Reacting to SILVERADO (1985) | Movie Reaction - Zábava
This movie IS the reason why Kevin Kline was in "A Fish Called Wanda". Kevin Kline got to know and befriend John Cleese during the filming of "Silverado". Kline had nothing but the highest praise for Cleese, his wit, and his professionalism. John Cleese decided he wanted to do a movie with his 3 friends (Michael Palin, Kevin Kline, Jamie Lee Curtis) so he wrote "A Fish Called Wanda".
A Fish Called Wanda - My favorite comedy ever!
A Fish Called Wanda. What a fantastic film. As was this film. I can't say it's the best. I think there are 7 or 8 that just a tie.
I loved him in "The Emperor's Club"!
Thanks for this backstory
Loved him in The Big Chill 😊
The "tiny" woman is Linda Hunt. She won an academy award for a really great film 'The Year of Living Dangerously.'
Unforgiven, Tombstone, The Quick and the Dead, Open Range and Appalooosa
Excellent list. The Quick and the Dead is kinda silly, but fun.
Also Quigley Down Under, starring Tom Selleck, and The Proposition, also a western set in Australia.
Also good choices.
And Once Upon a Time in the West.
@jackbrooks5487 I can't believe I forgot about Quigley. That's also one of the great villain performances by Alan Rickman, along with Die Hard and Robin Hood.
The man playing Kevin Costner's and Scott Glenn's brother-in-law is Earl Hindman. He plays the neighbor on "Home Improvement."
Henry rifles were the first "mass produced" lever action repeating rifle.
Tyler Henry was the gunsmith. Oliver Winchester was the money man who made his initial fortune manufacturing men's shirts. After the success of the Henry rifle, Winchester decided he wanted his name on all the future products even though Henry remained the chief designer.
The Henry rifle was made from 1860 to 1866 be the New Haven Arms Company. Oliver Winchester bought the company and renamed it the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. The Henry evolved into the Model 1866 Winchester. The 1866 Winchester was nicknamed the "yellow boy" because of the brass/bronze alloy receiver. The model 1873 was an improved design with a steel receiver and improved magazine design.
The Henry rifle wasn't patented until 1862. In 1861 the Spencer rifle was being purchased by the US Navy's first order of 700 weapons. Very soon cavalry officers wanted a look at the Spencer for their troopers. The Henry was a little bit behind Spencer and it wasn't as readily accepted in field trials. Mostly due to the open slot on the magazine tube and no handguard.
If you look closely at Glover’s rifle, you’ll see it not a Henry. It’s a brass receiver Winchester with the forearm removed.
@@McPh1741 Yes, the father's rifle is a true Henry, but Gover's is an 1866 Winchester modified to look like a Henry.
Another super reaction. The writer and director was Lawerence Kasdan. He grew up loving Westerns and was tired of the revisionist ones of the day that made fun of heroes and applauded the villains. This was his honoring of the American western. It has everything….shot outs, good guys, bad guys, wagon trains, etc. You know the good guys and bad guys quickly with the action that every kid wanted. This was not a favorite with the critics or the alleged intelligence community of thinkers. But every fan of Westerns and fun entertainment loves Silverado.
Thank you for so eloquently expressing the brilliance of this movie. It truly does pay tribute and a homage to the older western classics. Most of the tropes are in this film, from settlers, cattle rustlers, miners, gamblers, outlaws, etc.
Dawn is way too young to have seen the movie critics Gene Siskel & Roger Ebert (and I doubt they were ever broadcast in bonnie Scotland), but here is their review upon the movie's release. Ebert was more enthusiastic than Siskel, but they both gave it their iconic thumbs up score. These guys were probably the last critics I trusted and they frequently clashed with each other, which made their PBS and then syndicated show so much fun to watch. czcams.com/video/fUXbSjgYJKo/video.htmlsi=DcuCvffyHzOvsPBO
This horse 🐴 loves me. Classic line.
the 'bay' is the color of his horse. Brown with black points.
"Somebody bet on the bay!"
In Spain bay is a yellowish white horse. Different in America but I think it is a single color, not with spots.
@@BigSleepyOx "Camptown Races" is still a banger today!
the bad sheriff from Rambo
Brian Dennehy was his name.
I like the part where the group was singing the song under the boardwalk and his character said damned Drifters are back in town again.
@@clarencewalker3925 yes, my mum loved him in Rambo
Tombstone 1993 is a great more modern Western, Kevin Costner has just done 'Horizon: An American Saga' so, Westerns are still being made.
The Dead Don't Hurt is in the cinemas now
@@StephenDouthart Yes, I'd forgotten that one.
Hell he also done the Wyatt Earp movie 1994.
@@jefferywarburton2116 Another great film.
Tombstone was kurt Russell , val Kilmer, ect..
Cossner was in wyatt Earp.
Cossner one was more. Life and times of wyatt Earp.
Both good. Imho
Good one, Dawn! I saw this in a packed theater in Dallas, TX the weekend it opened, and when the smoke cleared after that opening shoot out scene, one guy in the audience shouted out "What a way to start a movie!" and the whole theater erupted in cheers, LOL! Thanks for sharing this one. 🙂 Loving Western Week!
Dances With Wolves is a must watch.
You know the MARX BROS made a western …GO WEST!
Good call!
One of the best ensemble westerns ever. The lead and supporting cast is amazing. Your love of westerns is awesome as well. I hope you give the Tom Selleck western "Quigley Down Under" consideration. It's set in 1860s Australia. Some other great westerns:
The Professionals (1966) Ensemble western starring Lee Marvin
Hostiles (2017) starring Christian Bale
City Slickers (1991) Comedy western starring Billy Crystal
The Highwaymen (2019) Starring Kevin Costner, Story of the Texas Ranger hunted down Bonnie and Clyde.
Craigslist one of the best movies they've had in a long time
Quigley, absolutely.
@@richardsanchez9073 Reactors who have done Quigley had to blur out the Rifle in order to pass YT muster, rendering the entire Reaction a bloody mess and unwatchable.
if you like a good movie with a horse name, I would say "Hidalgo"...about a mustang horse going to Arabia for a race and the cowboy is Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn from Lord of the Rings)
I found that movie disappointingly slow and mediocre.
@@randallwilliamson3838 then you weren’t watching the same movie as the rest of us.
@@gawainethefirst the rest of us? Clearly it isnt a popular movie so the minority of you.
The devil stars in that movie.
@@Wayne-745 from "Prophecy" lol
I just watched one called "Old Henry" (2021). It's one of those rare modern Westerns that is done extremely well.
They built the town of Silverado out in the New Mexico desert for this movie. The set then got re-used, burnt down, rebuilt, destroyed again several times. A recent time it got blown up was in the MCU _Thor_ movie.
Glad you liked this. Silverado is probably my 2nd favorite western. The dialogue is so good.
This is in my top 10 westerns of all time. I absolutely love every single thing about this movie.👍
One of the Best modern Westerns.
Early Kevin Costner. Early Kevin Kline. Early Jeff Goldblum.
The team really comes together.
Calvin Klein? Are you sure?
@@philipabelanet5476 thanks for the catch. Mic text to chat doesn't always catch everything correctly. And I probably Calvin Klein.
LoL
@@3Kings_Industries LoL
*Goldblum
5 or 10 years later they could not have afforded the cast!
You're ready for "Lonesome Dove"
Just look at those magnificent landscapes!
And that musical score.
Gorgeous!
You should react to My Name Is Nobody 1973 a funny western.
Support your local sherriff
Gun fighter is just as good
This is one of my favorite movies. Fantastic cast. Fantastic acting. Fantastic scenery. Watched this when I was a kid…and probably 30 more times since.
“You know….hangin around with you is no fun.”
One of my absolute favorites!!!
If you haven't yet seen "Open Range" you should watch it back to back with "Silverado" for contrasting ages of Kevin Costner.
Henry Sold his Patern to Winchester after Henry made the 1873 Model.... Winchester 1873
I wish I could post a standing ovation. This Western lineup was well done. You saw a nice number of classics to get you ready for this fun tribute. The All Star cast is impressive, but it's Linda Hunt that steals my the movie and my heart.
Fantastic week!
Fantastic selection this one is! It feels like eons ago I tried screaming this flick atcha, lol, and trying to entice you by saying John Cleese is in a western(!).
Now you really have to do 2014's A Million Ways To Die In The West 😂😂😂
DM connsidering an 80s film to be "newer" goes to show how refined her Western palate has gotten.
Around this time in American history a Henry repeating rifle was revolutionary. Most rifles only held about five bullets. A Henry repeating rifle held 15. And was very accurate.
And yes, the Henry rifle was the basis for the legendary Winchester rifle.
Better One Darlin!
This is another "Best Movie Ever" guaranteed!!! Great film!!!
Is that a Winchester rifle? No, its a Henry's rifle. Remember he said, heney rifle in the hands of someone who can use it! Scott Glenn was shooting these cans for real! He is one of best gun men in Hollywood! Scott did a climbing movie about father/son/daughter climbing team. where he got into "free ice climbing"! He's quite the athlete! And you might smile at his frieng tight leather pants!
Deputy: "They won't be out of our jurisdiction until they've passed Flat Top."
*POWW!*
Sheriff: "Today my jurisdiction ends *Here!* Pick up my hat."
Do not forget, "Ox-Bow Incident!" And someday, someday, "How the West Was Won!" You get to see James Stewart, Henry Fonda, John Wayne, Gregory Peck, and many other of your favorite actors.
Scott Glenn, Kevin Kline, Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, John Cleese, Brian Dennehy, Rosanna Arquette, Jeff Goldblum, and Linda Hunt. Quite a cast, quite a movie.
Another "modern" western you should watch is "Maverick"
the old tv show with james garner was better
@@alabamahellbilly6731 Yes it was, but movie "Maverick" is a very good stand alone farce with Mel Gibson and James Garner in it. Earlier comedy westerns with James Garner, "Support Your Local Sherriff" and "Support Your Local Gunfighter" are both her type.
Yes, that Mel Gibson, James Garner and Jodie Foster movie is great. It is lighter than Silverado, but it is fun.
Dawn no one has reviewed " Hostiles " yet! Good western! Thank you for doing " Silverado "!
I forget the details, but a Henry rifle is a model of a Winchester. Made by Winchester and named Henry after the guy that worked for Winchester and designed/created that particular model of rifle, and probably a lot of others.
WOW! When you said this was the newest Western you've seen I had to search your channel to find out you have NEVER SEEN TOMBSTONE ⁉️⁉️ Well I hope and pray it's movie #7 then all your expectations will have been satisfyingly met!! Great Reaction Again!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Silverado (1985) is now one of my all-time favorite Westerns. I own the 1999 Collector's Edition DVD in both 1.85:1 open matte & 2.39:1 letterboxed widescreen formats. This is one movie that I would definitely suggest to Addie Counts. #SilveradoForAddieCounts
John Cleese and Kevin Kline are always a successful recipe.
This is a good'un. I think you will enjoy it. I predict this will be an excellent reaction, as usual.
"What's a man normally want?" Ummm....
It's funny that Kevin Kline and John Cleese are both in this, considering how much it isn't like A Fish Called Wanda 🤣
This is my favorite modern western, great ensemble of actors in this and fantastic music
Benjamin Tyler Henry invented the Henry rifle, which was the first rifle sold by Winchester Repeating Arms.
The look and sound of this movie reminds me a lot of _Raiders of the Lost Ark_ and I like to think of it as a Western that just so happened to occur several decades before Indiana Jones started his adventuring in the very same universe.
3:03 They used actual gold coins in that day for currency. Judging by the size of that coin, it was a five-dollar gold piece called a 'half-eagle' (an 'eagle' was a unit of currency amounting to ten dollars). A five-dollar coin in that day is something like a hundred dollars today, enough for a modest set of clothes-- or a used gun.
My favorite western as a child and still to this day. 100% holds up
I recommend Hildago. A hidden gem from 2004. Best horse movie since Black Beauty. This is a western with a twist (most of it takes place in Arabia). Very underrated.
not underrated, few people liked it.
"Silverado" 1985, was the trigger for what I call the Neo-Western. Westerns dominated American Cinema for nearly 50 years, then in the early 1970's fell out of favor and very few were made. While no longer dominant, Westerns are again a regular part of American Cinema.
Wonderful Reaction Dawn Marie! Let tell back in the early 80’s we were dying for Western Movies! In 1982 we got an Australian Western
Man From Snowy River! I lived in Austin at the time and the little theatre only about 5 people were there watching it! Then in 1985 we got Silverado and Pale Rider I was on cloud 9! Looking forward for tomorrow’s surprise! Yee Haw 🤠!
When this came out, it had been a long time since Hollywood made a western. I think a lot of people thought the genre was too old fashioned and wouldn't sell anymore. They were wrong. People loved it!
B. Tyler Henry was the head designer for the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. The first rifle marketed by Winchester was called the Henry Rifle. Later Winchesters, up to the 1876 model (including the Winchester '73) were developed from the 1860 Henry, until John Browning came to work for Winchester, and designed the shotgun and rifle models from 1886 to 1897.
Lawrence Kasdan who wrote and directed this was co-writer on four of the first six Star Wars movies. He also directed the movie "The Big Chill" which also starred Kevin Kline and Kevin Costner, but 99.9% of Costners role was cut so Lawrence wrote the part of Jake for him.
I hope in the future you'll watch the remake of "3:10 to Yuma" with Christian Bale and Russell Crowe.
The western had petered off and this was one of the first modern ones that brought about a resurgence. I was little growing up on westerns and The Lone Ranger and Hopalong Cassidy reruns on public tv and so when this came out after years of mainly just reruns it was such a breath of fresh air. Dances with Wolves came out a few years later and then we got a boom in the 90s with Tombstone and a bunch of other movies. but for the longest time in the 80s you really didnt see movie westerns. This one you can't help but love it has all a western should have.
My favorite western. And what a cast!
B T Henry worked for Winchester in the 1850s when he developed the "volcanic" into a smooth lever action rifle. It was a Henry until Winchester reorganized, and model 1866 was born. The next change was the 1873.
Since there are thousands of westerns, you might see some of these faces on the screen. Even the Marx Bros.
Impressive string of winners, Dawn. Keep 'em coming.
You should really watch 1982's "Barbarosa". One of the best westerns ever made but today it's almost completely forgotten. Starring Willy Nelson in the role of his life and an unbelievably young Gary Busey.
I remember seeing the trailer for this before it opened. As soon as they showed the clip of John Cleese saying "what's all this, then", I was hooked. ( And who doesn't love a million cows? )
Kevin Costner was to have been in The Big Chill but he was cut out. Director promised him a part in the next movie, here he is in Silverado.
Best movie ever! I saw this in the theatre in the summer of 85 and became an instead fan of Kevin Costner and this film. This was his big break. I went to see Silverado because 1 I love Westerns and 2 "The Big Chill"(1983). Before Lawrence Kasdan made Silverado he made The Big CHill Starring 2 of Silverado stars Kevin Kline and Jeff Goldblum. Kevin Costner was suppose to be in The Big Chill but was cut from the film the last minute. Kasdan felt so bad for cutting Costner out of The Big Chill he hand wrote the part for Costner in Silverado. I highly recommend "The Big Chill". It was a massive hit in 1983! It has one of the greatest soundtracks in history. In 1983 everyone owned The Big Chill soundtrack.
Don’t lie…you heard all that through the grapevine. 😂
Four soundtracks I've always been teased about having in my library: the big chill, animal house, footloose, and the commitments.
18:40 that is a Henry Repeating rifle. Sort of the precursor to the Winchester. One of the most notable differences is that the Winchester had wooden furniture along the bottom base of the barrel to protect the shooter’s hands.
During a break while working on this movie is when John Cleese first approached Kevin Klein with the idea to have him co-star in a screenplay he was working on at the time about a romantic/comedy revolving around a jewel heist. That movie of coarse later became "A Fish Called Wanda".
‘Hope and Glory’ (1987) well worth a punt, Dawn.
My favorite Kevin Costner role. Jake is the perfect joyful idiot!
Realize glad that you watched this one!
I remember watching in theatre, & somehow, I had missed John Cleese’s opening titles credit. Was SO HAPPY when I heard, “What’s all this, then?!”! (Makes me smile just remembering it!)
I, eventually was employed in the entertainment dept, of a large, local, world-renowned American theme park, where I participated in various old West shows. Though my chosen character name was, “J.R. Butcher”, one of my favorite counterparts in “mock train robbing”, because of I wore my hair/beard, thought I resembled Kevin Klein enough here, to call me, “Paden”.
If I may recommend a favorite, lesser-known Western favorite of mine? “Red-Headed Stranger”, starring Willie Nelson, Morgan Fairchild, Royal Dano, R.G. Armstrong, et al!
The flick is based upon the Willie Nelson album, of the same title.
Enjoy!
Quigley Down Under is a 1990’s classic. Tom Selleck and Alan Rickman such a good acting choice.
One of my favorites for sure. There are so many good ones it's hard to pick just one for the best.
Enjoyed watching it with you.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe. Yep, I live in the state that was mentioned a lot in western films.
I'd love to see you react to some old b&w gangster movies, like The Big Sleep, The Maltese Falcon or any of the hundreds more. Movies with James Cagney and Humphrey Bogart and so much more. I think you'd love them!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I recommend "Shane", "The Shootist", "High Plains Drifter", "Pale Rider", "Unforgiven", "The Quick and the Dead" (1995), "Quigley Down Under", "Lonesome Dove" (Mini-series), "The Outlaw Josey Wales", "Open Range", "Hang'em High", "Silverado", "True Grit" (Both versions), "Rio Bravo", "The Magnificent Seven". "Tombstone", "Rooster Cogburn", "Big Jake"
What Cobb is eating is called jerky and it basically is a stick of meat - it's dried out, salted, and smoked so it lasts a long time without going bad. It's still sold in the US as snack food.
It's especially good because it's prone to lodging tiny bits between your teeth, to be enjoyed a few hours later whenever you finally work it loose.
Great choice Dawn Marie!! You are my favorite Scottish buckaroo. This is one of my favorite movies from the 1980s because it helped save the Western genre along with your favorite cowboy Clint Eastwood.. Plus the amazing cast of young stars who would all become famous.
I thought I saw Dawn jump in the opening sequence and she said she could throw the knife through the jail bars😅 she should watch Hannie Caulder with Raquel Welch
A very VERY iconic western that is a must see for any John Wayne fan is "The Shootist" from 1976. It was John's final film and I think Hollywood knew it. Almost every old western star from the classic western years is in it in one way or another.
Besides the fact that you need to see this film, the only other recommendation I have is, you should really have a box of tissues nearby.
Bay is a certain color of a horse. It is common (from my experience) that horses may be called a bay as an identifier similarly like other horses getting called that colt or the roan, or the white stallion when the horses name is not known by all parties in the conversation. Secretariat was often referred to as Big Red as a nickname.
Henry is a leading gun manufacture in the US.
"The Quick and the Dead" is really fun and smart. Definitely worth checking out. Love the channel!
Yaaay Dawn!!!! got to see'r everyday this week🥰
YESS! This is the first western I fell in love with, and in my opinion, is surpassed only by "Once Upon a Time In The West" for quality.
A great modern take on the classic western. Great Reaction 👍👍👍
1993 "TOMBSTONE" with Curt Russell and Val Kilmer based on a TRUE STORY. Of Wyatt Earp and Doc. Holiday. The Epic GUN FIGHT at the O.K. Corral
Another good Western 1990 "DANCES WITH WOLVES" with Kevin Costner.
You'll Love both movies
A terrific movie and throwback to the old style westerns. Too bad there was never the sequel that Jake promised, but after this one was so successful I suspect that nobody could afford the cast in a sequel!
"Strong Wee Woman" was the name of my band in college!
Dawn, you may recall; Robert Redford's character, Jeremiah Johnson, coveted a Henry rifle
A SENSE OF FREEDOM - 1981 & THE WEE MAN - 2013.
Great Reaction.......
Classic Story of similar minded/behavior people finding each other and supporting each other....
The Kasden brothers gave Costner, the role in this movie cause all the footage he filmed for "The Big Chill" (Flashback scenes, he played the character of the person who died) ended up on the floor/trash....
This Movie has a list of Actors/Actresses that were on their way up at the time.
Open Range is another Great Kevin Costner Western.....
You could do a western week each month for several years with all the great westerns from the 40's,50's,60's .🤔😂😂😂
There are dozens more Westerns I would like to suggest, but I won't write a list. Instead, let me tell you two names to look out for. The first is Louis L'Amour, who was an amateur Western historian who financed his studies by writing best-selling Western novels. Many of his stories have been made into movies and his estate ensures they stay historically accurate. The second name is Tom Selleck, an actor who flies under the radar in Westerns, but has been in many and is a friend to the Louis L'Amour estate and family.
Either name in connection with a Western pretty much ensures a good story with strong acting.
anytime you see the screenwriter credit say Lawrence Kasdan...pay attention...he's been involved in every movie people revere...
This was my mom's favoritest movie ever......John Wick a close second. I haven't watched it in over a decade, when we last watched it together.
He's going to miss "that bay".
His horse. a horse of a certain color is called a bay.
Love Silverado and love that you're watching all kinds of westerns. Please react to The Long Riders!!! It's a great movie that doesn't fall into the normal western category. Oh yeah, thanks for doing Rio Bravo - another of my favorites!!!
Me hearing your shoutout : supercalifragilisticexpialidocious 😂
😇❤
For more Kevin Kline, check out “Dave”. He’s very presidential.
And I got my fingers crossed🤞that the last film chosen is “Tombstone.” If not, save this western for next “Wedtern Movie Week.” And don’t forget the very modern western “noir” movie where the hero is the bad-ass old gray-haired man, the stranger who comes to town on a personal mission, - LOL 🤠😎🔥👍
The Quick and the Dead Gene Hackman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sharon Stone and Russell Crowe. Great Western. Tombstone Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, Powers Boothe. Another great western. Both newer movies.
The Guns Of Fort Petticoat is a fun 50's western.
Dances with Wolfs
Thank you Dawn, once again a great reaction to a very nice film
i was worried you might not get to this one. modern classic.
RE: Silverado; Fun Fact! If you're wondering why this Western is so good, look no further than the writing and direction by Lawrence Kasdan, who is most famous for being the guy who wrote the script for "The Empire Strikes Back".
