Some 8,000,000 horses died during world war one, and this is the story of one, that touched the lives and hearts of every one he met, no matter their species. 

Based on a play that's based on a book by Micheal Morpurgo. 'War Horse' shows us why Mr Spielberg has been dubbed the Godfather of film with his classic approach to blockbuster film making. With a great cast of familiar faces Emily Watson, Peter Mullan and Benedict Cumberbatch (to name a few) as well as some new ones directed by a great, I'm sure we all know, that we are in for a treat. And it wouldn't be Spielberg without master film composer, John Williams doing the amazing orchestral music.

Hooray, but is going to be Horrid for Henry second time around?

Only the greatest players of all time have statues of themselves erected outside the stadium they graced; even fewer will go on to play a competitive game at the same ground; hence the hyperbole surrounding Thierry Henry’s goalscoring return to Arsenal last week. Having scored more goals (226 in total) than any player in the club’s history and having been part of a team that won the Double in 2002 and then went 49 games without defeat between May 2003 – October 2004 Henry is one of the greatest players Arsenal has ever seen and in an era when they were quite possibly the best team of a generation, undoubtedly the best team Arsenal have fielded in their 125 year history.
