Broken Trail was a great story, very well written, and so perfect for
Robert Duvall. It's like it was written for him. Well, we found that the
writer, Alan Geoffrion, is a personal friend of Robert Duvall and did
write the story with Duvall in mind. All I can say is thank you Alan
Geoffrion for such a good story and for bringing Robert Duvall back to
the western theme for us to enjoy.
When Broken Trail first ran on T.V. I missed parts of it because it
started too early. I have satellite T.V., and the schedule is based on
east coast time. With satellite I was able to appreciate the
cinematography though; beautifully shot. I wasn't able to see Broken
Trail continuously, and really appreciate the story until I got the DVD. My
wife watched it with me and Broken Trail became her all time favorite
western, and one of mine too.
Robert Duvall / Print Ritter wore a hat similar to the Gus McCrae /
Lonesome Dove hat. I should say slightly similar as the one thing they
have in common is that the crown creases lower in the front. The crown
is slightly taller for Gus McCrae, but the most distinctive difference is
the curled edge on Print Ritter's as in Broken Trail.
If you combine the Lonesome Dove / Gus McCrae hat with the brim
from our Josie Wales you'd have the Broken Trail. Well, that's exactly
what we've done for years, but Robert Duvall made it look good, and
made it popular.
If you want the best match for color order our sand. Our silverbelly
is a very nice color but is much lighter than the movie hat.
