Amazon.com essential video:
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

We already had Lonesome Dove on DVD , but I couldn't resist buying it as my first Blue Ray movie. Its just amazing in wide screen and the definition is, well, WOW!!
I loved the new interviews as well, definitely worth the money

Wish I had known that this was the shortened version. The seller should have stated that is was the shorter version. I wouldn't have bought it.. I would have preferred to spend the extra money and buy the full version.

I WOULD ONLY PURCHASE VIDEO'S FROM AMAZON AS I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE OTHERS. BEING COMPUTER ILLERATE I ORDERED FROM ANOTHER ONE LISTED THREE MONTHS AGO AND STILL NOTHING. AMAZON IS FAST AND RELIABLE.....I WILL SHOP NO WHERE ELSE.

Don't look this when you're depressed and alone. It may land upon you quite hard. This fascinating but stirring story line has no happy end. The realism is uncompromising.
