Aravis Tarkheena [Narnia: The Horse and His Boy]

Another video on The Horse and His Boy, focusing on the character of Aravis Tarkheena. I again used Eva Green; please don't complain if she's not what you had in mind. I really don't have the time to deal with immaturity.

I don't own any of the pictures or music!

The entire title of the song didn't fit in the credits, it's "Night Ride Across the Cacausus" by Loreena McKennitt of the CD "Book of Secrets"

EDIT: Since so many people are asking questions, I'm including a few of the FAQs from the HAHB trailer that I made as a sister video to this one.

Isn't Aravis supposed to have darker skin?
Yes, she is. But as a nod to the Aravis fanlisting site, I am using the actress they have for the site's skins (themes), Eva Green. And you have to admit, those Kingdom of Heaven pictures fit pretty well. (I do understand she is way too old and not the right race, please stop "informing" me of this)

Why is Aravis so much older than Shasta?
Again, using Eva Green as a nod to the fanlisting. Alex Pettyfer is a British actor I found *after hours of searching for a young blond Brit who wasn't William Moseley* that I feel would be perfect for Shasta, if he weren't going to be too old by then. Again, I get that he's too old / the pictures don't fit, but it's very difficult finding someone for a fan video that is appropriate. Especially considering once (if) this movie is made, they'll cast unknowns anyway.

(2011 EDIT: I recently visited the site again, and they have reformatted to use art by J.W. Waterhouse, instead of Eva Green's shots from Kingdom of Heaven. There might have been a copyright issue, because now it's described as the "approved" fanlisting. If you are just now watching this video, you'll just have to take my word for it that they used Eva before.)

from my knowledge, Aravis is dark skinned. THHB has relations to the story of Moses. and moses's wife Zipphorah was dark skinned from ethiopia (in the Bible). So she does not fit at all age wise or not

@bebeth44 Read. The. Video. Information. PLEASE. (makes frustrated noise) I don't know how many times I have to REPEAT myself.

[Aravis17]

@bebeth44 Excuse me, the information I am talking about is in the video information for the Horse and His Boy trailer I made.

[bebeth44]

@Aravis17 No need to get angry........but I still don't quite understand what you mean by "I am using the actress they have for the site's skins"

[Aravis17]

@bebeth44 sorry I've just been asked / told this so many times it's getting really frustrating.

[Aravis17]

@bebeth44 Youtube isn't letting me paste the website...I'll add it to the video info.

[penguinsrepic]

aravis is my favourite narnia character. i can't waint for the horse and his boy movie

[EyraGarou]

I think she makes a perfect Aravis.

Now what about Hwin and Bree? :D

[underesteemed]

Aravis is the best.

I'd want to see more of Eva Green acting the part before I could go for her.

[TheJamesmonkey]

When (and if) they make the movie, they better make it like the book or I'll be really mad! Cuz The Horse and his Boy was my fav book so they better not change it!

[Narnianchick]

[TheOpensourceFTW]

[southcapefarm]

Nice choice of music and quotes and pictures! i.e. nice video, thanks :)

[selavie3]

she is embodied Aravis. 

[loveroflordofthering]

WHY does everyone put Eragon as Shasta and Eva Green as Aravis? I think that both of them dont fit the characters

[MyLifeIsJanky]
