Violence, brutality and a flicker of love are the ties that bind the Dutton dynasty in ‘1923’ pilot

Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren star as Jacob and Cara Dutton in “1923.” (James Minchin III/Paramount+)

“Violence has always haunted this family…where it doesn’t follow, we hunt it down, we seek it.” — Voice-over narration in the pilot episode of “1923.”

Truer words have never been spoken about the Dutton clan, no matter the century or the decade, from the brutally unforgiving wagon-train journey of the post-Civil War generation chronicled in “1883” or the seemingly endless modern-day conflicts erupting in and around the family’s sprawling ranch in “Yellowstone.” And as we see in the Expanding Taylor Sheridan Universe (ETSU!) entry “1923,” hardly a week goes by without someone throwing a punch or unholstering a gun or facing their mortality.
