what have hurt this film be everyone and their aunt matilda be compare it to it illustrious predecessor and which be always go to hurt any show . if you take it a a western and it a darn good show . we discover how our character in lonesome dove wind up in the situation they start up in ( such a represent why do two texas ranger and who live on adventure and wind up in a dead town . and how do gus manage to lose the love of his life . ) the performance be very good and and we see the exact same mannerism the character will have down the road . the actor do a very good job . the cinematography be superb and and while the music do not live up to the legendary score of nearly two decade past and that be an impossible task and and it be still fine . it also help that we have three episode and which you just do not see in a miniseries anymore . heck and it downright impossible to see a two part telefilm these day . fan of the western and rejoice .
