Western film icon Sam Elliott is being spit-roasted online after railing on Jane Campion’s 12-time Oscar-nominated drama “The Power of the Dog” for including “allusions to homosexuality” and other LGBTQ themes.
The “1883” actor dropped the shocking bombshell during a recent appearance on Marc Maron’s “WTF Podcast,” Entertainment Weekly reported.
“You want to talk about that piece of s – – t?” the 77-year-old “Tombstone” star sputtered when asked for his thoughts about the provocative Netflix movie, which is a contender for the Best Picture and Best Director Academy Awards.
For the uninitiated, the much-praised “The Power of the Dog” stars Benedict Cumberbatch as a closeted gay rancher in 1925 Montana who’s abusive toward his new sister-in-law and her son.

Maybe you didn’t read the article.
It sounds like she was agreeing with Sam Elliott.
She didn’t start the discussion on homosexuality in the movie.
Sam Elliott did.
There's always these deeply endeared internet posters.
They are even more entertaining.
And with that, he can kiss his 50+ year career goodbye. I’m sure he has plenty of “F you” money, but his career doesn’t deserve to end this way. And this is just more proof, that Hollywood is a leftist , Orwellian GULAG
Unless you goose march in perfect lockstep you are a racist, sexist, homophobe.
Then don’t call people homophobes.
Then don’t call me the names I was called. Or that woman who immediately made false assumptions on me and readily attacked me. That’s just not what FR is supposed to be but having been part of this forum since the 90’s I’ve seen it devolve.
Read my comments. My own words. Not the ones someone else falsely assigns to me. Then knock it off and leave me alone.
What exactly is a homophobe?
Yeah. Talented actor. Beyond that, who cares? He also owns a pretty cool house in Portland. He better hope Antifa doesn’t take a serious dislike to him. Location, location, location.
I think is quite a ways from P-Town.
The Harrisburg ranch is. His mom had a Victorian in NW Portland that he now owns. And don’t kid yourself that there aren’t Antifa types in or near Harrisburg.
Actually, two families if you watched the film.
