Some Lonesome Dove Trivia:
* Took 16 weeks to film.
* Used between 300 & 600 head of cattle.
* 9 different towns were built. The town of Lonesome Dove was actually built on the banks of the Rio Grande and the 'stolen' cattle were actually driven from Old Mexico into Texas. The town was left standing and has been used in at least one other movie.
* Robert Duvall was originally cast as Woodrow F. Call, but he wanted to play the part of Augustus McCrea (thank goodness!).
* Next James Garner was choosen to play Woodrow F. Call but couldn't for health reasons.
* Tommy Lee Jones was then tapped to play Woodrow F. Call and the rest is history.
* Filming Locations: Texas and New Mexico.
