It's the same music in Lonesome Dove.

You sure?

It's pretty darn close..... I was going through my westerns over the holidays. It's really, really similar. Some of it exactly the same.

Both scores (Lonesome Dove & Quigley Down Under) were done by a fellow by the name of Basil Poledouris (who did Conan the Barbarian, The Hunt For Red October). These were in back-to-back years, so I'm sure there were a lot of similarities. That happens frequently enough; if you go listen to the score for Star Trek II, and then listen to Aliens, you'll hear some similarities given that both were by the same composer.

Fun movie no doubt. Great acting by all involved. It's one of those movies that I always stop on if I come across it. If I recall correctly, the main theme in Quigley borrows from the main theme in The Sons of Katie Elder.

Now that is one of my favorites growing up

Semi related, but I still want someone to make Last of the Breed or The Walking Drum into a movie, by Louis L'Amour

Haunted Mesa would be a good one, too

Walking Drum would need more time than a feature film could give, but I think you could do last of the breed in under 3 hours.
