Lonesome Dove Complete Collection[DVD]

It has been many many years since I read the book and watched the original on TV so I didn't notice the missing scenes. But according to what I learned later, apparently this set is not complete.Nevertheless, it is a wonderful story. I watched in the order in which the series was filmed, but some recommend watching it in chronological order. I think I'll try that when I re-watch in a year or so.It's a shame Robert Duvall wasn't involved in the whole series. The other actors playing Gus aren't nearly as good. But my complaints are minor compared with the overall great quality of the story and filming. I highly recommend Lonesome Dove.

The orginal series with Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones is absolutely outstanding... the sequels are hardly bearable (maybe the one with James Garner is an exception). Don't bother buying the whole series, just go for the first one.

Wide open spaces, friendship bound together in danger: this is the lonesome dove collection. Beautifully filmed and very clear when watching. Also like the attention to detail- the correct attire for the period-the reproduction side arms.There are some liberties with the history- the santé fe expedition didn't quite go that way although it was a disaster, and Roy Bean was not killed on his porch, but otherwise gives some idea of what it must have been like.

The firs two of this saga L/D and the return to L/D is as good as anything you will ever see on any screen any where. ABSOLUTELY BRILIANT. Cheers Barry.

Watched years ago in the 70's stockpiling for retirement. I am sure I will enjoy again, and again . . . .. . . . . . . .. . .

No English subtitles, picture quality not great, but not the worst i've seen.Very frustrating when native indians are speaking, especially in the 1st of the saga "Dead Man's Walk".

love this

This will keep the old folks happy enough on rainy Saturdays for a good while to come :)
