@jangrewe No Jan. There is a possessive intimacy. Go to the cinema . Botn in New Zealand. Moved to Australia at 4, back at 14. I have lived in Australia 50+ years of my 62 years. Traveled the world & worked on every continent bar Antartica. Bottom line man, idiots are everywhere

@russellcrowe German here, it's "cinemas". PS: I'm sure your movie is great, but if there's any country that needs any more lessons about what happens if you let a fucking idiot run the country, it's not Germany (because we know already) - but rather our (former) friends across the pond.

Hello to my friends in Germany. This week Nuremberg opens in cinema’s. I hope you go and see it.

@MaryKayH188 @tizimmer @Mr_Husky1 George is deceased. I’m not sure when. I think I saw him last on the set of Les Miserables in 2012. He would have been 23 or so by then.

@russellcrowe @tizimmer @Mr_Husky1 I wonder what old George is up to these days…

Can a horse actually remember a person after an entire decade? If you ask Russell Crowe, the answer isn’t just a "yes"—it is a heartfelt "absolutely." The Hollywood star recently went public with a story that is melting hearts everywhere, proving that the bond between a human and an animal is much deeper than many people realize. It turns out that some friendships are simply too strong for time to erase. Back in the year 2000, Crowe was busy filming the legendary movie Gladiator. His partner through all those grueling battle scenes and dusty arenas was a noble horse named George. For months, the two worked side-by-side to bring the character of Maximus to life. They shared long days, intense physical demands, and the unique pressure of a massive film set. When the cameras stopped rolling, they went their separate ways, and ten years passed by without a single meeting. Fast forward to 2010. Crowe was on the set of Robin Hood when he noticed a familiar face—or rather, a familiar mane. Even though a decade had passed, Crowe recognized George immediately. Despite being assigned a different horse for this new movie, Crowe knew he had to go over and say hello to his old comrade. He had often wondered about animal memory, a topic he once discussed with fellow actor Liam Neeson. "I believe they do," Crowe said when talking about whether horses remember their past companions. "Animals have an extraordinary memory." He explained that horses aren't that different from dogs when it comes to loyalty. "With horses, it's the same, you create a bond with them that doesn't break." The reunion was nothing short of cinematic. As Crowe walked toward the horse, he didn't know if he would be met with a blank stare or a spark of recognition. He kept it simple. "When I got close to George, I greeted him with a 'Hello George'," Crowe recalled. What happened next blew everyone away. George didn't just stand there; he reacted with pure emotion. The horse lowered his head, walked up slowly, and leaned his entire body against Crowe’s chest. It wasn't just a random movement. It was a clear sign of comfort and recognition. "It was a unique moment," Crowe said. It was as if the last ten years had never happened. Standing there with his old friend, Crowe felt the need to share the good news of their past success. He leaned in and whispered a secret to the horse. "I then told him: 'We won an Oscar'." According to the actor, the horse’s response was so warm and genuine that it felt as if George truly understood the weight of what they had achieved together. This story is a powerful reminder of how sensitive horses really are. They don't just see us as riders; they read our tone of voice, our body language, and even the look in our eyes. They form memories based on trust and shared experiences. For George and Russell, those months on the Gladiator set created a "silent history" that stayed alive in the horse's mind for over 3,600 days. The bond between a human and an animal is built on a foundation of mutual respect. While we might move on to new jobs or new cities, the animals we treat with kindness never truly forget us. Crowe’s experience shows that love and loyalty are universal languages that don't require words to be understood. Kindness is a language that the deaf can hear, and the blind can see, and it is a memory that an animal will carry in its heart forever.

@tizimmer @Mr_Husky1 He already knew. That’s the punchline when I tell the story. I whispered that line to him and he indicated it was old news Haha He was a great horse old George. He’s the black horse I ride in the cavalry charge . He wasn’t in the arena as the story says

@Mr_Husky1 i mean telling the horse about the oscar is an all time move

@JacquAllen @Mr_Husky1 And, Hammers over the Anvil before that

@Mr_Husky1 Don’t forget @russellcrowe was in The Silver Brumby in 1993 - a wonderful film - and knew about horse communications long before Gladiator.

@Isolated02134 @Mr_Husky1 @janemutoli @grok It’s a true story when I tell it. This version is embellished and the visuals are not correct. Old George was the black horse on which I deliver the speech to the cavalry in the forest. The “ What we do in life …” speech . I only worked with George for the first 3-4 weeks.

@Mr_Husky1 @janemutoli @grok is this a true story?

Oh my GOD. I had no idea this @studiotstella poster even existed, and now I’m obsessed with finding one. This is one of my favorite films, this poster is absolutely beautiful, and I need one for @thedigitalbits theater. If anyone has a line on where they might be available, “Run up the colors!” as Jack Aubrey might say. #MasterandCommander
