We’re going to start with a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it early appearance, but it’s in one of the great modern westerns, and it marks his entrance into Hollywood. Elliott was 25 when he landed the role of Card Player #2 in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The card game itself doesn’t last long, ending with another player accusing Butch of cheating, ...
In 1995, Elliott tackled the role of Wild Bill Hickok in the hit adaptation of a Larry McMurtry novel, told from the point of view of Calamity Jane as played by Anjelica Huston. Buffalo Girlswas a two part miniseries, and ended up being nominated for a ton of TV awards, including both an Emmy and Golden Globe nod for Elliott’s portrayal of the lege...
Elliott tackled another TV adaptation, this time from a Louis L’Amour novel, in 1987 with The Quick and the Dead (no, not that The Quick and the Dead.) He played Con Vallian, who shows up on the scene to save Duncan McKaskel, his wife, and son, who are striking out into the Wyoming Territory in 1876. Vallian is chasing a mixed-race Native American ...
Many critics have compared the Coen brothers’ 1998 cult classic The Big Lebowski to a western in terms of structure: a likable anti-hero struggling against seemingly insurmountable odds with little but his wits and a motley gang of fellow outlaws. And of course, Elliott as The Stranger, introducing and closing the film with his signature gravelly n...
This 1986 made-for-TV film is undeniably a Western. Elliott stars as Sam Houston, and the biopic focuses on the years he served as governor of Tennessee, through to the years when he joined the Texas Revolution and became the President of Texas. As usual, Elliott had the perfect mustache for the role, but the film came under criticism for historica...
In 1994, Elliott leant his talents (and his mustache) to the TNT film The Desperate Trail, starring as a Marshal tasked with transporting a very attractive murderess, played by '90s screen siren Linda Fiorentino. He’s escorting her to her hanging; her crime? Killing his son. Don’t let that sway you to sympathy, though, Elliott’s Marshal has a dark ...
For something completely different, we have The Ranch, a sitcom that ran on Netflix from 2016 to 2020. It co-starred That '70s Showalumni Ashton Kutcher and Danny Masterson (who was written out as a character in 2017 following numerous sexual assault allegations) as brothers working on their parents’ Colorado cattle ranch, with the parents being pl...
Again, we know, not precisely what you would classify as a western. But c’mon, it starts out with a deal with the Devil. What’s more Western than that? Elliott seems to have walked straight off the set of a Sergio Leone film: we first meet The Caretaker in a cemetery, wearing a grubby Henley shirt under a grubby vest and a grubby bandana, a mashed-...
Patrick Swayze was supposedly the main draw in this 1989 action film that is highly tinged with western. Swayze plays a tough-as-nails nightclub bouncer from New York who ends up in a small town trying to protect the local dive bar, The Double Deuce, from a slimy businessman who already controls most of the town. To effectively sharpen up the Doubl...
The gunfight at the OK Corral happened twice within six months in the 1990s, with the release of Wyatt Earp in 1994, half a year after the objectively superior Tombstone. The George P. Kosmatos film starred Kurt Russell as Wyatt Earp, Sam Elliott as his brother Virgil, and the late Bill Paxton as their brother Morgan, versus the 1994 cast of Kevin ...
