols, who are open-minded about life and death, loyal and generous to their friends, and their eyes are full of simple and friendly smiles. Their smiles are like a red sun blooming in the journey of life. Such movies not only let us know about this nation on horseback, but more importantly, we feel the initial warmth from their smiles. The director gave Boone many close-ups and close-ups in the film. In this way, he made us feel the purity of our eyes and the clarity of our hearts. The simplicity of these long-lost city people shines in the eyes of a child. Maybe this is the meaning of Mongolian spirit!

The above words were written by others, and they were well written. I accepted them all. But, more importantly, this movie is good!

1 1, the story of crying GAMEL

Content introduction:

Spring came to this lonely desert in southern Mongolia, and a nomadic family ushered in the busiest period of camel calving in a year. A female camel suffered dystocia. With the help of the shepherd, she gave birth to a very rare white camel. The mother camel refused to accept the poor newborn and let it share her milk and maternal love. If this situation continues, this little camel will die. In order to save the camel, the shepherd sent his two children across the dangerous desert to find a musician. He is the only hope to save this little camel.

At the last moment, national instrumentalists were brought here. With his performance, a primitive ceremony to save the young camel began. With the melodious sound of Ma Touqin and a woman's love song, the female camel began to be gradually influenced. When the little camel was held to her again, it shed tears and began to save the dying baby with its own milk.

Brief comments:

Camels always have tears in their eyes. There is a legend in Mongolia that a camel once had a pair of beautiful horns, which were praised by the gods, but once borrowed by a deer, once borrowed, it never looked back. Since then, camels have been staring at the horizon every day, waiting for the deer to return. This calm and elegant documentary, with rich plots, was shot by Mongolian female directors, with beautiful natural scenery, including Gobi desert, wasteland, nomadic families and camel families, like an animal movie? But this is by no means the case. From the perspective of Mongolians, this film goes deep into Mongolian desert, is close to people's lives, and makes the life of camels and people meticulous and touching. ...

Why does a camel appear from the flock? Of course, camels are taller than horses ... by the way, aren't there people studying driving camels with one rein? Also, this movie won many awards!

12, dancing with wolves

Content introduction:

In order to find a new way of life, Civil War hero Captain Dunbar rode mathis Branch to the magical west. Major van Bure of Heisburg sent Dunbar to the most remote Severwick. Dunbar was deeply attracted by the grandeur of the grassland, and he decided to live alone in an unmanned post. However, due to the suicide of Major Van Bure and the killing of the driver by Indians, Dunbar became isolated.

Dunbar lives a quiet and monotonous life alone. This boundless sky, Yuan Ye, seems to be his paradise. Dunbar also made friends with a wolf with white front legs and named it "two white socks".

However, the quiet life did not last long, and Dunbar had contact with the Indian Sioux. Sioux people have been talking about Dunbar's arrival, and they are arguing about how to treat Dunbar.

Dunbar decided to take the initiative to find the Sioux. On the way, he saved a Sioux woman who wanted to commit suicide and "stood and danced and punched". She was originally white, but lost her relatives and was adopted by the Sioux since she was a child. After returning the "standing dance boxing" to the Sioux, Dunbar rode away.

Dunbar's visit greatly shocked the Sioux. Indian leaders unanimously agreed to pay a return visit to Dunbar. The next day, several Indians came to Dunbar station. In this way, the two sides began a slow and friendly contact. Gradually Dunbar became a friend of the Sioux, and he also had an Indian name called "Dancing with Wolves".

Dunbar's riding skills and marksmanship left a deep impression on Sioux people when hunting bison. He also saved an Indian boy. From then on, Dunbar moved into the Sioux camp and began to become one of them. At the same time, there is a sincere feeling between Dunbar and "Standing Dance Boxing".

When the vicious Pani attacked, Dunbar tried his best to distribute the guns and ammunition in the post to the Sioux to help them defeat the enemy. Dunbar became a Sioux hero again. All Sioux people worship Dunbar very much, and they wish Dunbar love and union with "standing dance boxing". Dunbar deeply realized the simplicity, kindness and friendliness of Indians, and he lived freely and happily among Sioux people. Dunbar is a complete Indian except for his skin color and appearance. However, just when Dunbar wanted to go to the post to retrieve his diary and live among the Indians forever, he found that a group of white soldiers had been stationed there. They shot Dunbar in Indian costumes. Mathis died and Dunbar became a prisoner.

Dunbar's defense of Indians attracted many insults and beatings. They identified Dunbar as a traitor. So Dunbar stopped speaking English and resolutely spoke Indian. The garrison major could do nothing, so he had to send a team of soldiers to escort Dunbar back to Hayes fortress. The Sioux discovered this situation. They destroyed the motorcade and rescued Dunbar.

When winter came, the Sioux settled down in the deep valley. In order not to bring trouble to Sioux friends, Dunbar declined to stay and left Sioux village with his wife "standing, dancing and boxing".

Eighteen years later, the Sioux were forced to sign an agreement with the government to give up their land passed down from generation to generation.

Appreciate:

Dancing with Wolves is the first film directed by kevin scott Werner. The film lasts for three hours and costs180,000 USD. It is a large-scale epic western film, with 3,500 bison, 300 horses, 130 technicians and 400 extras. It is also the first film with Indian subtitles in American film history. Kevin Slatner said: "What I want to show is the Indian experience at that time, and it is a history of indigenous people." He insists that the film must have Indian subtitles, and he is confident that this will inevitably arouse people's strong interest, concern and support. Sure enough, he succeeded.

At the premiere, he invited many Indians to watch the film. Three hours passed, and the applause in the cinema was thunderous and prolonged. Dancing with wolves has become an immortal western legend in the history of world movies with its unique perspective and connotation.

Dancing with Wolves was a blockbuster at the 63rd Academy Awards, with 12 nominations and the final award, which attracted worldwide attention. Kevin scott boldly adopted the western film style which has been ignored for more than ten years, and examined the complex themes of culture, history, race and equality from a brand-new perspective. The diversification of films has injected fresh and powerful vitality into western films. He revived a genre and achieved brilliant success.

Although the film adopts the legendary narrative story structure, what is different is that the film skillfully combines the realistic style with the romantic color and emotional appeal, which makes the whole film have gorgeous artistic charm. And the film also has a wonderful pen in shooting technology. It perfectly combines the rich historical and cultural atmosphere with the magnificent scenery of the western prairie. Rich photographic angles, clever dynamic rhythm and complex and excellent scene scheduling make the film achieve excellent visual effects. But the real success of the film should also be attributed to its profound theme connotation. With the end of World War II, humanitarianism has been mentioned in a considerable position in literature and art, and historical reflection has made the theme of war and the history of western development two major themes in movies. Dancing with wolves reflects the history and thinking of this western expansion, which is extremely difficult to grasp and express. People are paying more and more attention to the plight of Indians. This film is contrary to previous films, especially western films, which describe Indians as barbarians, and affirms the simplicity, sincerity and kindness of Indians. The film also puts forward the ideal that all ethnic groups should give up their struggle and live in peace, and embodies the freedom and beauty of this ideal with the harmonious coexistence of Dunbar people and Sioux people, playing the melody of friendship, equality and peace. These artistic successes finally made the film a brilliant victory in the Oscar competition.

Brief comments:

Epic blockbuster! I really dare not say more about this blockbuster. But I can't help but add a few words Sioux is a "nomadic tribe" of Indians, and it is a "primitive" nomadic tribe, because all their horses and horses ... make me very envious and sigh!

13, in

Content introduction:

Ben Xu's epic Ben Xu (1959) is a milestone in American film history. Ben Hur, which achieved great success in art and commerce, not only saved MGM film company which was on the verge of bankruptcy at that time, but also saved Hollywood film industry which was declining in the face of extremely severe challenges from television.

William? Xu Ben, directed by Wyler, focuses on the feud between Xu Ben, a Jew, and Mesala, a Roman officer, interspersed with stories about the birth and suffering of Jesus Christ. With this real and fictional plot line, it describes the story that Xu Ben, an ordinary person, became a hero through various twists and turns and finally found his own home and faith. The whole movie is full of twists and turns, and the scene is magnificent. The classic naval battle scene, which stimulates the grand carriage life-and-death contest, is even more amazing and relishes it. Xu Ben is undoubtedly the king of epic costume war movies in film history. This artistic and commercial film giant won 1 1 awards at the Academy Awards, making it the most award-winning film in Oscar history.

Xu Ben held this impressive record for 38 years before being tied by Titanic.

Brief comments:

Epic blockbuster! I dare say two things. First of all, there was a movie passion of the christ last year. I suggest combining it with Xu Ben. Secondly, Xu Ben has a spectacular carriage race, which is unique; There are wonderful descriptions of people and horses.
