The first of a four-part drama series set in the 19th-century American West using the classic framework of a vast cattle drive.
Starring Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones

In the small, Texan town of Lonesome Dove, two former Texas Rangers - Gus McCrae and Woodrow F Call - quietly run a cattle and livery business. But all this changes when an old friend of theirs, Jake Spoon, arrives just one step ahead of the law, spinning fabulous tales of the vast and uncharted Montana territory.
