As a serious western movie,
‘Silverado’s’ aim is way off
Lawrence Kasdan couldn't
leave well enough alone. After
his "The Big Chill” became, a
huge hit, ho decided to switch:
genres on his crew and give
them cowboy hats. But
“Silverado” is little more than
"The Big Chill Coes West.” and
it doesn’t work.
The film is a contrived, little
tale of four loners who band
together out of sheer decency to
do good deeds, Emmett (Scott
Clenn) is the. first; he saves
I'aden (Kevin Kline) from dying
of thirst in the desert They both
try to save black cowboy Mai
(Danny Clover), from . a racist
bartender and .then bust Baden's
headstrong young brother lake
(Kevin Costner) out of jail. Mai
then saves them from the harsh
but pragmatic Sheriff Langston,
played In a marvelously wry
fashion by John Cleese.
From there the east gets too.
big to handle, and the good
deeds become a little too hard to
swallow. The four of them, out
of the goodness of their souls,
decide to s^ve a bedraggled
wagontrain whose entire for
tune had been stolen by'
criminal scouts. 'Radon arid £ tu
rned sort of fall for the newly .»
widowed Hannah (Rosanna Ar
quette), but I’aden gives up the
half-hearted romance after her
horrible .speech . of . Inde
pendence.
“1 want to build something,
make things grow." s he 'stoic I y
recites as the music, swells.

she is practically dropped front

“Silverado" is the sorriest ex

enough, many of the scenes
reminded me of “Rhustler's

however; is that was played for
laughs and thfs one fs serious.
