1923 is from a whirlwind romance out of Africa to the rugged mountain frontier of Montana, Taylor Sheridan’s sweeping series 1923 chronicles the unhindered passion and the shocking truths of the American West. Against the backdrop of a rapidly changing post-war world, Western Expansion reveals the depths of human greed and the forced assimilation of Indigenous Peoples. The critically-acclaimed drama, anchored by Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford, recounts the journeys of a multi-generational ensemble as they fight for their legacies to endure and hope that those they depend on will return to the places and people they call home. TV-14 | 60mins
