“Conagher” … a made-for-TV movie, but arguably the best western ever made.

Another made for tv miniseries Lonesome Dove, by far my favorite, every character was nailed perfectly from the book.

“Conagher” — I just rented it on Amazon. Great movie! Thanks for the recommendation.

What a pairing — Sam Elliot and Kathryn Ross. The chemistry was pretty good. The death of Evie Teale’s husband was really tough and brutal. Evie and her children waiting for her husband and their father...waiting and waiting and waiting and they never knew what happened to him. That was rough.

I noticed in the credits that Angelique L’Amour had a small part as a stage coach passenger. She is the daughter of bestselling author Louis L’Amour who wrote the “Conagher” novel!
