A Week With WAR HORSE
On release in the UK from January 13th the Stephen Spielberg blockbuster War Horse looks set to be a huge hit. When you go and see it there is a chance you just might spot a familiar face in some of the early crowd scenes. These were filmed in the village of Castle Combe back in October 2010 when the Dream Works team of technicians, hundreds of extras and about 30 horses took over the Wiltshire village.
Grenville Jones was one of the people contacted when DreamWorks team were looking to recruit extras. “ We are filming in Castle Combe and need extras. We understand that you are the best person to help us as you know lots of people through your many choirs ?” That was how it started, says Grenville. So look out for some of the men and ladies who sing in Genville's choirs in those War Horse early scenes:
Jenny McKim, Trevor Brice, Laurie Jones, Chris Beezley and others. Our picture in the Castle Combe Churchyard shows all of Grenville's ladies with Mr Spielberg himself.
