In a way it ruins westerns because it got everything right. Its hard to watch another western without measuring it against Lonesome Dove. I wonder if they knew what they were making while filming.
A good many years I bought the book at JFK before boarding a flight to the UK! I swear to God that the 7hr long haul lasted about 30mins,When we eventually got to see the movie in the UK I don't think that I have ever been so entralled by a western! As John Wayne once said about the way the west is portrayed in films, Yeah. Maybe Its not the way it was! but its the way it should have been! I bow in no one in by belief that Robert Duvall is the greatest actor I have ever seen in a western.
THANK YOU MELISSA! IT WAS GREAT! IT MADE ME SMILE EAR TO EAR! SINCE I SAW THIS MOVIE TWENTY YEARS AGO AND SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR SINCE, IVE TAKEN SO MUCH OUT OF IT, AND HAVE USED IT IN EVERYDAY LIFE. IN MY OPINION, ITS NOT THE BEST WESTERN EVER, ITS THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE ON THIS GREEN EARTH. THANKS AGAIN!
Every time I watch LD I find myself wishing just once in my life I could accomplish something as perfect as Duvall's performance in this movie. But that's probably not possible. Ah, well ....
I was lucky when reading the book. TV was running ads for this upcoming mini-series. I got to picture Robert Duval & Tommy Lee Jones as I read. Worked out perfect. The series was so true to the book. Thanks, InVino, this was good.
Gus McRae is one of the greatest characters in all literature. The movie is the best mini series ever made for tv. Robert Duvall was made for the role as were Tommy lee Jones, Danny Glover and the rest of the cast.
You did a fine job of putting this video together. We enjoyed it. Robert Duvall as Augustus McCrae is one of the best castings ever. Thanks for posting it.
Growing up favorite Cowboy characters were played by Clint Eastwood - That quickly changed after the Lonesome Dove debut - Then it was Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones with the timeless characters of Agustus McCrae and Woodrow F. Call. After all these years I still like to pop in the video and sit back and enjoy the movie all over again. Out of all the series that followed, only Comanche Moon comes close to Lonesome Dove
I was reading the book at about the same time trailers were running on the upcoming tv miniseries Lonesome Dove. So I was able to picture Robert Duval and Tommy Lee Jones. It worked out great. The miniseries was almost dead on with the book.
There is a place in heaven where I get to be Gus. If I am really good down here that is what I get when I go up there. Forever. Thanks Gus. Thanks Bobby Duvall.
There is a place in heaven where I get to be Gus. If I am really good down here that is what I get when I go up there. Forever. Thanks Gus. Thanks Bobby Duvall.
@trishistory I still love this. I was thinking about Gus today and his last words. It doesn't really matter how bad things seem to get, in the end, someone will remember us for a little something that we've done. I was thinking what a great finale that would make to a funeral for a real cowboy. Most of the people in the church wouldn't get it. It would make a great send off. Thank God he had his friend. in the end.
great tribute.... not sure about the seger music, but i know you had a reason for that. but it's a great vid. glad you made it. brings back warm memories. duvall is a master, and this was his best role of all time.
Great job! What would the world be like today if we had men like this running the country? Good or Bad, things would get done. This movie is one of the best. Thanks!!
Thanks for this. Me and my Dad(passed away in 2005) watched this movie over and over. It was so special to us. I've only watched it once since, it was mighty tough.
Whole cast, but especially Duvall were just tremendous. What an epic.
Thank you to the creator of this video, Lonesome Dove is my favorite movie (and book) and you have really captured the essence of Augustus. I get tears in my eyes every time I watch this.
Excellent book! A friend suggested it to me and I fell in love with most of the characters. Each is flawed yet beautiful in their own way. After reading the book, watching the movie brought each of these characters to life.
i saw this miniseries awhile ago and was blown away but it...still am...best western best friendship movie ever!...this is such a perfect tribute for gus! i was so sad when they killed him off
Yes, he has a great resume. He's contributed to some of the best movies Hollywood has made...but I know Robert Duvall...and I have never met a more despicable human being. It's a shame that we think of actors as the characters they portray. Gus McCrae was aces....Robert Duvall is a pale imitation. In truth, he is to be pitied. The star system can suck the soul out of anyone, I guess.
I live near him in Middleburg, Va. I have seen him many times at functions here. I've been to tango dances at his farm. Met his wife, Luciana, as well. He was a gracious host, and quite charming, to boot. I have also seen him when he was berating someone on another occasion. He smiled after reducing this woman to tears. He call a neighbor of mine a "f...ing c..t" . He has a reputation of hitting on women of any age while on a set. Gus McCrae was a great role for him.DuVall is not Gus.
Who cares? Why not just say:.he had a good role in the movie? Why feel you have to qualify your opinion by saying who've you met and where you've been? You think anyone really cares what YOUR opinion of this man is? The posts are about his character roll, what a great job he did, the movie, the role he played . Who are you? I've always had the thought...I was born with a brain. I'll decide what I think of someone based on my observations
Absolutely the best Western ever made.I have watched it twice a year since it came out. I have all the books in the series, first printing,first edition, signed by Larry McMurtry. I have been to Adobe Walls where Gus shelters with Lorie. It is a very desolate place. I would just like to say that this video is a fantastic tribute to a great character and wonderful book. Thank you so much Melissa for posting this. It is good knowing there are so many other people who love Lonesome Dove.
Where have all the Gus McGraes gone. This was the kind of man Texas and this nation once produced. That kind is gone and soon what is good about this nation will be gone.
something I love about Gus is that he was so tough and a hard core fighter, but when it came to his friends, Clara or Lorie, he was gentle and kind. I especially loved it when he was consoling Lorie as she was crying after he rescued her.
i thing they ware all enjoying been part from this movie . They are so good its like you dont watch movie but something hapaning in front of you , great respect for those people .i have bout parts 1 and 2
Uno de los mejores, sino el mejor film sobre los hitos de la conquista del oeste norteamericano. R:Duval: un grande . tenemos la suerte de tenerlo residiendo en Argentina. Lo entrevistamos en Observatorioia con gran placer.
This is one of the great movies ever made, and Larry McMurtry is one of the great writers. Nothing fancy about him or Duvall, just sheer excellence, and knowledge.
InVinoVeritas007. You wrote what you did with such humanity that I know if you watch it through you will love it. It's a bit slow to start but it really develops.
Robert Duvall playing Gus McCrae will be remembered along with Gregory Peck playing Atticus Finch: great men and heroes of a long-forgotten stature. Today, everyone's an environmentalist astronaut saving Planet Earth from global warming and asteroids.
Bob Duvall's Gus McCrae is a monument to great acting and great storytelling.
presioza cancion para una presioza pelicula de gran elenco , nunca la olvidaremos pues yego en su momento y se mantiene igual bella creacion sin lugar a dudas ojala y que se siga manteniendo por siempre, de verdad,
i cannot pull this movie out of my dvd collection without watching the entire six hours of the damn movie. and it always makes me shed a tear. never gets old, one of the best movies ever
This video is AWESOME. I have loved Lonesome Dove since I first saw it and read the book. I have seen it so many times and love it so much it feels like Gus & Call are my "family"! Great job!
My mom has basically worshiped this book and then mini-series since the 80s, and because of her, I have been exposed to it. Gus (Duvall) is the man I want to be when I'm his age. thats all I will say.
Gus was such a rascally, lovable guy in this series. I taped it on VHS when it aired on tv and now have the DVD set. I bet I get the bug to watch it at least twice a year. Sometimes, I watch the whole thing start to finish! Wipe out a whole day!!
Thanks for posting this. The music is amazingly fitting. Never would have guessed it without actually hearing it.
To say that I was sceptical about the mix of that song with "Lonesome Dove" would be an understatement, but it DID work somehow! I've heard that not only did Robert Duvall say that this was his favorite role ever but that Shakespeare himself never created a character better than Augustus McCrae. It's such an amazing performance in such an outstanding film(I KNOW that it was technically a mini-series, but to ME it's an EPIC Film)that I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.
3 years later and I still like to revisit. :)

However, I like Gus best when I can hear his voice. Boy, though, you really captured every expression perfectly.
I can not imagine how long this took you. But on behalf of Mr. Duvall, as a fifth grade teacher, and without his permission, GREAT JOB.

Everyone needs a "Gus" in their lives. Someone to talk to. Someone to save you. Someone to make you laugh, and someone to really piss you off *lol*.

Robert Duvall playing Gus McCrae will be remembered along with Gregory Peck playing Atticus Finch: great men and heroes of a long-forgotten stature. Today, everyone's an environmentalist astronaut saving Planet Earth from global warming and asteroids.
Bob Duvall's Gus McCrae is a monument to great acting and great storytelling.
Nice video!

Thank you for your commentary, RestiveBob.
And to think Robert Duvall was 'Boo Radley' in 'To Kill a Mockingbird, alongside the Great Greg!!

Excellent song choice here. Have to say, this is one of my favorite movies - and Duvall and TLJ are my two favorite actors...

This video is AWESOME. I have loved Lonesome Dove since I first saw it and read the book. I have seen it so many times and love it so much it feels like Gus & Call are my "family"! Great job!

My mom has basically worshiped this book and then mini-series since the 80s, and because of her, I have been exposed to it. Gus (Duvall) is the man I want to be when I'm his age. thats all I will say.

I want to see this in a "high quality version" Please...
What software did you use to put this together? Outstanding award winning editing!!! You have captured it for all of us.
Being Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for your vision!

Gus was such a rascally, lovable guy in this series. I taped it on VHS when it aired on tv and now have the DVD set. I bet I get the bug to watch it at least twice a year. Sometimes, I watch the whole thing start to finish! Wipe out a whole day!!
Thanks for posting this. The music is amazingly fitting. Never would have guessed it without actually hearing it.
VERY WELL DONE!!

To say that I was sceptical about the mix of that song with "Lonesome Dove" would be an understatement, but it DID work somehow! I've heard that not only did Robert Duvall say that this was his favorite role ever but that Shakespeare himself never created a character better than Augustus McCrae. It's such an amazing performance in such an outstanding film(I KNOW that it was technically a mini-series, but to ME it's an EPIC Film)that I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

Agreed. Larry McMutry did a materful job on the novel and the mini seris was incredibile. Loved Gus.
