Reproduce 2 quotes from the movie War Horse. For each quote name the author and geographical location of the scene. Explain why that quote is important.

His whistle imitated the stuttering of an owl—it was a call I never refused, and would never forget.
Joey, page 8

Albert and Joey had an instantaneous bond; their connection was the reason that Albert joined the army in the first place, enlisting early in order to go to France and find his equine soul mate. Although Joey had the coloring and markings that Albert constantly referred to, it was not until he reacted to the owl-like whistle that Albert realized he had indeed found his horse again. Upon rereading, it becomes clear that this early reference to the owl call sets the stage for one of the crucial, climactic scenes of War Horse.

Captain Nicholls and Captain Stewart were rarely apart. They seemed somehow separate in spirit from their fellow officers.
Joey, page 44

Joey observed that there was false jollity among the majority of the soldiers and that they seemed to believe that the war would be over quickly. Both Captain Nicholls and Captain Stewart, however, were more cerebral and understood the futility of what they were being asked to do. They did not sympathize with the troops' excitement about getting to the battlefield because they realized that they were killing men similar to themselves, not the men who had actually started the war. As Joey's perceptions indicate, the spirits of these two leaders were more filled with fear and apprehension than with enthusiasm and adrenaline.
