Monte Walsh (2002)
Monte Walsh is a 2002 remake of the 1970 movie which starred Lee Marvin as Monte Walsh and Jack Palance as Chet Rollins. Initially airing on the TNT Network, the remake stars Tom Selleck as Walsh and Keith Carradine as Rollins. Despite the presence of firearms and gunfights this is actually a melancholy story about the end of the open range cattle days in Montana in the 1890's.
