I’m generally a Kevin Costner fan and/or apologist. “Field of Dreams” is one of my top 15 favorite movies of all-time. Many of his flicks transfixed me as a kid – “The Untouchables,” “Bull Durham,” “Dances with Wolves,” “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves,” “JFK” – and still do as an adult. “A Perfect World” is one of Clint Eastwood’s most underrated directorial efforts and Costner does some of the best work of his career playing the personification of cool. I dig “Waterworld” to a degree (Dennis Hopper’s super-fun in it) and even defend “The Postman” (How can you hate a movie that co-stars Tom Petty and features the very talented Larenz Tate as a character named Ford Lincoln Mercury?). As far as I’m concerned Costner’s pretty much three-for-three as a director – “Open Range” is a banger of an old school Western. Hell, I even liked his turn as the villainous illegitimate son of Elvis Presley in the much-maligned “3000 Miles to Graceland.”
