Monte Walsh is the quintessential cowboy—the last of a dying breed. His story takes place in the waning years of the "Old West," near the end of the 19th century. Two long-time cowboys, Monte and his best friend Chet, have their lives on the range inexorably changed by the coming modernity and a fellow cowboy who becomes involved with rustling, robbery, and killing.[1]
The film premiered on TNT on January 17, 2003.
