SPOILER ALERT! This story contains details from the first episode of 1923, which dropped at midnight on Paramount+. 1883 star Isabel May is back as Elsa Dutton — but in voice-over form only &…
prequel that provides more of a backstory on how the Duttons came to amass so much power in Montana.plays Jacob Dutton, the brother of Tim McGraw’s James Dutton who was first introduced inElsa explains that Jacob came to Montana in 1894 to help raise his brother’s two sons — Spencer , an ex-WWI soldier plagued with PTSD and the urge to never leave Kenya, and John Sr. , a bonafide cowboy who stayed behind to help his father run the ranch. John Sr.
Spencer, meanwhile, has carved out a tidy trade hunting big cats who get in the way of upper class safaris. We learn about his true ties to Montana when we see his stepmom Cara Dutton writing him letter about how his uncle, brother and nephew are busy pushing the herd up the hill while he’s somewhere in Nairobi “seeking that part of you that you lost after the war.”
Then Spencer is viciously attacked by the very animal he’s trying to hunt and kill. He’ll survive, no doubt. And in a rather jarring pivot, the action moves to a residential school for indigenous girls who live in fear of a ruler-swatting nun and a sadistic priest , who appear to have no affection for their young charges like the brave Teonna . The episode may have started with Elsa saying “violence has always haunted this family,” but it seems to drive the local Catholics, too. No sign yet on how this nastiness will impact Yellowstone ranch.
There are a few other interesting characters in the background, like the young beauty named Elizabeth who’s dying to marry Jack, and the welcome edition of Robert Patrick, who plays Sheriff McDowell. And how about those street boxers and placard-waving ninnies who were protesting outside the bar?: The show doesn’t return until Jan. 1 on Paramount+.
