All AMPAS Members Can See War Horse Anywhere

Just announced – if you have a chance to see this film for free on the big screen you should do it in a heartbeat.  One of the film’s strengths is its ability to fill the big screen. Some of the shots simply can’t be appreciated on screener-TV.  With rave reviews from AO Scott at the New York Times, Ebert, Ann Hornaday at the Washington Post, Richard Brody the New Yorker, David Edelstein at New York Mag, Kenneth Turan at the LA Times.

Even without this freebie push, Disney is looking at a major Oscar player in War Horse. It will likely make bank and probably earn nominations in Picture, Director, Score, Art Direction, Editing, Sound, Sound Editing, Costumes – up in the air, Screenplay. If any actor from the film is nominated, watch out.

While most studios offer AMPAS and guild members the ability to go see a film two weeks after it opens at one of their local movie houses, Disney/DreamWorks has announced that they will allow ALL AMPAS and guild members nationwide to use their membership cards to see WAR HORSE in theatres beginning on the film’s opening day – December 25th – as the studio believes this film is truly meant to be seen on the big screen.
