Actually, I'd think so as well Posey, but I find it a bit harder to imagine the ponies using expressionism to try and more fully explore the darker aspects of their life and condition when their lives by and large seem rather idyllic.
Thank you Keg, I seem to remember you giving me some recommendations before that I rather enjoyed, so I've high hopes for the three you just suggested.

I can see your point. Perhaps it could be in a post-Romanticism Equestria that focuses more on analysis and deconstruction after some sort of great calamity.

You talking about Post-Unification or Post-Discord Equestria? I suspect there was a significant timegap inbetween both events.
Very disconcerting out of context

That could work, should they have the technology and the interest to make "movies".

Thanks JT.
It seems my mind ran off and left my fingers behind for a moment there. It's been fixed though.
Now I'm imagining The Bicycle Thief or The Night of the Shooting Stars as interpreted by an Equestrian director.

I suspect it was only after Discord that the true age of Harmony began, and that there was a time period where the relations between the Three Tribes wasn't so good until after Discord wreaked havoc. Honestly I suspect the worst he was remembered for was reshuffling the races of all the ponies so no-one could remember which of the Three Tribes they belonged to. Ironically his meddling as such would have destroyed the last vestiges of outright hostile friction between the old-fashioned hardliners of the Three Tribes.

My personal headcanon is that Discord indirectly caused the unification of the three pony tribes, or was already defeated by the time that they united. It's all part of this fic I keep trying to write...

I think it's part of it, certainly. I could definitely see them uniting against Discord, and then when Celestia and Luna showed up the tribes were more willing to submit to their authority.

Or they were split on the issue and started another civil war, so Celestia and Luna had to clear it all up...

The first film ever made was a 4-hour spectacular about the strife between the three tribes before the unification. Of course, star-crossed lovers on all sides would be prominent throughout. The film would also be a unwavering condemnation of social stratification. Additional, as to not alienate anyone there would be a screwball comedy subplot involving the historian responsible for documenting the conflict in the first place and her trusty assistant.
That is incredible.

Nah, I'm not that good with puns.
I need to find a book of equine termonology, that should help.

Even with a book about equine terminology, I'd still suck at puns.

Including speculation about what Equestrian cinema is like. For my part in the rambling, at least.
