Isn't it great how just about everyone had a beard?


Seriously, only like three male characters in the whole movie were clean shaven. Everyone had some sort of facial hair. Mainly beards though. Even John Cleese had a beard! May I say, the beardliest western ever?

Linda Hunt had a beard, but Kasdan made her shave it.

Because if you look at pictures from that era the majority had long hair and beards which is a lot more realistic than movies from the 40s, 50s and even the 60s when everyone had short hair and was clean shaven.

Kevin Costner was too clean cut to look realistic, a bead and long hair would have helped his look

Of all the things I have lost I miss my mind the most
