Bonanza – The Duke

1. Who are the characters in this show by name?

As I find, this film was directed by Robert Altman; it was also

written by Mathdile Ferro and William R. Cox.

There are around 20 characters in this show, the main characters

are The Cartwrights. They consist of Ben Cartwright, Hoss
Cartwright and Little Joe Cartwright. Each character was role by a
famous actor.

Lorne Green acted Ben Cartwright.

Dan Blocker was Hoss Cartwright.
Michael Landon: Little Joe Cartwright.

There are some supporting actors like Joe (Al Christy), Brunette
Saloon Girl (Betty Endicott), Cowboy in Blue Shirt (Bill Clark)
and
so on.

2. Which character is your favourite character and why?

This is the first time I have watched this show, however, I have a
great impression of its characters. If I had to select just one
character, I would choose Ben Cartwright because of two main
reasons: this character was role by a famous actor and this man
gives many meaningful stories for watchers like me.

First of all, this character acted by Lorne Green, who is a famous

actor in America, has devoted many shows and movies. He was
born in Canada, but he left Canada in the early 1950s for a film
career in Hollywood, and he began appearing regularly on
television. His greatest successes came in two television series, the
long-running “Bonanza” and the science-fiction series “Battlestar
Galactica”. He died at age 72 of pneumonia following heart
surgency in California, USA.

The second reason is that this man has a lot of life lessons. As you
may know, Ben Cartwright is one of the main protagonists of
“Bonanza”. When he was young, he was a sailor with a dream to
go West and earn his living in the wild. The God-fearing and
logically-minded gentleman built his dreams on his ranch with his
wife and sons. Having no regrets, Ben faced each new day with his
strength from the last and his success.

For these reasons I have mentioned above, I am interested in Ben

Cartwright the most. Because this man gives a lot of thoughts for
me about life, dream to achieve something newly. I highly
recommend this show for you to watch.
