    It's so easy to forget sometimes how many classics Kevin Costner has really been in! Since I don't watch TV, he'd kind of fallen off my radar, but i always think of "Open Range" when I hear his name- one of my favorite Westerns ever, and he really made that genre what it is in a modern way. He's also looking great- one of the rare actors i've seen that doesn't change too much physically (if that makes any sense?) and still looks like themselves as they get older.

      My last day in California I was hiking a hike I'd done 1000 times and as I was leaving the park for the last time a coyote was howling up on a ridge. Looked just like the wolf in DWW and I thought of that line, ha. That scene gets me every time too.

      Kevin Costner takes so much for his accent in Robin Hood, meanwhile Morgan Freeman has a stereotypical American Southern accent and nobody complains at all! Yeah, sure, he was not playing the title character, but it was not just some cameo role either.

    How sad that they didn’t talk about 'A Perfect World,' which I think is one of Costner's top best performances.
    I knew it would be a long shot of them to bring up 'Mr. Brooks.' A great underrated thriller, and Costner is fantastic in it. It's probably my number one favorite performance of his. Surprisingly, the top two performances I love of his are the one's where he plays a bad guy. Wish he'll do more roles as a villain cause he's really excellent when he does them.
    Can't wait to see his new movie 'Horizon.'
