Times change, Monte Walsh doesn't. For him, being a cowboy isn't a job, it's a life. And that's something the fenced-in, corporate-bean-counting ways of the onrushing 20th century must never alter. Tom Selleck plays Monte, struggling to continue the life he knows while seeing the new era nudge the cowboy way toward history's dustbin. Lonesome Dove Emmy winner Simon Wincer directs this Western featuring a superb supporting cast and based on a novel by the author of Shane.

Summary: Best dang western actor, I think
Comment: Don't know why I'm asked to review this movie by Amazon...computers don't make mistakes right? But I recently found a Tom Selleck 3 movie set at Walmart that had the Monte Walsh movie. I'd seen the old Lee Marvin version a few times but I thought Tom was excellent in this great story.
I highly recommend Tom Selleck as a Western star. He's super and to me has only two equals -- Tom Berenger and Sam Elliot.
Oh yes, by the way, all the actors were great in this and I was very impressed by George Eads as Shorty. Isabella Rosellini was super, too.
The Carradines are always great too. I heartily commend and recommend all the TNT western movies and I am no relation to Ted Turner.

Summary: Selleck is wonderful in this timeless movie
Comment: You don't have to love westerns to appreciate Monte Walsh. There's times where we all might feel a little overwhelmed with modern changes and Selleck's character is no different.
He holds true to himself and his cowboy "code" that so many others lose along the way.
It's a beautiful film with Monte experiencing the highs and lows we all go through in life,; hard work, good times, celebration and loss. All this while the world around him changes. I personally think this is one of the most emotionally touching movies he has made. It really does have everything you look for in a good film.
I truly feel Mr. Selleck is one of the best story-tellers of our time. He reminds me a little of Gregory Peck or Gary Cooper. Boyish at times, yet has presence about him of honor and sincerity. It shows up in all his roles.
I hope Mr. Selleck continues to make these movies. This is the only way I know how to not intrude on someone's privacy, but to say thank you at the same time.
I identified with this movie so much, I actually bought several to give as gifts to friends and family who appreciate a good story.
They loved it, and I'm sure you will to.
