    They’d likely have it in a darkened room instead. Horses don’t have radios so there’s no way to tune in to the audio.

      I’m pretty sure they had silent films throughout most, if not all, of the 19th century

          Horses not having radios is a tragedy no one should ever joke about. I don’t care how long ago it was. We’ve moved on from such foal nonsense and society’s put it’s hoof down. You either saddle up or bite the bit and accept your joke isn’t mane stream.
