"Why Not Now?" | Silverado (1985) | Now Playing

[@edwardpate6128]

One of the best Westerns ever! Brian Dennehy was a villain you loved to hate.

[@mikejaqua4604]

Nah I wouldn’t put it top 5 or even top 10, but I did enjoy it.

[@alienlife7754]

This was a very under appreciated western. It came out during the Vietnam War movie craze, going up against films like Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, and Born On The Fourth Of July. People were in a different mood. But I loved it. I am not a Kevin Kline fan but even he was good in this one.

[@seyerus]

My absolute favorite western! Great movie.

[@mrzoinky5999]

This was/is a great movie. When it first came out it felt fresh; I believe it ushered in a new style of western.

[@kegginstructure]

The movie had just about every cliche in the book but it was still well done, enjoyable, and in the end, the good guys won. But there were SO many good actors in that production that it was almost overload.

[@rapid13]

I’m pretty sure that was intentional. It was more of an homage than a stand alone story. I loved every minute of it!

[@shrapnel77]

The good guys had way too much plot armor in this one. It was acted well and, in the end, was an entertaining flick.

He was terrific and 'nice' in Dave, another very underrated movie.

[@maxrocketansky]

Dude, Jeff Fahey was a STUD back in the day

[@Pablo668]

I feel like an opportunity was missed not making a film about Ullyses S Grant, with Kevin Kline as Grant. He's got the right look, though a bit tall. Has the acting chops too.

[@davidabbott1951]

Mr Dennehy could do smiling menace better than anyone in the world. You just believed there was an arse-wooping waiting there for you, behind the eyes and teeth.

[@djplayskeys]

I think what killed Kline’s potential path in westerns was that ridiculous movie Wild Wild West.

[@malcolmr3]

Love this movie. Though it wasn’t his first movie this was definitely Costner’s breakout role. Felt a little odd seeing Scott Glenn as a good guy, he always played a great villain.

[@Jeff-fx1zy]

Did you not see his portrayal of Allen Shepard in "The Right Stuff"? That was after Colby, in "Apocalypse Now", and before Emmit in this one. He was a busy dude.

[@erichoffman2908]

I always wondered who Jeff Goldblum was going to back here. He later turned out to be a bad guy, but in this scene, he is pretty new to town and this saloon is where he makes his living. So who was he going to use that knife on?

[@theholymackerel072]

He seems like a good guy in the first scene. It’s confusing for a western- characters are in black or white. His character wears a grey suit- he’s neutral, looking out for himself.

[@gregoryphillips3969]

Scott Glenn was great but by his own admission he was no diplomat. He was never hesitant to tell certain types to f off. He wouldn't play the hollywood game. He hated phonies and was too much of a straight shooter during his prime years where yes he could have had a much bigger impact. Scott Glenn was a great actor who always brought a palpable edginess and toughness to all of his roles. Too bad that he couldn't have been just a bit easier to deal with personally.

Saw this when it first came out and was pretty darned unimpressed. “Big Chill” on horseback. I know all western movies are actors wearing costumes, but I just couldn’t get past the impression of ‘80s actors doing ‘80s acting while dressed up old timey. Watching this clip, my impression hasn’t mellowed with age. I find myself singing the punchline from the Smothers Brothers version of “Streets of Loredo.” 🎵If you get an outfit, you can be a cowboy too.🎵

[@michaels5217]

Actors killed it across the board. This seems more like a viewer problem only seeing 80s actors, like you can't watch Leonard Nimoy in anything but Star Trek. I was able to be in awe of Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting without going "eh, it's just Mork dressed up in regular clothes." Lawrence Kasdan was involved in both movies and used many of the same actors. Costner was actually the corpse in Big Chill. He made great movies in both instances.
