Louis L'Amour's easy voice with its gentle rhythm sets the tone and pace of the film in a spoken introduction to this loping, rambling three-hour-plus TV-movie adaptation of his novels The Daybreakers and Sackett. Sam Elliot stars as the elder Sackett, a nomad hunting and trapping in the mountains who happens upon an ancient treasure. Tom Selleck and Jeff Osterhage are his younger siblings, forced to leave home to avoid a Hatfield and McCoy situation. As the Sackett brothers wind their way across the Midwest prairies and mountains we join them on cattle drives and gold hunts, in gunfights and fistfights, and in a climactic showdown as they find their place in the world. This 1979 film rambles and meanders like a lazy river winding through a beautiful landscape of peaks and plains and forests, punctuated by the occasional gunfight and enlivened by a story that celebrates both the open range and the taming of the towns. Elliot looks almost young but flashes his savage eyes behind a thick black beard, while Selleck's easygoing manner is backed up with a stony-faced determination. The excellent cast includes a veritable who's who of Western character actors: Glenn Ford, Ben Johnson, Gilbert Roland, Gene Evans, Jack Elam, Slim Pickens, L.Q. Jones, Mercedes McCambridge, and Pat Buttram. Followed in 1982 by The Shadow Riders, which reunited the three stars and even a few members of the supporting cast in a tale of three different brothers. --Sean Axmaker

This movie was a gift. January 8, 2009
I actually bought this movie for my brother as a gift. He had owned it once before but had misplaced it years ago. He mentioned that he would love to see it again because it was one of his favorite movies and it is never shown on T.V. When he received it for Christmas, he was thrilled! It has to be a great movie. Why? Because my big brother is NEVER wrong!

Hairiest Western Ever December 8, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is the hairiest western ever! Never before has there been so much wet chest hair in a wash tub with dry ice....as in the scene where the brothers bathe together. (Ooooooo....kinky!). And what is up with the dry ice. Are they supposed to be bathing in boiling water?

This sums up this whole never-ending joke of a western. Lame TV at its best....which means don't bother....unless you like real hairy cowboys!

L'Amour Sacketts - Classic Cowboy November 23, 2008
I prefer Selleck's newer westerns. Still the cast in this movie is a who's who for westerns. Ben Johnson stills the show. Glen Ford is as solid as ever. The "Sackett boys" make it look easy. This is now a classic movie from the master classic western writer.

The Sacketts/ Crossfire Trail September 10, 2008
As always we received the DVD's in record time from USA. Both DVD's were excellent and as they were from Louis L'Amour's books which my husband has all of his books, we did enjoy the films.

We like buying off Amazon as we know we will get a good product.

Thank You
