Kevin Costner took on the most controversial role of his career and played it to perfection in Oliver Stone's political thriller
Dances With Wolves (1990) – Kevin Costner Western Movie HD
Kevin Costner took on the role of real-life lawyer Jim Garrison in Oliver Stone's JFK. Like other Stone films, this film also raised several questions about the political landscape of the country at the time, making it a controversial project. Costner's western roles, be it Dances with Wolves, Yellowstone or Horizon, were nowhere near as sharp or controversial as JFK.
However, the film received critical praise for Costner's performance, direction, editing and cinematography. The film even won Oscars for Best Picture and Best Film Editing. Costner initially turned down the project but was convinced by his agent who was a big fan of Stone.
Oliver Stone's JFK was bound to rub some people the wrong way after it explored an alternative myth to the assassination of John F. Kennedy. The film examines New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison who did not believe the Warren Commission's conclusions about the Kennedy assassination.
