DVD Reviews of Lonesome DoveDVD Review: Lonesome Dove-Great movie Summary: 5 StarsThe movie was GREAT. I had heard about it over the years, but this was the 1st time for me to see it.Robert Duvall was perfect.
DVD Review: Buyer Beware! Summary: 1 StarsI rate this miniseries a 5 Star, but this so-called "widescreen" version a 1 Star since it is not widescreen. It is cropped full screen. You are actually seeing less than the full screen version.
DVD Review: Best movie ever made Summary: 5 StarsPrior to Lonesome Dove, Gone With The Wind was my favorite movie. But my favorite now is Lonesome Dove. It is well written, produced, directed, edited, and the music is so fantastic!
L.D. probably has more memorable one-liners than any movie ever made. And I am glad it was made as a mini-series rather than a movie, because we get six hours of enjoyment, which is three or four times more than if it were released in theaters. I cannot heap too much praise on this classic . . .
DVD Review: lonesome dove - blu-ray Summary: 5 StarsMy all-time favorite movie series. I started with vhs format to dvd and now on Blu-Ray. It makes viewing the best you could ask for. Duvall & Jones paired together in this series have no equal. The closet second would be Duvall & Costner in Open Range.
DVD Review: Great Western Summary: 5 StarsThis is, without a doubt, the best western ever made. Two of our greatest actors brought together and it is a perfect fit. I would recommend this to anyone without hesitation.
Description of Lonesome DoveEpic western about two former Texas rangers who leave the south Texas town of Lonesome Dove on a cattle drive to the lush ranch country of Montana. Genre: Westerns Rating: NR Release Date: 21-OCT-2003 Media Type: DVD Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones star as Gus McCrae and Woodrow Call, aging cowboys and former Texas rangers and who organize a 2,500 mile cattle drive for one last great adventure in this excellent 1989 miniseries adaptation of Larry McMurtry's novel. The best friends, who steal the herd from a gang of Mexican cattle rustlers, drive their herd from Texas to Montana, battling horse thieves, angry Indian tribes, and a renegade half-breed killer named Blue Duck (Frederic Forrest) on a mission of revenge. The excellent cast also includes Robert Urich as cardsharp and former Ranger Jake Spoon, Anjelica Huston as McCrae's old flame Clara Allen, Danny Glover, Ricky Schroder, Diane Lane, Chris Cooper, D.B. Sweeney, Steve Buscemi, and even a small role for author Larry McMurtry. Australian director Simon Wincer shows a tremendous capacity for balancing sweeping drama and intimacy against the gorgeous landscape of the American Southwest, giving a grandly epic feel to the film despite its small-screen target and limited budget, and for forging memorable characters of even the smallest supporting parts. The heart of the drama belongs to McCrae and Call, memorably etched by Duvall and Jones as the last of the range romantics. In the age of revisionist Westerns, this excellent cattle-drive drama nicely maintains an old-fashioned feeling while still showing the dark side of the American West. Winner of seven Emmy Awards and responsible for two miniseries sequels (Return to Lonesome Dove and Dead Man's Walk) and a TV series. --Sean Axmaker
