me: so, yeah, that horse…
feuilly: has sailed! oh, wait. i…i guess it’s in france right now, fighting in the trenches! like in war horse!
me: that horse is stuck in a barbed wire fence until it is gently removed by a painfully young german officer, still hanging on to the shreds of his innocence
feuilly: that officer was like 45 in the production i saw.
me: he had a baby face!
feuilly: he had kids at home!
me: they were twins! that he had at 18. you have to seize opportunities where you can –
feuilly: seriously he was middle-aged
me: oh shit!!! i mixed it up with ‘all quiet on the western front’. the characters in ‘all quiet on the western front’ are all young, right? this is like, my crossover of ‘war horse’ and ‘all quiet on the western front’ where the characters get a british horse.
feuilly: i mean, it could be?
me: there’s also my reverse crossover to that: ‘old german men and no horse’ but i couldn’t get that on broadway.
