deadfrett BS: Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove series (103* d) RE: BS: Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove series 18 Jan 08

I've been a fan of McMurtry's since reading the Last Picture Show. His tales of Texas and his characters have all was seemed to ring true to life. After re-reading Commanche Moon and viewing the TV version I was disappointed. Pablum for the idiot box. It seems as though aleast two thirds of the story was removed or rewritten. If they did this to the L.D. series, I can't imagine what the Berrybender saga will be like if they get that into production.
As for Master and Commander, great movie. I hope they do more of O'Brien's books.
