“The Horse Didn’t Die” ITF Watch: The NeverEnding Story (1984 film)

Wolfgang Peterson traumatized scores of children with his
harrowing depiction of Atreyu losing his horse Artax in the Swamp
of Sadness, but is there any truth to the urban legend about the
real-life horse dying in the scene? No, but there is a lot you
might not know about what went into that iconic moment, which
included a dangerous close call to actor Noah Hathaway. In
episode 192, Luke & James relive their childhood with this
important 80s fantasy gem and try to recapture the magic.
Finally, is this adaptation superior to Michael Ende’s original
novel? They cast their votes to decide!
