Chantry Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I don't have Paramount Plus so I didn't get to see 1883 until I just recently got the 1883 DVD set. I've watched the first 7 episodes and I am surprised at how good a Western it is. I was surprised to see that Tim McGraw and Faith Hill are both good actors and Lamonica Garrett is very good. Sam Elliott and Isabel May did an incredible job and this is the best work I've seen from Sam Elliott. If you haven't seen check it out. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually a musician who tries to act in a real film or TV show isn't very good. There are exceptions, Frank Sinatra was a very good actor and Dean Martin could be good in the right role. Having not seen Tim or Faith act before, I was surprised at how good their acting was in 1883 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Tried to watch it. We never made it past the first show. Didn't do anything for us. 1923 is a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dapper Dynamite Dick Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Tim McGraw is a far ,far better actor than he was as a singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 1883 was good. Enjoyed it. 1923 is better. Enjoying it.. Not going to get hot and bothered about the actors and whether or not they think like me or not. It is a movie. I read a lot of books. I don’t dig into the author to determine whether or not they think like I do. It's entertainment. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, my only complaint is that Taylor hasn't finished either of these 2 series like it was first mentioned before he now is pushing 2 new series out. He was supposed to show season 2 of 1883 where they were actually starting their homestead for I believe 4 of the families. Then he still needs to do season 2 of 1923 showing the man getting his wife back and getting to America to help save the ranch. Not sure if he will every finish them.

TM There is a season planned for 1923. The Actors strike and the Writers strike combined was about 10 months of nothing getting made AND they have to get most of the actors free at the same time to start production of season 2. If wikipedia is correct, Paramount wanted more episodes, but Sheriden considered 1883 complete. With the two most important (and most interesting) characters dying in 1883, I don't think the 3 remaining leads had enough "star power" to carry another "season" or mini series. And making things even worse is he has other projects he is working on Edited March 5 by Chantry 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
