Was the movie pure country a true story?

Answer 1

While"Broken Trail" isn't based on a true story per se, it's based on various and sundry events that took place in the Old West from roughly 1866-1900.

Just like "Lonesome Dove" is loosely based on the real life sagas of famed Texas Cattlemen Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving.

Example- When Oliver Loving was ambushed by Comanches in New Mexico Territory in 1868, he developed gangrene in his leg and died in Santa Fe.

His partner Charlie Goodnight had him placed in a lead lined coffin and then carried his body from Santa Fe to Weatherford, Texas (Outside Fort Worth) to be buried in the family plot.

And quite a number of Chinese Women were brought to America on the pretense of "Domestic Workers" but were actually sold into prostitution instead.

Also, from the end of the US Civil War until the beginning of WWII, quite a number of wild mustangs were rounded up from South Texas to Western Oregon to be sold to both the US and various Foreign Militaries including Great Britian.

So in closing, while "Broken Trail" isn't based on a real story, there are a number of real life events that inspired it.(The person that wrote this mixed it up with Lonesome Dove, Good Ole Boys, and Broken Trail. Broken Trail is basically based on a true story and has an epilogue in the end of the story to tell what happened to the people it was about).
