1、The Shining Humanity in War Horse An excellent movie does not win by its magnificent scenes or by its expensive cost of production, but by the humanity it reflects. The movie, war horse, directed by Steven Spielberg is just the masterpiece that reflects the shining humanity. “War Horse” began in rur
2、al England where a teen named Albert befriended, tamed, and trained a horse he named Joey after his father bought him in an auction. Because of the owing money of the landlord, they eventually sold the horse to a member of the British military to take part in World War I. As a result, Albert is depr
3、essed, and he promised he would find Joey and reunite with him some day, even if he has to enlist as a soldier himself. The film then followed Joey through various experiences depicting the death and devastation that the war brought only were seeing it through a horses eyes. Yet everywhere Joey wind
4、s up, he finds someone with a kind heart who looks after him. This, to me, is the essence of the movie. At first, Joey was sold to Captain Nicholls, bur Albert was failed to join the army with Joey for he was too young to go to the front. But Nicholls promised that he would take good care of Joey, a
5、nd he draw a picture of Joey and sent it to Albert. Unfortunately, Nicholls died in battle and Joey was captured by the Germans along with his friend Topthorn. The head of the Germany army gave the order that all the horses should be killed. Luckily, with the intersession of two Germany brothers, th
6、ey survived. Not wanting his younger brother to go to the front and die there, the elder brother took him away to France along with the two horses. But unfortunately, the two brothers were found by the army and were killed. Next morning, French girl Emilie surprised to find the two horses in her hou
7、se. She and her grandpa tried their best to protect them even if their house was robbed, but eventually the two horses were still taken away by the Germany army. Again, Joey and Topthorn had to step onto the battlefield. Thankfully, the Germany hostler gave protection to the horses with all his forc
8、es, not wanting the excellent horses die from overwork, he changed another horse to drag the heavy cannon. When the Germany army was defeated, the kindhearted hostler let Joey go. Then, here comes to the climax of the film, which is also the most moving part. Joey tried to flee from the war, so he r
9、an wildly on the battlefield. However, he charged through barbed wire barricades that completely entangle him and fell to the ground. In danger of dying from his wounds, he is trapped in “no mans land” between the British and German trenches. Soldiers on both sides spot him, and are moved by the hor
10、ses plight. A British soldier named Colin risked his life and tried to rescue Joey, but then he lamented that he did not bring along gloves or something to cut the wire. At that moment, a German soldier appeared behind him holding out a pair of wire cutters, saying, “I thought perhaps you might need
11、 these.” Whereupon, a historically significant moment came when the two sides ceased fire. Without the smoke of the war, everyone held his breath, waiting for the successful rescue. At that moment, the safety of Joey touched the heart of each and every soldier, and it felt like the world were all pe
12、aceful. Albert and Joey reunited in the military hospital as if by a miracle. The war came to the end, and according to the rules, Joey should be auctioned off again. Alberts comrades pooled their money and encouraged Albert to buy Joey back. Emilies grandpa bought Joey with a high price of one hund
13、red poungs, but when he found that Albert is the real owner, he made the difficult decision to give it back. When I was watching the movie, I always worried about the safety of Joey, but luckily, he survived after so many sufferings. His survival is owing to the valiant Captain Nicholls, the two you
14、ng Germany soldiers, the lovely Franch girl Emilie and her grandpa, the warm-hearted hostler, also the kindhearted Colin and Peter. Joey was taken care and rescued time and again, which embodies the most precious thing of human beings, that is, the shining humanity. 。 In fact, War horse is not like
15、other anti-war films, which reveal the cruelty of war with blood and violence. It is a love story. Love gives power to both the boy and the horse to pull through all the misfortunes. Its love helps them negotiate barbed wires, trenches, bombs and gunfires. Its love creates miracles. The script keeps
16、 saying its a miraculous horse. Yes, its miraculous, cause the horse understands love and it knows to give back more. The horse is embodies with inexhaustible energy, pure beauty, love and loyalty, to the contrast of which is the brutality, atrocities of war. Some people criticize this movie for its meekness and idealization. However, this is exactly why I like it. Theres not only one way to express anti-war spirit. W
