Definitely one of the best ever made. I bought the DVD and rewatched it last year.
“Ain’t much of a crime, whacking’ a surly bartender.”
I love watching Duvall in Broken Trail, Open Range, and Lonesome Dove. He brought a whole new style to the western genre.
The theme music to Lonesome Dove puts chills down my spine (just brought it up in iTunes). The Emmy-winning score by the Basil Poledouris is four hours long.
