One of the best cowboy movies ever made, plain and simple.

How can anyone not give this 10 stars? A made for TV remake. I've never given such high a rating to a remake. If you're into westerns you have to watch this. Lee Marvin was great in the first one. Selleck resold this one. Great acting. Great actors. Love this movie. The characters were believable and you felt the emotion from each one. Great direction. The scenery was beautiful. I think I was born in the wrong era.

This is a made for TV movie? Hmmm, maybe I should try watching more TV.This isn't a "western," this is a work of art. Every element, every line, every character falls into place perfectly, like a work of nature, rather than a mere movie script. I guess one reason is that the pacing, the rhythm is just right.The emotions generated are uncontrived and sincere. The characters have remarkable depth. You really care whether they live or die.And like a true tragedy, you even care when a bad guy dies, having a sense that it is a waste of a life that could, and should have turned out differently.Perhaps what is so remarkable about this movie is that, like High Noon, it does not exactly have a happy ending. It is a sad but extraordinarily beautiful movie.If you haven't seen it, you may even want to buy a copy. I have seen it several times, and I have found it just as beautiful and moving each time. It is worth watching just for the extraordinary cinematography alone.

Very good western with a very strong core cast (Selleck, Rossellini, Carradine x2), and an equally good supporting cast. Strong story about the "last cowboy" and his escapades at the turn of the century.It would be nice to see Selleck and Rossellini together in another western with more screen time together. They collaborate together marvelously. Keith Carradine and Selleck are also a good combination. Director Wincer crafts a stylish show while gracefully displaying the final curtain call for this last cowboy. Not sure where this movie was shot, but the scenery was magnificent!Keep the Selleck westerns coming!
