about ten years ago i was bored at home and got this on vidro,i did not know anything about it,now i must have seen it about 15 times and its the greatest cowboy movie of all time,i never get sick of it and watch it about twice each year
I agree proffromgview: Duvall is a dying breed in this day and age... The man is one heck of a actor and few can replace him.. But he is also a spokesman and a statesmen to the great west not just a movie star.. That says a lot.. Love to meet him one day..
@proffromgview Yeah, the best performance on film ever. THE BEST. My life is better and my heart is bigger, no joke, because I had the good sense to relate to this book and fim. Robert Duvall is a god. ( And Diane Lane, ever since A Little Romance, has my heart - Laurie, Darlin' I reckon. )
I finished the book a few days ago. One of the best books I've ever read. I should be getting the mini-series in the mail today. Can't wait to watch it.
Excellent.. Casting Robert Duval as Augustus McCrae must be one of the greatest casting decisions ever. When you get a chance, check out the other books. They're all worth reading and are pretty good in their own right. I'm currently on the last one which takes place some 17 years before Lonesome Dove...I think.
Tim Scott was wonderful in this. As was Robert Urich. Both have passed away. And Danny Glover was great. Does anyone know what the latin saying on Gus's (Robert Duvall) grave marking was?
Unfortunately, the cast reunion has been postponed. It will be rescheduled when the financial climate improves and sponsorship funds can be raised to cover the costs.
went to the clark gallery here in austin and asked about this. The lady in the gallery said that this event had been cancelled. If any one can tell me different thanks
Great opportunity to honor a superb cast and screen writer, support a fine collection art, writings, and other archives. If you want to be a part of this party on October 2 & 3 - let me know.

Fantastic miniseries. I have a signed copy of Bill Witliff's book and treasure it for all its memorable photographs of the film.

@citationxbjfv I'm pretty sure it's the soundtrack. Just search Amazon for "lonesome dove soundtrack."

I've heard the dvd release is not up to par. Does anyone know about this ?
If ever there was a film that deserved full restoration and an archival-quality digital release, this is it.

Duvall's performance should be archived forever as a "how-to" for actors....just his use of his hands alone is magnificent. Just incredible....

"Uva uvam vivendo varia fit" roughly means that "One grape makes another ripen." Hope this helps. "Seize the day" in Latin is "Carpe Diem"

Postponed! Well shucks, there is no guarantee we will all be around at a later date to participate. Best of luck to all involved anyway.
