i haven't watched this since i joined letterboxd (early 2017) which is A CRIME because this is actually my favourite movie ever. I cried 4 times only in the first half an hour (nostalgia?) and I'm still amazed by the range of emotions these horses show. also co-directed by a woman!! we stan!

although it's not the main point of the movie i really enjoyed the krakozhia lore and the very naturally progressing language acquisition of tom hanks. in the beginning it really felt like he couldn't understand any english and i'd assume they had some coach on eastern european mannerisms and such because small things such as saying "opa!" when someone falls and tugging at ur shirt to "spit" in it when you're jumpscared are such cute little details and they really constructed a nice character beyond the main themes of the movie.
