What happens to Niedermayer after the end of the movie? What was the name of Niedermayer's horse? Bonus - what other 1970's movie did the same horse appear in?
he was shot and killed by his own troops in Vietnam. The horses name was Trooper or Junior and he was in the Black Stallion movie.
I posted this one today but it got buried in another post. ...what is the name of Sylvester Stallone's character in COP LAND ?
in the movie Se7en when David tells Tracy and Summerset, "he has to go check on the kids<" who is really referring too ? (obscure moment in the film) - when Brad Pitt chases Kevin Spacey through the apartment complex, Spacey's character has a limp like Spacey's other character Verbal Kint - Keyser Soze-when he gallops through an open floor, but yet doesn't have the limp at all when he runs or when he gives himself up to the Police at the Police Station. When Pitt is chasing Spacey-his character falls off a fire escape ladder in the rain and he falls into a pile of trash bags. Pitt holds his arm up injured and has it in a sling and bandaged afterwards. in the same chase scene, Pitt jumps on a car and slides off of it (not shown) in the movie and that's how he really broke his arm.
kevin spacey's name was left off the movie poster and opening credits for SE7EN so fans wouldn't know he was the killer. the killer's name is only referred to john doe. in the opening credits, they show spacey cutting the skin off his fingertips and wrapping them, so he couldn't leave fingerprints at his apt or crime scenes later in the movie. most never pick up on that.
I knew the gal that owned that horse. She'd rent horses, carts, covered wagons to the movie studios. I even got to pet him on the nose once. But he wouldn't give an autograph.
I read the horse cost the second highest amount of money over all actors but Belushi. Donald Sutherland lost out on $14 million dollars as he thought the movie wouldn't do so well, so he took his cut upfront - a staggering $25,000 for 3 days work vs a % of the total profit of the movie. Oops. I can't believe he made that much money back then. He's barely in the movie. $75,000 is a lot of money today vs 1978.
I never asked her how much she got paid for that. But the horse was trained to do a ton of tricks. I was told to never go in the stall with him. All that bucking and kicking he did in the movie ?? He was trained to do that. So if I went in the stall with him and made the wrong hand gesture... he may well kick the crap out of me. If you held your right hand up in front of his face with your index finger extended, he'd stick his tongue out at you. That was fun to do.
