2. A now common trivia question in coffee table conversation, it seems to be a must for any quiz dedicated to Kevin Costner. In what 1983 film did he have a bit part from which he was later cut?

From Quiz Film History of Kevin Costner

Answer: The Big Chill

Costner indeed appeared in 'Testament', 'Table for Five' and 'Night Shift' (1982), all bit parts. He was set to appear as a dead guy in 'The Big Chill', the 1983 ode to baby boomers everywhere, but his scenes were later cut by director Lawrence Kasdan. Kasdan would later make up for this.

3. It was probably during the year 1987 that Costner officially established himself as a leading man in Hollywood. His films that year included 'No Way Out' and 'The Untouchables'. What was his character name in 'The Untouchables'?

From Quiz Film History of Kevin Costner

Answer: Eliot Ness & Elliot Ness & Ness & Eliot & Elliot

In 1987's 'The Untouchables', Costner takes on the Chicago mobs, led by Al Capone (played memorably by Robert De Niro). Costner gets added help from Sean Connery, who plays his assistant Jim Malone, and Andy Garcia, who portrays Agent George Stone (aka Giuseppe Petri). This was really one of Costner's best pieces of work, I thought.

4. Kevin co-starred with Whitney Houston in this breath taking dramatic movie that had romance and action.

From Quiz Do You Know Kevin Costner?

Answer: The Bodyguard

This movie was produced by Kevin. He played Frank Farmer, who reluctantly became the body guard for Rachel Marron. Kevin took extra measures to make Whitney look sensational in this movie. This movie was nominated for Academy Awards including Best Music for "I Have Nothing" and "Run to You," as well as winning Grammy Awards. Kevin was nominated in the MTV Movie Awards for: Best Male Performance, Most Desirable Male and Costner/Houston were also nomimated for Best Duo. "Dances with Wolves" received various awards for Kevin's efforts. In 1997, Kevin was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for his performance in "Tin Cup."

5. In which film does Costner play a member of the Kennedy family?

From Quiz Film History of Kevin Costner

Answer: Neither of these

In the Oliver Stone film 'JFK', as already mentioned, Costner plays a lawyer named Garrison. In 'Thirteen Days', Costner plays an advisor to President Kennedy named Kenny O'Donnell.

6. In the marvelous 2003 film 'Open Range', Costner plays Charley Waite, a gunslinger from the old west. Who plays his partner Boss Spearman in the film?

From Quiz Film History of Kevin Costner

Answer: Robert Duvall

This is really a terrific western, one of Costner's best films, and actually one of his best acting performances as well! Duvall should have been nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his performance, and I also believe Annette Bening, who plays Costner's love interest Sue Barlow, should have gotten a supporting actress nod. Regardless...let's hope Costner keeps churning out the excellent work. Thanks for playing this quiz, I hope you enjoyed it and will try some of my other stuff.
