Lonesome Dove
Lonesome Dove 384 min. NR 1989
Former Texas Rangers, Gus McCrae, (Robert Duvall,) and Woodrow Call, (Tommy Lee Jones,) are enjoying retirement on their south Texas ranch when a visiting comrade, Jake Spoon, (Robert Urich,) regales the two with tales of cattle ranching in Montana. Call is inflamed with the idea at once. (Could retirement on the ranch be too tame for a man who has lived on or near a fast horse most of his life?) Gus lets himself be persuaded to go by Call because he wants to go to Montana by way of Nebraska where a former sweetheart, (actually the love of his life,) resides, and he would go there to see her on any pretense, cattle drive included. After stealing a herd of Mexican cattle, they turn the herd north for Montana, across America of the late 1800's, with all it's dangers and beauty. Adventures rise up out of the praries to test them, from thunderstorms to hostile Indians and their interactions with buffalo hunters, calvarymen, and others of the flood of humanity crossing and settling the plains of the old west show that things are not always as they seem and each needs the other to get to Montana.
Return To Lonesome Dove 322 min. NR 1993
'Captain' Call has just buried Gus at Lonesome Dove and plans to head back to his ranch in Montana. Looking at a herd of wild Mustangs, he decides to drive them north with the help of Isom and Gideon Walker. Gideon hires Agostina Vega and Mexican Cowboys to run the Mustangs. Call leaves the drive for Nebraska and runs into Cherokee Jack and a group of Indians, which almost costs him his life. In Montana, Newt and Jasper get into a shoot out in the local bar and wind up in jail. The odds of them surviving the lynch mob are slim until Dunnegan has them freed. Newt had rescued his wife, Ferris, from a band of cattle rustlers and Dunnegan was thankful. However, Newt and Jasper will have to work for Dunnegan to keep their freedom. Newt has mixed emotions about working for Dunnegan who helps him in any way, because he also has respect for Call - who may or may not be his true father. Dunnegan has big plans for his cattle and the future. Those plans do not include those who do not throw in ...
