Movies - Horse opera


Horse opera is a term for a western movie or TV series which either conveys disparagement or affection. It was originally coined by silent-era Western star William S. Hart
. The term was constructed by an analogy to soap opera, and tends to suggest that the movie or series is formulaic. Many western movies featured a singing cowboy, with many songs sung to his horse on-screen. This term, however, did not come to specify a well-defined subgenre of the western in the same way that space opera is of science fiction.
