With the exception of the overlooked Young Adult and Martha Marcy May Marlene everything seems pretty much in order this week. Chronicle goes straight in at number one, Journey 2: The Mysterious Island pulling in the family audience and Jack and Jill gaining a well deserved and generous haul of almost a million pounds. Wait, [...]
It’s been a more successful week than I thought. But only just. There’s been highs (The Descendants), lows (Like Crazy) and The Grey did so okay for itself that I’ll hardly mention it throughout. Yes it’s been an entirely average week at the box-office, so set your sights low and read on, because d’you know [...]
Well it’s awards season again and thus this week’s top ten is an entirely polarising affair. We’ve got the great and the good of awards season doing well for themselves but it’s the shouty, awards hungry, For Your Consideration! failures that litter the outskirts of the chart that are the real news this week. But [...]
Last night the building site in central London that used to be Leicester Square was restored temporarily to its former glory for the premiere of War Horse.

I’m in the hot seat today getting ready to live blog the War Horse UK press conference. Those expected to attend include Director Steven Spielberg, Producer Kathy Kennedy, and cast members Michael Morpurgo, Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch and David Thewlis. I have my laptop here ready to go and all you [...]
This evening, London Town was the host for the Royal UK Premiere of Steven Spielberg’s new movie, War Horse. What made it even more special was that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (or William and Kate to their friends) were in attendance. Joining them was the legendary director himself accompanied by the main star [...]
If ever a film was openly seeking Oscar recognition, it’s Steven Spielberg’s latest solemn contender, War Horse, coming hot off the heels of his recent fun family adventure, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn. No stranger to evoking emotions when he so desires in his dramatic cinematic offerings that include Schindler’s List, [...]
War Horse, Steven Spielberg’s latest tearjerker, is out in UK cinemas early in January next year but a few screenings have already taken place and in New York last month the director sat down to answer questions on the film and his career in general. Entertainment Weekly columnist and contributing editor at New York Magazine [...]
While a solid serving of Equine induced sniffles may be denied to us here in the UK on Christmas Day Steven Spielberg’s second film of the year enters cinemas across the pond in a couple of weeks and there’s a new clip available if you’re currently fence-straddled. This new clip is introduced by Jeremy Irvine [...]
Dreamworks have released three new TV spots for their new movie, War Horse which is released 13th January. It stars Benedict Cumberbatch, David Thewlis, Tom Hiddleston, Emily Watson, David Kross, Peter Mullan, Eddie Marsan but from all I’ve seen so far, the real star is the horse which isn’t surprising considering the title. DreamWorks Pictures’ [...]
Spielberg seems to be trying another of his “one for the Oscars, one for the multiplex” years, much like 1993′s double-whamy of Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park. That worked out rather well for him, yielding what was then the highest ever grossing film at the box office (supplanting his own ET after some 11 years) [...]

We’ve just been sent the first poster for Steven Spielberg’s latest film, War Horse, and we thought we’d share it with you. With Spielberg directing his version of Michael Morpurgo’s novel, itself already well-known as a stage play, we can expect a severe heartstring-tugging in amongst all the horseplay. The non-equine cast looks pretty solid [...]
Dreamworks have just released the first trailer for Steven Spielberg’s highly anticipated film War Horse. Just over a year ago it was announced that Spielberg would be directing the big screen adaptation of Michael Morpurgo’s novel which is perhaps more familiar to audiences in its incarnation as the widly successful play. All we’ve seen so [...]
We wait for a good long while to see something from Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of the celebrated novel and play War Horse, and we get one image, posted previously, and then a few hours later, four more trot into the arena, and these are something special.

As the long road continues to the release of Steven Spielberg’s first real film since 2008, that Indy movie that everyone loved, we can now offer up some more details regarding the plot of the film. It is no secret that War Horse is an adaptation of Michael Morpurgo’s children’s book but we never knew 100% for sure if [...]
Michael Morpurgo, author of top selling book War Horse, was at Wimbledon Book Festival this morning along with legendary actress Virginia McKenna and mentioned that this week he’d been down on the set of the film of that book which Steven Spielberg is directing.
