Apparently, this scene in Generations exists solely for one reason: to entice Bill Shatner into doing the movie.
The writers were literally like “hey cool guy, we know you love horses and we really really need you to be happy so we added a beautiful scene of you and Patrick riding horses. No, it has nothing to do with the plot. How does that sound?”
And Shatner was pleased but he wanted to use his own horses. No big deal, right?
Well, he made Paramount RENT his own horses from him.
Absolute outstanding move, Shatman.

DAUMIER'S LAW
Paul: “I wanted to get into some minimalist music so I came to the studio and started trying to think of very simple pieces, based around the theme of injustice. .. I got intrigued by the idea of thinking ‘how few notes could I use, then?’ You start off thinking of just one note and then you embellish it a bit, trying to keep in the back of your mind to be as minimal as possible. And in the end I think I abondoned the idea of minimalism and just got into this slightly experimental music.”
Linda: “I got every book on Daumier and read all about his life and thought that it would be incredible to do a visual thing for Paul’s music. Daumier worked for a newspaper as a satirical cartoonist and went to prison a few times for his Art. A lot of his work was about injustice and it’s a theme that is so right for our times.”
Soon the two projects came together.
Geoff Dunbar: "Paul and Linda called and asked if I would like to make a film on Daumier and I said yes,”, “Before Rupert came along I had made a film on Toulouse-Lautrec so the Daumier idea was very exciting.”
“Paul did six pieces of music and they each had a title – Right, Wrong, Justice, Punishment, Payment, and Release. Then we pored through the works of Daumier, got everything that was available, and structured the story from the material. And where we had to link it we invented ‘in the style of’. We hung the story on one character, a man from one drawing by Daumier.”
The movie was premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in March 1992, and won the top prize at the British Academy Of Film And Television Arts in 1993. Paul & Linda are credited as co-writers and producers of the movie.

Potatooooo..I’m searching for this one Tumblr post where it’s talking about how Al for Hazbin hotel is aroace and people should stop  romanticizing him or something— and talking bad about the creator and the community— I have an aroace friend and they said to me that they can still love people like in special cases, romantic relationships, but I’m also like Al is asexual he’s not aroace in Cannon so—
I just wanted to look at the post again-
I'm not a search engine/t >:(
Eheheh I may have a clue what you're talking about, Maybe this?

Haunted through the lens of Morgwen
This song often makes me think of them especially with how dramatic the music is while I do enjoy sweet early season Morgwen this is very much when they’re relationship starts falling apart specifically like in The Eye of the Phoenix
You and I walk a fragile line. I have known it all this time But I never thought I'd live to see it break
Ever since Morgana came back from being captured she’s been on edge and Gwen is trying to be there for her in the best way she knows how, but she feels she’s not doing it right
It's getting dark and it's all too quiet And I can't trust anything now
Morgana lacks the trust in people she had before she met Morgouse
And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake. Oh, I'm holding my breath. Won't lose you again
Gwen having grown confused with Morgana’s actions hid behind the screen. But she realizes that was a mistake when she learns the secret of Morgana’s magic. She’s holding her breathe for both fear of being discovered and from the shock of the information. But she doesn’t want to lose Morgana again or admit that maybe this isn’t the Morgana she used to love
Something's made your eyes go cold
But Morgana has changed, her eyes are colder no longer filled with the same kindness.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this. I thought I had you figured out.
Gwen thought she understood Morgana after all her years working for her but the reveal of Magic changes things.
Something's gone terribly wrong. You're all I wanted
Magic has been equated with evil so Morgana having magic means something went wrong. All Gwen wanted was for her to be returned to them
Can't breathe whenever you're gone.
Gwen couldn’t live her normal life without Morgana there.
Can’t turn back now, I'm haunted
She can’t unsee what she saw or unlearn what she learned
Stood there and watched you walk away From everything we had
Gwen sees Morgana turn against Camelot
But I still mean every word I said to you
But Morgana promised that no harm would come to her if she chose to be on her side. And she meant it. She wanted Gwen to have a place in her kingdom (The Coming of Arthur)
He will try to take away my pain And he just might make me smile But the whole time I'm wishing he was you instead
Gwen ends up with Arthur. She thinks this marriage will make her happy.
Won't see you again
This is more of a hope then a true statement Gwen doesn’t want to have to face her past lover. Maybe she won’t have to face the fact that they’re in opposite sides if they don’t see each other.
You're not gone, you can't be gone, no
Morgana refuses to admit that she’s lost Gwen so she tries to get her back in the Dark Tower. If she can’t get her back through normal persuasion she’ll use magic
Something's gone terribly wrong Won't finish what you started
Despite all the magic used to control Gwen still manages to take part in freeing herself refusing to be a puppet
You and I walk a fragile line I have known it all this time Never ever thought I'd see it break. Never thought I'd see it
I know I already covered this line but now that we’ve gone through the whole story and song it has a new meaning. Season 1 Morgana and Gwen would have never thought that their relationship would break but now it has, it’s broken, there’s no going back to what they were. No more sweet gifts and actions. They have become enemies.
