I'm in Charlottesville, Virginia. People here see Duvall occasionally in restaurants in central Virginia-- he owns a horse ranch here. I'm still hoping to, want to thank him for taking Gus McCrae from the excellent book by McMurtry and making him live. Dead on perfect.

Gus was such a rascally, lovable guy in this series. I taped it on VHS when it aired on tv and now have the DVD set. I bet I get the bug to watch it at least twice a year. Sometimes, I watch the whole thing start to finish! Wipe out a whole day!! Thanks for posting this. The music is amazingly fitting. Never would have guessed it without actually hearing it. VERY WELL DONE!!

Thanks for the tribute, Lonesome Dove was the finast thing ever produced for commercial television. As a Texan, I can tell you, Gus & Woodrow cut right to the heart of what the Texan character is all about. You cannot help but be moved by these men.

In his own words, Duvall describes Capt. Augustus McCrae as the greatest character role of his life, "Better than Hamlet"....words from the master! The Horton Foote character, down and out country singer legend Mac Sledge from 'Tender Mercies' (1982) was perfect preparation for the greater complexities and depth of Larry McMurtry's Gus, while picking up on the same basic values of moral choice, loyalty, and friendship, fading fast now in the West Texas I loved.

Really like how Duvall played it. Always at least the hint of a good natured smile, never more serious than the situation called for, never afraid to make a decision or deal with a problem or to be one for someone who deserved it, always confident (because he'd earned the right to be) and entirely comfortable in his own skin. Damned fine actor Duvall, and I believe human being.

Growing up favorite Cowboy characters were played by Clint Eastwood - That quickly changed after the Lonesome Dove debut - Then it was Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones with the timeless characters of Agustus McCrae and Woodrow F. Call. After all these years I still like to pop in the video and sit back and enjoy the movie all over again. Out of all the series that followed, only Comanche Moon comes close to Lonesome Dove

It's one of my cherished memories. He died a month ago so unexpectedly at home. He was the stongest and best man I ever knew and he reminded me of Gus with his strong, kind and irresitable way of just being himself. Thanks for this video. I love it.

Fun fact on that: Lonesome Dove was initially a screenplay conceived by McMurtry back in the early 70's before it was a novel and miniseries. And John Wayne was slated to play Captain Call, Jimmy Stewart Gus, and Henry Fonda as Jake. It never got made because for whatever reason Wayne didn't like the screenplay (which bare in mind was not the novel we know today but a watered down story about the three same characters) McMurtry revisited the project a decade later in the early 80's and it became the novel we know and love.
