Comanche Moon - The Second Chapter in the Lonesome Dove Saga (2008) (2-Disc Set)

The critically acclaimed miniseries continues with this second chapter in the Lonesome Dove saga. A prequel to the Pulitzer Prize-winning Larry McMurtry novel, LONESOME DOVE, the six-episode series COMANCHE MOON explores the lives and struggles of several Texas men and women in the old west. Steve Zahn stars as Texas ranger Augustus "Gus" McCrae opposite Karl Urban (THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING) as ranger Woodrow F. Call. Rounding out the cast and the drama are Val Kilmer as Yankee Captain Inish Scull, Rachel Griffiths (BROTHERS AND SISTERS) as Scull's unfaithful wife, Linda Cardellini (ER) as Gus's significant other, and Elizabeth Banks (THE 40-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN) as a young prostitute who has a baby by Call. The rangers team up with a collection of interesting characters in order to fight off the Comanche. Their mission revolves around tracking down three outlaws: a Comanche war chief, a Comanche thief, and a Mexican bandit.
