What Is ‘1923’ About?
Set a hundred years prior to the events of Yellowstone, 1923 centers around Jacob (Harrison Ford) and Cara Dutton (Helen Mirren) and the hardships their family faces in the early 20th century. From Prohibition, the beginning of the Great Depression, which affected rural areas like Montana long before the Wall Street Crash of 1929, and disputes over land and cattle. The show shows the obstacles the Dutton family had to overcome to maintain their ranch and way of life.
1923 is narrated by Isabel May as Elsa Dutton, who was also the narrator of 1883.

Meanwhile, Spencer and Alexandra board a ship to London. However, Alexandra’s ex-fiancé, Arthur, is also on board the same ship. He challenges Spencer to a duel. The two fight with swords on the deck of the ship, but Spencer ends up throwing Arthur overboard. Spencer is taken to the brig and brought to the next port, separating him from his wife. Alexandra tells Spencer that she’ll find him in Bozeman, Montana.
Jack’s wife, Liz, suffers a miscarriage and Zane’s wife, Alice, is arrested for miscegenation. And Whitfield tells Jacob and Cara that he paid the property taxes on the Dutton ranch, and if they can’t repay him by the end of the year, Whitfield could take their land.
