I could hear his voice in every single movie I watch and never get sick of it.

[editorjuno]

This is pretty much Sam Elliot playing Sam Elliot again, this time with a better script than usual -- and that works for me, it's about time he was the lead in a feature.

[estephens]

the one Thing i hate about sam elliot is that he's not in enough movies

[jlocke]

"It's Folgers"... That is why we love Sam Elliot.

[harbscantina]

I really hope that Sam Elliott gets some major recognition out of this film - looks pretty good. It's about time he got something for his efforts - one of my favourite actors.

[jodan]

I haven't been to a movie theater in 40yrs but I would see this movie. As stated Sam Elliot is an actor that the newer generations could learn from.This is a real man. I am an old guy but something about this trailer brings a lump in my throat. It brings back things I should have done, regrets and a life that I wish I could do over. Nothing bad just a different path in life.  Sam is one of the last fine true actors we have left.Much respect for Sam. I hope you win an Oscar.

a truly unique actor and we don't see enough of him

[Rekreated]

Such an under rated actor in the piss town of Hollywood.

Let's not forget that's Katharine Ross - the Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Graduate, Stepford Wives Katharine Ross (also Mrs. Sam Elliot).

[trangenusa]

for those of you that don't know, Katherine Ross in this movie is Sam's "real" wife, they've been married since she did the Graduate with Dustin Hoffman. and then she kinda dropped out of acting and Sam actually started out as a 'Stuntman' then got into acting.

[mkelly]

Sam Elliott is great. Good to see him have a moment that is all his

[BringBackMyYesterdaybyDee]

Outstanding film! Elliot should win a 2018 Best Actor Academy Award for his performance!

One thing I have discovered as an older man is that if a younger woman likes you, don't question it.

[GoldRushMedia]

Sam Elliott is one of the last of a sadly disappearing breed of actors in Hollywood who were real men and not pansies. I'm thrilled to see him on screen again!

[nerblebun]

Any movie with Sam Elliot is worth a watch.

[pipis]

I don’t miss watching a movie starring this man.
With a supporting role, he also overshadows the "big" faces.
Sam Elliot!!

[killacommiemommie]

The voice, the presence, the age...he is what we boomers want as our legacy. Age is truth, experience life, accept the loss and revel in the accomplishments.

[lancecummins]

Why do I feel like this film is going to leave me in tears?

[alfbittner]

You hear that voice and you know it's Sam, deep, booming narrative quality. One of my faves.

[Outamyhead]

Dammit Sam Elliot is one of those few actors you never meet, but you would invite him over for lunch if you did.
