At climax of this movie, Laura Alden (Michelle Pfeiffer) locks Will Randall (Jack Nicholson) in one of the horse stalls of the barn for his own safety. Stewart Swinton (James Spader), who is also becoming a wolf, finds Will, and a fight ensues --!which includes Laura, Will, and Stewart. The horses in their stalls react to all of this with restlessness and occasional rearing. To get the horses to appear agitated, a variety of methods were used. In all instances, trainers were in the stalls out of camera range. They were making noises, using cueing whips, and giving verbal commands. Trained rearing horses were used. Pigeons also fly about inside of and near the roof of the barn during this fight scene. To get the effect of the birds flying about the roof, a trainer opened a crate of pigeons at one side of the barn and the pigeons flew to another trainer who had an open crate containing food. This same technique was used to get birds to fly to and from different positions. The American Humane Society was on the set throughout and was aided in some New York filmimg locations by the A.S.P.C.A.
