Lonesome Dove best western ever made i still watch it over and over again thanks for sharing
"I hate rude behavior in a man, I won't tolerate it" Now that's a mighty strong statement about his character. Too bad we don't have a lot more men like that today!! The world just might be a bit better of a place!
I agree Steve. Thanks for watching.
No we can't ached that way-- we might someone's FEELINGS!!
Nah. Don’t forget that scene takes place because Call is angry a man is hitting his son. His son he refuses to acknowledge. He’d rather blame rude behavior and violently attack a man then just acknowledge Newt as his son.
So uh.. as a dad myself… no we don’t need more “men like that”. Plus Newt’s desire to seek his fathers approval literally leads to his death. (Spoiler)
It's a taught thing.
how very true!
This mini-series came out nearly 35 years ago. I was 25 years old at the time. At 60 years old now I can, “Here’s to the sunny slopes of long ago!”
I’m 24, just watched the show; one of the best I’ve ever seen. I can definitely say it wouldn’t pass in todays times…but maybe that’s my favorite part about it. 😂
Two of the best movie characters to ever be
Lonesome Dove is One of the Best Movies Ever Made! I can watch over & over again, it never gets old...
I couldn't agree more Michael. Thanks for watching the video.
We used to watch it Thanksgiving every year but I no longer have the VHS tapes, CD's nor the players ;^), besides the kids are all grown and gone.
(My kids knew all the lines ... Good Times!)
I gave the Tapes and CD's away to friends, those guys are both deceased now, hopefully they gave them to folks that appreciated them as much as we did
@@TMB247 I try to watch it every year .. I lived off grid in the mountains for some time and watched it often
Lost count on how many times I have watched it. Read the novel and now I listen to the novel here on TH-cam.
I agree totally
So just before i discovered utube and that we could watch anything over our phones .. i became disabled and after a sad divorce from a man who also was funny and liked movies like lonesome dove.. i moved two hours away at my mother's i hadnt seen it in it in 20 years .. about every 6 months or so i watched it totalling about twelve times .. i have every line memorized.. i loved it . I still love it !! Sincerely Angela brown aged 52 .. Lori and i were the same age
I can't imagine picking out a half dozen scenes, or a half hundred, ot a half thousand. The whole series from beginning to end was flat out GREAT - GREAT writing, GREAT direction GREAT cast, GREAT acting, GREAT filming
Lonesome Dove is.in a class ALL by itself.
LOVE it when Gus pulls that big Walker. The shot glass scene has always been my favorite of favorites.
Thanks for watching Eric.
Well friend, the Walker-Colt had a lengthy and inconsistent lock-time; a person wood need to be a marksman and a mathematician to shoot glassware from the air.
The Walker-Colt had a lengthy and inconsistent lock-time; a shooter would have to be a marksman and a mathematician to shoot glassware from the air. Western mythology in film is why Wyatt Earp left Hollywood as a Western Film Advisor; he couldn't stomach the fiction. Personally, I don't care as I see it as entertainment and not documentary.
"Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago." I can relate.
Yep Jim, time gets away from us doesn't it. Thanks for watching the video.
And living in the San Antonio area I can think back to many a day long ago. As a kid we would go down to the San Antpnio river just south of downtown, was barely a creek in many spots you could literally jump across if it hadn't rain for awhile. It was controlled by the river authority and doesn't become much till you get to Espada park, where theres a dam for the water to build up. Bit of history right there, the aquaducts built by the Spanish (with Indian labor help) in the 1700's and some still carry water to this day, but they irrigated the fields in the area. Several missions in this proximity.
Anyway the river is controlled with the help of a tune of a tunnel some 300 feet down constructed in the 1980's and maybe into the 90's. I've wondered how it ran through town at that time

Nothing is better than a wet cold Sunday afternoon with nothing to do and you’re flipping through the channels and you find Lonsome Dove is just starting. Time well spent.
Lonesome Dove is the best thing that has ever been on TV.
I worked on the film crew and it was a real joy to see some of the scenes being filmed! Larger than life they were in there performances! The best western ever made.
The best western indeed Nick. Thanks for watching the video.
Wish I could of been there , one of the best ever made ! I was in my early 20's when it came out , now I'm almost 54 , time flies ! They don't make good ones anymore , the best actors are almost gone , sad .😣😑
Would have love to have worked on something like that.
Never really looked at the cast list initially, but 1st few years, I thought it was Kenny Rodgers & Robert DuVall playing in this & took me by surprise when I found out it was Tommy Lee Jones. Tommy Lee was a good actor in this, just reminded me of Kenny with his looks. Wish he reprised his role in the 2nd, quality just wasn't the same level.
Best western ever made. By virtue of it's length (what was it 4-5 hours)...
Too short.
Being a Texan, I love this authentic western! I NEVER understood why Robert Duvall didn't receive the Emmy award for best actor in a dramatic mini series. The award went to another Robert... Robert Mitchum for Winds of War. I'm a fan of Mitchum & saw his portrayal, but it couldn't hold a candle to Duvall's Gus. Lonesome Dove is a classic & it is still watched today. My grandchildren really enjoyed seeing the dvd!! I hate to see the wrong candidate win, much like the best Oscar song for the 2017 films going to the wrong song. "This Is Me" from The Greatest Showman deserved the win!!!! The song is still being sung everywhere & it too, will be a classic. I can't even recall the one that won. Long live Lonesome Dove!!!!!!!!🤠
Yep long live LD Sharma.
I am a "naive" Texan who learned ALOT about Texas history when I lived there for 4 years (J. Frank Dobie, San Jacinto, Alamo, etc.).
When I visited the John Bryan cabin in Dallas, I asked a worker what was the best history of early post-Civil War Texas, and they recommended "Lonesome Dove". In this case, like "Bonfire of the Vanities" for 1980's NYC, fiction telling the truth better than any history.
GREATEST Western Mini-Series EVER!
I agree George.
Lonesome Dove is a movie that I will never forget and always watch and enjoy I love cowboys
Wonderful movie Lorena.
A true classic Duster. :) I wore out my double VHS copy and had to upgrade to a a DVD copy. 🙂
I think it's time to pull out my Lonesome Dove box set, grab some popcorn and drift away into one of the best westerns ever made.
Sounds like a great plan Kay. Thanks for watching the video.
"Lonesome Dove" ....forever ! ! !
LD is a great one for sure Michael. Thanks for watching the video.
Can watch Lonesome Dove over and over.
Yep Matt. A great rewatch. Thanks for viewing the video.
Duvall has to be one of the most UNDERRATED/UNDERAPPRECIATED American actors... bust a cap!!!
Agree 100% Alan. Thanks for watching.
Im not sure hes underated, to be honest. The godfather, apocalypse now, open range....lots of great films that people know him from. Hes appreciated here in scotland anyway!
Don't think anyone underrated Robert Duval
He is an academy award winner
Only because he stays up all night reading the good book 😎
The best of all westerns. Those were fine days back when.
Fine indeed Jack. Thanks for watching the video.
"I hate rude behavior in a man. Won't tolerate it."
Words to live by!😉
Classic. Thanks for watching the video roscoe.
Be the last time that tracker will ever strap whip anybody..
My favorite of the five scenes.
Thankyou . I have watched that 100 times and i can't tell what he said .
Indeed!;
I enjoyed Lonesome Dove. I bought the series. I enjoy it whenever I see it.
Lonesome Dove Is general considered one of the best, if not, the best western ever made. I have watched it at least 7 or 8 times.
Top of my list laserbeam. Thanks for watching the video.
Right along with Red River the John Wayne version.
Gus McCrae is the best character in any western. Perfectly brought to life by Robert Duval
My sentiments exactly Dan. Thanks for watching the video.
without a doubt! I'm from Texas and never got why you would go to all that to get to Montana. A couple of years ago I road my motorcycle up across the northern states and when I was riding through Montana I remember thinking "I get it now" truly G-ds country
Agreed
If Gus McCrae was the only role Robert Duval ever had he'd still be a legend
I’ve always been fond of Woodrow myself.
@@williamrobinson680 agreed. More like my dad.
One of the BEST cowboy movies of all time!!
I think the best bill321xx.
Jones and Duval……excellent….excellent actors for this wonderful story !
Agree 100% Robert.
Lonesome Dove is my absolute favorite Western. I have read all the books watched all of the miniseries. My favorite scene in the original Lonesome Dove though is where the little Irish boy gets bit by all of the moccasins in the river it is so sad.
I dont care if it is eight hours long it will always be one of my favorites
A sentiment felt by many, including me. Thanks for watching the video Ben.
What kind of Gomer would say thumbs down to Lonesome Dove??!! Hands down, best mini- series ever! Although, North and South was running a close second.
Pretty bizarre huh John? Thanks for watching the video.
This is my favorite Western. The acting. Is superb. The books are great, too..
“A man of vision you say??!? Yeah, a hell of a vision”. The ending scene couldn’t have been any better!!
Good one Donald.
Chills every time.
one of best ever......hell of a vision....yea........walks off.....
We had a tv in our break room that only played vhs, I had Lonesome Dove, every day for lunch,and never got my Fill. Pablo
I loved watching all of The Lonesome Dove series!
Great series Sharon.
Yep here's to the sunny slopes of long ago..my heart goes out to those who never experienced them.
Every once in a while something hits the screen...large or small, that just draws you in...a work of art that you can watch time after time. The story, the feel and atmosphere and the perfectly cast characters in Lonesome Dove make for an enthralling and compelling journey through their exploits. Absolutely brilliant!
We need more people like Gus and Woodrow in the world right now.
Yep Nathan. Thanks for watching,

I used to visit Greenwood, IN every summer in the 80's and 90's to see my Aunt and Uncle and cousins. Their favorite movie was/still is Lonesome Dove. It's almost like their Bible. Haha. They quote it, learn lessons from it, etc. Not many movies have that affect ont people. My Uncle Charlie passed away yesterday so I'm gonna watch the whole thing here soon in memory. Oh yeah, and the name of the cemetery the real life Gus and Dee's are buried in is named "Greenwood Cemetery". RIP Uncle. It's been quite a party!
It has affected lots of people like that. Great movie almost universally admired.
One of the best westerns of all time!
No doubt Ted. Thanks for watching the video.
Lonesome Dove is one of my favorite westerns ❤️
Great one Kelli. Thanks for watching the video.
Thank you for liking my comment ❤️
I was a freshman in high school when the show premiered. My best friend and I LOVED this movie and still watch it to this day. In his early 20's my friend bought a replica of Gus' pistol. My friend recently passed away, and I can't share my excitement with him that I have just ordered a hat just like the one Gus wore from the same company in Texas that made Robert Duvall's Gus hat. I wish he could be here to share the excitement with me when it comes in.
I am in 100%agreement with you.Lonesome Dove is ,by far the Greatest western of all time.I could sit an watch it over an over.I was a young kid when it came out an until this day,Capt.McCrae an Capt.Call are two of my Biggest Heros😁
Yep Andy, It doesn't get any better than Lonesome Dove. Thanks for watching the video.
@@historymore442 I love the fact that Call an Augustus were based on or I should say inspired by the true lives of Mr.Charles Goodnight an Oliver Loving.I have personally visited Oliver Lovings Grave an Bose Ikards Grave in Weatherford Tx,an I've been to Goodnight Tx where Mr.Charles is resting.So much Great history here in Texas.
"Hate rude behavior in a man... won't tolerate it" - should apply today
Agreed.
I hate dawdling service also.
I so agree!
If it were more like that today there would be less problems for sure. So many laws now against giving someone a wrap on the beak it’s made a lot of men soft. Too many people would rather shoot than to knuckle up. I was born too late and raised by old school men.
It still does!
The ABSOLUTE Best Western ever filmed!
Agree. Thanks for watching Arden.
You might be right, can't say I agree or disagree, it certainly has some stiff competition, my favorites go back and forth, but if it was voted the best western of all time I would have a hard time arguing against it. I would like to mention Larry McMurtry who wrote the book and many other great books, if you don't know him, look him up, you may be surprised.
My dad & me absolutely love this western...THE GREATEST WESTERN EVER MADE IN MY OPINION.
Everytime I watch this show I think of my dad & how much that he loved Lonesome Dove & IT MAKES ME MISS HIM SO MUCH!!!
I just about give anything to watch Lonesome Dove just one more time with him.
Much love from Mobile Alabama.
It's amazing how much Lonesome Dove brings out emotions in people. A real tribute to the people who made it. At least you still have great memories of viewing it with your dad in the past. Thanks for watching the video Randy.
I love this show because I watch it so many times with my mom I lost count on how many times her and I really loved watching this she's not with me no more she passed away back in November but I continue to watch this stuff because it's in my heart cuz she's always with me and I can still enjoy these great lonesome Dove movies with her in my heart
Lonesome Dove is simply the best western ever made. There isn't any living actor who could bring Gus McCrae to life. Mr. Duval was his brilliant self in this role. I decided to read the novel after seeing it for the first time. Larry McMurtry became my favorite American author. Nobody could match the characters he created.
I have seen Lonesome Dove so many times . I Love it . Always will , and very soft spot for Mr . Jones , ever since The Eyes of Laura Mars .
It never gets old Cathy.
Greatest movie of all time! Thanks for the fond memories.
Thanks for watching the video Billy.
"Well he was a slow walker too, after that buffalo hooked him". Now THAT'S dry humour at it's best. I laughed so hard for 10 minutes, tears running down my face and gasping for breath.
Yeah Pea Eye was a well done character in LD. thanks for watching John.
My all time favorite, I can watch those scenes over and over.👍
So many great scenes in LD. Thanks for watching Marshall.
The scene where Gus rides into Blue Duck’s camp, kills everyone and rescues Lorrie Darlin’ is one of my favorites. So many to choose from I’d be hard pressed to pick an absolute favorite.
So many great scenes in LD. Thanks for watching Joseph.
Duval is on the top of the list for greatest cowboy actors!
Agree 100% Peter. Duvall is my favorite. Thanks for watching the video.
One of the best actors of all time! My all time favorite!
Clint is always number 1 in my book.
Yes him Burt lancaster there was quite alot Robert mitcham lint eastwood and more that really suited westerns
@@aliceshaw8265 - Robert Duvall was in westerns back in the late 60’s, early 70’s. He was in the original True Grit, starring John Wayne in 1969, and was in Joe Kidd with Clint Eastwood in 72.
My son read the book Lonesome Dove last month and he will have an opportunity to watch it very soon. We met Gus "Robert Duvall" when they were making the movie in Texas. They showed up at a restaurant in Pittsburg, Texas called the Hot Link Stand. I had no idea they were making this great movie. I did get the actor's Robert Duvall autograph...but at the time I did not know the significance. This is one of the most outstanding movies and my husband knows and can tell you what their lines are before they say them. Thanks for those five best scenes.
Good Story. Thanks for watching the video Connie.
Best Western of all times love it
I just loved Lonesome Dove - book and series. Perfect casting.
Perfect indeed J A. Thanks for watching the video.
This is my favorite movie as well. There were times in my life that life was getting the best of me and my only cure was to stop, close my doors to the outside world and watch the full 4 series movie of Lonesome Dove. Afterwards I was rejuvenated. Felt refreshed. Could go forward again. Taking all that awaited me. I still till this day don't understand why.
Uplifting for sure Eric.
@@historymore442 I believe I was born in the wrong time. That way of life is so much more appealing to me. I feel like I belong there. Biscuits and eggs with coffee grounds, and bacon. And even the whacking of the dinner bell. Haha.
@@ericcovington7125 Eric, I have said the same kind of words a while back. Even my parents and grandparents said, "He should have been born before us."
I eventually found true happiness in the late 1960s/early 1970s when I was most fortunate enough to find employment on American oil rigs drilling wildcat wells in the UK North Sea. Up until then I was at a total loss as to my direction in life.
I met a lot of Men from The West and especially from the Oil States and I immediately felt at home and was welcomed by those men because I respected their way of living. These men seemed to me to be just about the last of the cowboys on the final frontier.
It is all over now and coming to an end. The world is no longer the world it was some 50 or 60 years ago when I joined those Men Of The West and lived amongst them.
But, as August McRae said, according to Larry McMurty - a *truly* great author:
"If you wait, all that happens is you get older ... " [So very, very true!]
"Sometimes you turn away from someone, and then one day you look back, and all of your life has gone by ... " [This line is very special to me!]
"It took me an awful long time and very many wasted years to realise that: yesterday's gone on down the river and you can't get it back."
"What's good for me is not necessarily good for the weak-minded."
*AND* a very pertinent line from old Gus which definitely applies to me now is:
"You ain't gonna take my leg!"
Take care, Eric.
@@henrytree Late 60's? I believe everyone found happiness in the 60's. Haha. I surprised you can remember them. Not many do. Unless they served. Then they will never forget.
Such a good series. The way that Robert Duvall and Tommy Bring life to their characters is unmatched to any other I've ever seen!
Two fine actors. Great movie all around.
Still my favorite movie, ABOUT TIME WATCH IT AGAIN!!
You can never watch it too many times Doyle. Thanks for watching the video.
Definitely at least in my top 5 all time favorite westerns.
Thanks for watching the video Steve.
@@historymore442
Thanks for putting them out!!
But most moving is the tribute Call carves on Deets's makeshift grave marker: "Served with me 30 years. Fought in 21 engagements with the Commanche and the Kiowa. Cherful in all weathers, never sherked at task. Splendid behavior" Captain Call is a man of few words, so each of these words means a lot in memory of JoshuaDeets.
Good comment Jeff. Thanks for watching the video.
That quote is actually on a grave marker of a black man that worked for Charles Goodnight back in the day when they had cattle drives and he’s buried near Ft Worth,Texas.
@David Lee Actually, Deets (a.k.a. Bose Ikard) lived a full, long life working for Charles Goodnight (Woodrow's real life counterpart) and died of natural causes. The words from Woodrow's testament to Deets are the actual words Goodnight had carved into the monument he had erected for Deets.
Deets was modeled after Bose Ikard who is buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Weatherford, Texas. The exact words that Call quoted about Deets is on Ikard’s grave, placed there by Charlie Goodnight. Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving were the models for Lonesome Dove. Oliver Loving was actually brought back and is buried in the same cemetery as Ikard.
@@samcotter7320 Thanks, good to know that.
Robert Duvall was already a legend,, this movie just carved his name in granite
Great "Best Friends" movie!
Yep Allan. Thanks for watching.
@@historymore442 if you haven't read the book; please do as it adds so much to the film. I also read & enjoyed Comanche Moon, tho the mini-series was a low-budgeted, ill-acted fiasco.
@@allanpotts6765 I have read the book.
@@historymore442 then you know...
Lonesome Dove was one of the most wonderful movies ever made
Didn’t think I would ever see to much of this movie, so I guess I need to pass a few times so my appreciation for greatness can revive it’s self again. This is probably the greatest western ever made.
I think it is Buddy.
Best ever western which I have and never get tired of watching.
I loved the line "what's good for me isn't necessarily good for the weak minded" awesome!
So many great lines John. Thanks for watching.
Great line!
The best line in the whole movie and I believe is a summary of the entire story, was delivered by Gus while in conversation with Call. "It ain't dyin' I'm talkin' about, its livin'.
So many great lines and scenes Paul, it's hard to pick out the best. Thanks for watching the video.
Gus did know how to live, liked to get a "poke" and really knew how to cut cards. Funny how some things wind up going hand in hand with one another...
You are correct! Actually, a lot of the lines came straight from the book. I recommend it-- a fantastic read, and more detailed than the video series.
I pop the Lonesome Dove mini-series into the video player at least twice a year. Dawdling bartender has always been my favorite scene.
Thanks for watching the video Alika.
Well one thing about it you got to love old Gus's he always got the job done his way... love it man
Gus was quite a character James. Thanks for viewing the video.
That’s what we need for Prez and VP !
👍❤️🇺🇸
Only movie I've ever watched that was as good as the book. All four in the series are outstanding but the third, lonesome dove, was the best.
I agree Railroad. Thanks for watching.
I agree with you 100% except it's kind of hard to have a favorite
The early James Bond movies were close to the books.
To Kill a Mockingbird is another example of this. The Godfather, also--another Robert Duvall film.
@@tlhuffman Spot on, sir
The 4 books are beyond excellent. The minor characters such as Famous Shoes are memorable. A series never to be matched.
I agree Larry.
I hate to admit this, I'm 55 and have never watched Lonesome Dove. I love westerns, just never got around to watching. Think I will find it on streaming this weekend and start. Thanks.
I never tire of those scenes! Bravo! Those two are great
I'd have to agree, those are some of my favorite scenes too.
So many great ones Dusty. Thanks for watching the video.
Greatest Western ever made!
Could be used in a history class about life back then
i agree 100% Shane.
Robert Duval is one of the absolute BEST COWBOY ACTORS EVER !!!!!!!!! DAM I ENJOY HIS WESTERNS !!
the best western that was ever put on the screen 👍👍👍
Can't argue with that emery lee. Thanks for watching the video.
The series was very close to the book, and the last book, Streets of Lorado, was just as wonderful as Lonesome Dove. Pea ends up married to Laurie, and helps Call capture an evil bandit. Robert Duvall has said on more than one interview that playing Gus McCrea was his favorite role and the one he's most proud of.
Thanks for watching Peg.
as much as I love James garner I didn't care for the casting of streets of lorado..
i prefer comanche moon, Steve Zahn did a surprisingly great job as young gus, and Karl urban as call..
Lonesome Dove has long been my favorite western movie. When strong men were courageous as bulls! Gus’s mannerisms so closely mimic those of my late great father that it’s downright eerie.
Duvall was born to play Gus. Thanks for watching aerocam2.
This is my all time favorite. It touches all aspects of life. And a phenomenal cast!!
Amazing how WELL this movie has aged. Time to watch it again!
It never gets old.
Absolute treasure of a flim. My grandpa and I would watch it together. Greatest movie and memories of my life
As a grandpa myself I certainly can relate. Thanks for watching Achilles.
@@historymore442 thank you so much for your kind comment and video. It means the world to me. Thank you and thank you for posting these beautiful presented scenes of Lonsome Dove. I subbed so I'll def be around. 🙂
@@achilles6578 Thanks for the sub.
My Grandpa talked me into watching it with him in one sitting. He called it his favorite Horsesh!t and Gunsm*ke movie ever. Talked me into reading the book too. Feel the same about the novel, movie and memories as well.
Can just imagine how that was a very special time for you. My dad was 40 and mom 38 when I was born, moms folks were already gone and my dads were in Alabama and us in Texas, so i only remember meeting my granddad once and i was little then. Saw my grandma a few times but just short visits and except for stopping there briefly after bootcamp for a day or two, i was no older than 12 on the few other visits. She would fry chicken on Saturday mornings in the fall. Then sit in her recliner and watch her beloved Alabama Crimson Tide and Bear Bryant and do not interrupt her and the game. She had a picture if Bryant on one wall and George Wallace on another. Had a 2door baby powder blue 57 Chevy parked in the garage, went to Church of Christ on Sunday and the grocery store once a week. Can't remember the hwy 59/79 in front of their house. Tarrant City(Birmingham) but when she was getting on the road, other drivers better be paying attention. God must have loved and protected her a lot. That was grandma Crocker...
Never has there been a better movie made in my time. As a kid I watched Old Yellow and it was always at the top of my list until Lonesome Dove came out.
A great one for sure Donald. Thanks for watching the video.
Good taste in both cases. Old Yoller broke my 10 year old heart tho.
That last one is my favorite too. Me and my partner Crazy Joe used to love repeating it when we were drunkards. Thanks.
I remember watching this series with my Dad and Uncle Fred. Amazing memory!
To me the best is the final scene when he's looking back over his life! Loved this movie
So many classic scenes bones549. Great movie. Thanks for watching the video.
One of my absolutely favorite. I agree 100% with your picks.
Thanks for watching Judd.
Love Lonesome Dove ...Watch it every chance I get....2021
A great film Eva.
Lone Dove is probably the best western ever made. If you like westerns and never watched "Lonesome Dove" you are in for a great western experience.
I 100% agree Darren. My favorite western ever. Tommy Lee Jones was really good, but Robert Duvall was over the top great. Thanks for watching the video.
@Jake Roberts Yep, fantastic role, fantastic acting job. It don't get any better than Robert Duvall as Augustus McCrae.
Robert Duvall Is Probably The Best Actor I've ever seen. I knew several cast members and they said Robert spent time alone with his script finding the best way to deliver his lines. He Is Also A Big Fan of Country Music 🎶.
A great one for sure Gary.
Years ago I heard him in an interview on a local radio station here in San Diego. I asked him what his favorite role was and he said that it was, hands down, Gus in Lonesome Dove. Made me happy, as it is my favorite as well.
THEY asked him. Not me. I should have edited my comment better.
I have watched this movie several times and can’t wait to watch again. One of the greatest movies of all time
I agree Larry.
You start any line and I'll finish it. I'll never forget this time in my life and this movie became a part of me.
That was some great acting. I’ve watched Lonesome Dove too many times but it still gets to me.
Thank you kindly for posting what is to my mind one of the greatest western classics since the era of the duke.
I certainly agree grey man. Thanks for watching the video.
Outstanding!!! One of the best movies ever made!!!
I agree, one of the best ever. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched it. When I worked on a guest riding ranch, I shaped my hat like Gus’s, as did most everyone else in those days.
I watched this movie once a year or twice a year and never get tired of it one of the best movies I've ever seen 6 great Stars just one hell of a good movie
Well said Nichols. Lots of us feel the same way. Thanks for watching the video.
