If you haven't yet watched Yellowstone, you need to. Beth Dutton shows us what it means to emerge from the trauma of patriarchal oppression. Warning: spoiler alert.
Hello , this is Kelly . I play Beth on the show . Someone sent me this . I’m so blown away by what you have written . Thank you . For seeing her . For understanding her . For writing about her .
She is everything you say and playing her is an honor
Best , Kelly
Do you have an Instagram account ? I could repost it if you do . I’m sure the fans of the show would love to read this .
This is such a brilliant insight into a character that so many people just see on the surface. I have felt for four years the strength, pain, and fierce love that guide this complex character. Thank you for writing something that I could never have said so adroitly ..but understand completely
Beth is my favorite character ever written. I can completely relate to her. Yellowstone writers have done a marvelous job or explaining her trauma behind her behavior. She does give me hope no matter your lot in life we can always prevail. I can't wait to see her arch in Season 5. Thank you Kelly for bringing her to life and your amazing job portraying her. Thank you Melissa for showcasing her.
Love Beth she has balls of steel ! When I grow up I want to be Beth , love her character and is needed to see women represented as strong 💪🏻 and ballsy ! Loving it ! Go Beth your my hero! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very well written and very accurate characterization as I interpret Beth. I too feel Kelly plays Beth with the attention to detail and in a way women are either wanting to be her or cheering her on. Love this❤️
Thank you so much for this Melissa. I have read this a few times thinking of what I could add, but you have described Beth and how I feel about her so beautifully and perfectly. Kelly Reilly is absolutely brilliant. No one else could play Beth, but her. Please thank your daughter (she has great taste!) for me for introducing you to Beth. Without her, we may not have had this fantastic post.

I feel that Beth is often so misunderstood. It’s really refreshing when people actually understand the character of Beth, which Kelly Reilly does a phenomenal job portraying. So much of the character isn’t in the words she says (which people love the dialogue), but it’s all right there on the screen (on Kelly’s face and in her eyes) if you’re paying attention. So, I appreciate someone not just thinking Beth is a bad ass, but understanding her on a deeper level.
I am fan of the bad ass birch archetypetgat is Beth but it is Rip that ultimately saves her either from her own self destructive ways or those of men . Rip doeswith compassion and patience or out right rage and ultra violence.
