Following in the thread of the Black Stallion movie. Did any of you hear anything about this movie when it was on circuit a coupla years back?
There was a magazine article on the movie and people where picketing
outside the movie houses due to the fact that some of the horses in the
movie had been shot to make scenes look more realistic. One scene was when the horse had to race down a steep incline and fall at the bottom,
apparently he was shot by a bloke with a rifle. Mind you I seem to think that the magazine said it was a mare.
The movie was filmed in Australia and possibly it was the sequel to the
movie that they wanted to prevent people watching because of the animal
abuse 'behind the scenes'.
I must truly admit that I am going on memory here but I know for a fact
that a horse or two was shot for a five minute film take.
Mind you I suppose some people see a horse no different to a buck but I couldn't shoot one of those either, I saw Bambi... :-)
