Probably everyone who watches Yellowstone season one has their favourites, and characters they can’t stand. Costner can do something cold and ruthless one moment, then somehow still make you hope he succeeds. I’ve seen all of those characters before, but not in one performance. And he also delivers on the deadly powerful businessman who is physically crumbling. He gives you the man who will dive into a river to save a kid. He gives you the aging cowboy who will still get on a bucking bronc and do the ranch work himself. He told Entertainment Weekly, “I always felt that I would end up playing a laconic kind of Western character.” Well, laconic is John Dutton to a tee.Ĭostner is grizzled, stoic, and somehow at once worn down by life and intimidating AF. Kevin Costner is brilliant as the Dutton patriarch. Every single character in each episode is integral to the story. He doesn’t seem to have a good side, but that makes him a great nemesis and counterpart to Rainwater, whose loathing of the Duttons is driven by a respectable purpose.Īnd that’s just the biggest players. Dan Jenkins (Danny Huston) is a greedy capital developer who, like Rainwater, has eyes on Dutton’s land.

The Dutton family are hard, ruthless rich people who have all experienced and done horrible things. These aren’t adorably entitled rich people like on Schitt’s Creek. Yellowstone is a modern ranching show, and a political drama, and a rich family soap opera, AND an unflinching view of tensions between Native Americans and white people.

Hang onto your hats – for real, hats are a big f*cking deal on this show. It’s so deliciously dramatic, violent, thrilling, and downright messed up. Even though the episodes are long, you can’t stop. I watched the Yellowstone‘s entire first season in three days, then watched it again.
#YELLOWSTONE SEASON 1 SERIES#
But lo and behold, Costner was indeed staring down at me from the Yellowstone season 1 DVD set.Ī Western series with Kevin Costner?! HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS?! But at least I’m not like, 10 years late to the party, like I was with Deadwood. I was walking through a store and my fiancé goes, “is that Kevin Costner?” Now, usually he is so, so wrong about actors’ faces. Released: 2018 Mood: If you can’t decide between modern Western and political drama and sexy people being horrible and you want “D, all of the above” but with excellent acting and production. Starring: Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille, Gil Birmingham, Jefferson White, Danny Huston Director: Various
