When I’m not keeping up with all the new and upcoming 2025 movies, I like to go back and relax by checking out classic movies that I either haven’t seen in a very long time or for the first time entirely. Recently, my wife and I sat down to rewatch Silverado, one of Kevin Costner’s best Westerns (and his earliest), and we were both blown away by the Academy Award winner’s portrayal of a young gunslinger in this often overlooked ‘80s movie.
In the days since watching this movie that had me rooting for the outlaws, I’ve been thinking about Silverardo a lot, especially when it comes to Costner’s take on Jake, the young and dynamic kid brother of Scott Glenn’s Emmett. And you know, there’s something about his performance I really wish he’d bring back.
