Wild Bill's eyes?
May 21 2008, 9:28 AM EDT | Post edited: May 21 2008, 9:28 AM EDT
Okay, this is really anal, I know, but I guess my eyes are getting bad--James Butler Hickok had blue eyes, and Keith Carradine does not. Did KC wear contacts to portray this character? Sometimes his eyes look blue in this show (and I think they did sometimes in 'Diamond of Jeru' too), but I swear I can't tell! Anyone know (or care!)? Do you find this valuable?

I think his eyes OFTEN look blue in his movies, but it must be a matter of spotlights, a certain reflection of lights... In fact I assume his eyes are brown (or hazel if you prefer...;-))

I guess that does happen to everyone's eyes; mine seem to change colors, as well! I've always said his eyes were brown, but ARayne is convinced that they are differently-colored, and shouldn't be labelled "just brown!" So we settled on 'hazel,' even though I don't think his eyes are hazel...if he ever read this, he will think it sad and pitiful that ANYONE is spending time thinking about the color or his eyes, lol!

Probably... and maybe he will laugh at us because (maybe) he uses to wear different colored lenses for each movie... lol...

Well, he could probably think of SEVERAL reasons to laugh at us, but, if that is the only one, I guess that'd be okay...!

No, I don't want to believe he's that mean, we are so nice after all, why would he laugh at us (except about the contact lenses)... lol... Well, I said I will stop and I will now, I'll be back tomorrow... it's hard to leave but it will be better to come back ! ;-))

Wait a minute.. Wild Bill's eyes? All his photographs are in black and white. Color film wasn't invented yet. He might have sat or stood for a painting or something...

I'm sorry, I misunderstood the question.

Well, I don't know about that; I was just going by a letter mrs Libby Custer (that I read somewhere; don't remember now!) and another account that talked about his height, his blonde hair and blue eyes!

As for KC's eyes, I went back to a photo included here (page "backfire", bottom right) : it's a close-up shot and we can clearly see his eyes on it, and they really look blue. I come to the conclusion he really wears colored lenses from time to time. Go and see it and tell me what you think.

Yeah, I actually was looking at that one last night (ahem, just to check his eye color, of course!)...maybe he does. If he is having eye issues like me, he would have to wear something! He's gorgeous!

Yes, DO feel free to start a separate thread on his possible medical issues, lol! I'm just having one of those days where I'm having issues, like "why does a professional woman with little free time help to start a fansite for an ACTOR?" UGH! But he's just so darn cute and talented...I a about to post some more pictures!

Well, wysteria says they are blue-gray, sometimes looking hazel. If you or I are ever lucky enough to meet him, we will just have to gaze longingly into his eyes until we come up with the right color....I don't know about you, but I am certainly willing to undertake that particular task...lol!

I am pretty sure they are the color of my Horse's eyes. Or one of them (I mean one of my horses eyes) not that my horse has two different color eyes.
