Winner of Olivier, Evening Standard and Critics' Circle Awards, it has captured the hearts and minds of everyone that goes to see it; children and adults alike. Phil Grabsky and David Bickerstaff have been invited by the National Theatre to film the intricate process of putting on this extraordinary production, as it makes its way from the National Theatre to the West End and beyond. With exclusive access to the actors who work these astonishing life-sized puppets, we learn exactly how the internationally renowned Handspring Puppet Company make these animals come to life. Throughout the film, director and creator, Michael Morpurgo gives us candid insights into his inspiration for this production as we film him at his home in Devon, surrounded by the fields that he drew his creativity from. This film will be more than just a behind-the-scenes documentary; it will be visually stunning and shot entirely in HD, will bring the magic of this extraordinary puppetry to the big screen. Phil Grabsky and David Bickerstaff's filming style is poetic and delves beyond the surface, revealing the passion and determination involved to make this production the success that it is. Review: War Horse - As soon as I found this on desertcart I ordered it immediately. I also ordered the live action movie. I went to the Lowry Theatre in Liverpool to see the show. I went with my local visually impaired group. We went backstage to see the costumes and puppets. I got to meet Joey and his puppeteers. One thing that stood out was that you don't notice the puppeteers. Joey and the others horses are so realistic. The puppeteers are absolutely amazing. This is why I bought this dvd. Because I loved the show and wanted to learn even more. I think everybody should go to the theatre to watch the show. You really do think Joey is a real horse and you genuinely don't notice the puppeteers. I cried watching it too. Review: War Horse - making of - I live in London but not keen on west end shows but recently saw War Horse at the new London theatre after being highly recommended. Hubby + I just loved it + both cried liked the rest of the audience, so very moving. If you visit London to see one show this is just a huge must. The documentary has lots of info, interviews with the puppet makers, the cast + the man who wrote the book the play was based on. After watching bought another for mum in law who has also seen + loved ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002QW7J6S | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 - 1.77:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | 39,528 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 428 in Special Interest 1,661 in Documentary (DVD & Blu-ray) 9,004 in Television (DVD & Blu-ray) | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (123) | | Director | David Bickerstaff, Phil Grabsky | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 5065001662003 | | Language | English | | Media Format | PAL | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 1.45 x 19.08 x 13.64 cm; 77.11 g | | Rated | Exempt | | Release date | 16 Nov. 2009 | | Run time | 1 hour and 59 minutes | | Studio | National Theatre/ Seventh Art Productions | | Subtitles: | English | ## Images ![Making War Horse - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j1rBJZOJL.jpg) ![Making War Horse - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-SvrRJ29L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ War Horse *by D***E on 3 December 2017* As soon as I found this on Amazon I ordered it immediately.

Seems impossible to get which is a great pity as this was an astonishingly great and loving performance! Making the War Horse could only give an idea of the phantastic experience of War Horse, the NT work! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/51162420-making-war-horse](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/51162420-making-war-horse) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-15*
