BEST Kevin Costner Speech Ever?

Published 2023-03-02
In 2019, Kevin Costner delivered one of our favorite speeches as he was inducted into the National Cowboy Museum's "Hall of Great Western Performers." In this speech, he recounts his early childhood, his love for western films, the importance they hold in our lives and that he will KEEP MAKING WESTERNS. #cowboy #tv #film #yellowstone

    Kevin has compassion He has a kind heart. I know because when nobody would help because with my luggage, I heard a voice saying I’m going to help her. As he was placing my luggage up in the cabinet, I asked what his name was. He said Kevin. And I said Kevin Costner. I recognized his voice. He is handsome and kind. I’ll never forget him ❤
  • I wrote a letter to Mr. Costner after seeing Dances With Wolves. About 3 months later an 8x10 envelope arrived with a signed black and white photo of him from the movie. That day I became a forever fan of this gentleman, this artist, this cowboy, this American, this friend of Whitney Houston, this deep deep lover of westerns. Hats off to you, my friend (even though we’ve never met face to face) and Godspeed 🙏🏽🌟🙏🏽
  • A speech without any notes to rely on. Great speaker and person.
  • Costner is a National Treasure. His humility touches me, and his movies make me laugh and cry.

    he really should be a writer. he is so good at telling a story
  • Class act and a true western gentleman who was raised with morals. Well deserved! 👏💛🤠💛
  • What an absolutely heartwarming speech. His life resembles so close to my own families. The way he tells his story so genuinely humble and easy to feel like you've known him your whole life. I've truly loved his movies and admire him even more now after hearing the background of his family . He's an American icon.
  • What an amazing life he has had! His imagination made him soar like his spirit animal The Eagle 🦅 ❤

    It's so heartwarming to know there is a Kevin Costner in the world.
  • I could listen to Kevin Costner tell stories all day. He has such a amusing sense of humor and a wonderful attitude about life!
  • Beautiful Kevin, thank you, here in Montana, we share your dreams. Hopefully those from out of state moving in will respect the lifestyle we live, as you do. God bless. ❤

    A role model for our boys. A true gentleman and class act.
  • Kevin Costner as a man is who I’d like my son to grow up to be. Humility, loyal and class personified. And from Dances with Wolves to Open Range to Yellowstone a wonderfully talented actor. He sits comfortably alongside my idols; John Wayne and Clint Eastwood in representing the Western movie genre. Bravo from Australia Mr Costner, Bravo.

    That was very emotional, Kevin I'm a 74 year old cowboy who has ridden the couch over many a dusty trail. I would love to have a bit part in one of your westerns even if it was only to get bitten by a Shetland or kicked by a donkey. I grew up in England and my nickname has been cowboy since 11, and I wanted to put my brand on a Filly in school. Love all westerns that are made right especially if they show some truth, you have made some Gems.
