Editorial Review:
Set in the Texas Republic in the early 1840'sia time in which three cultures - Anglo Hispanic and Comanche were in furious conflict over the same harsh land we are introduced to Augustus McCrae and Woodrow Call the heroes of Lonesome Dove.Gus (David Arquette) and Call (Jonny Lee Miller) are young rangers ripe for adventure and they get it with the Texas-Santa Fe expedition an ill-conceived effort on the part of some freebooters and adventurers to capture Santa Fe and annex New Mexico.Led by the land pirate Caleb Cobb (F. Murray Abraham) and guided by the legendary Bigfoot Wallace (Keith Carradine) and his mountain-man friend Shadrach (Harry Dean Stanton) the group fights several engagements with the great Comanche warchief Buffalo Hump (Eric Schweig) is whittled down by the silent Apache Gomez (Victor Aaron) and is captured without resistance by the Mexican army. Marched south by a resolute Mexican officer Captain Salazar (Edward James Olmos) they survive bear attacks ice storms and the rigors of the barren desert known as the Jornada del Muerto.In the end they arrive at the leper colony of San Lazaro where black and white beans are drawn to determine which of the invaders will die. Accompanying the men on this trek is the colorful amply fleshed whore known as the Great Western - Matilda Jane Roberts (Patricia Childress).In Austin Gus meets the love of his life Clara Forsythe (Jennifer Garner) and in San Lazaro they encounter the great English lady Lucinda Carey (Haviland Morris) who in the startling climax helps them survive a last encounter with the wild men led by the great Comanche Buffalo Hump. br> SPECIAL FEATURES :Full screen version 2.0 Dolby surround Scene selection Digitally Mastered System Requirements:Running Time: 283 Minutes Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC.

Dead Man's Walk Reviews:
Good Show 
2008-04-06 - Not Larry McMurty's best, but neither was the book. It was good, just like the book was good. Unfortunately, there was not enough time for character or plot development. I read the book first, so I was a little biased from the start. Worth watching.
Another installment of the Lonesome Dove Saga 
2008-03-31 - Another must have if you want the entire series of the excellent movies about Lonesome Dove!

The views of the men of Lonesome Dove
2008-02-23 - My views on the gentlemen of lonesome dove.Woodrow and gus?i did not know there were so many parts to this movie,I am an die hard fan of the one with robert duvall and tommy lee jones. and only knowing this movie i never heard of dead mans walk and others as well.i was a huge fan of gus and really look up to him,but after i seen this movie and seen the pain and suffering that Woodrow went threw and how dedicated Woodrow is in his life as an ranger in and out,my respect for woodrow has grown very strong,now i see Wodrow different and with great respect,as for gus, he is more bark rather than action. i have tons of photos of robert duvall sign by him in the movies he has made, but now, well i want to take them down and put the history and images of Woodrow and study all i can on him. my love for woodrow is really strong and i will see woodrow in different eyes every time i seee him now and gus, well, yeah i still like him,but i would not fallow gus into a battle,i just dont trust him to stay and fight to the death and woodrow,well he is a man of honor and respect and thats the kind of man i would like to die next to and be proud to be his friend. I really love this movie and really change me on how i see lonesome dove stories now, so if you never seen this, PLEASE GET IT, YOU wont regret it thats for sure, this is one hell of a movie one of a kind, thanks folks,
