In the Emmy Award-winning miniseries Lonesome Dove, the unforgettable character of Augustus/Gus McCrae (Robert Duvall) steals the scenery as he spends some time with friend and beautiful prostitute, Lorena Wood (Diane Lane), before being confronted by his archenemy, Blue Duck (Frederick Forrest), the son of Comanche war chief Buffalo Hump and his Mexican captive.
"If you want one thing too much it's likely to be a disappointment. The healthy way is to learn to like the everyday things, like soft beds and buttermilk and feisty gentlemen." Lorena didn't answer. She shut her eyes and let Gus hold her hand. -Larry McMurtry's (Lonesome) Dove Novel
Lonesome Dove is a 1985 Western novel by American writer Larry McMurtry. It is the first published book of the Lonesome Dove series and the third installment in the series chronologically. It was a bestseller and won the 1986 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. In 1989, it was adapted as a TV miniseries starring Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Duvall, which won both critical and popular acclaim. McMurtry went on to write a sequel, Streets of Laredo (1993), and two prequels, Dead Man's Walk (1995) and Comanche Moon (1997), all of which were also adapted as TV series.
This six-hour miniseries, based on a Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Larry McMurtry, revitalized both the miniseries and Western genres, both of which had been considered dead for several years. Lonesome Dove earned 18 Emmy nominations and inspired a pair of miniseries sequels as well as two attempts at an ongoing television series.
