Kevin Costner Speech National Cowboy Museum, Oklahoma City

Kevin Costner was just honored by being inducted into the Hall of Great Western Performers as part of the 2019 Western Heritage Awards this past Saturday. I cannot embed this video because it’s not posted on YT, but on the Wrangler Network’s website. His acceptance speech is funny, sincere, and very moving. The whole thing, including a short introduction, is less than 30 minutes; I think you’ll enjoy it.

Thanks for sharing. He seems truly genuine. I’d heard the 30-30 story before but never in his own words.

Thank you for posting this. I really like many of his films and how immovable he has been about them. Love or hate him, he sticks to his guns and does things the way he thinks it should be done.

Good stuff.

It doesn't make me want to watch 'Dances with Wolves' or 'Wyatt Earp' again. But, it does make me want to see 'Open Range' again.

Good video, I enjoyed that. A good new modern western series he stars in called Yellowstone on the Paramount Network is very good.

Yeah. I like the guy, and the characters he portrays.

Good for him.
