Trailer - "War Horse"

Steven Spielbergs first live action film in three years has it's trailer debuting online. It looks as though the master has not last any of his sensibilities and if the trailer is any indication of the film, then it will it's fair share of stunning images. The only criticism of the film is that it just screams out 'GIMME AN OSCAR'. Going by it's release date smack bang in the middle of awards season shows that this is completely intentional. Hopefully the film will offer more than just Acadamy Award showboating and live up to Spielbergs past credits. It certainly ticks off requisite themes in the mans previous work: A boys inspirational bond with his only friend who happens to not be human, John Williams' rousing music, epic images and World War II. At least it can be said that what he does, he does exceptionally well. The film is released in Ireland on January 13th, 2012.
