Roughing It
Adapted from the autobiography of legendary American writer Mark Twain, Roughing It is a compelling, poignant drama infused with an air of youthful adventure. Award-winning actor James Garner plays the irrepressible Twain, a man whose relationship with the unexplored frontier of the American West informs his entire artistic output. Adding to the fun is an all-star cast that includes Eric Roberts, Jill Eikenberry and Ned Beatty.

Mark Twain's Early Life In The Wild West - bwod
Torontonian Robin Dunne does an admirable job of playing Mark Twain as a young man, while veteran actor James Garner portrays the famous author as his elder self. There are a number of cameo appearances by other popular actors (Ned Beatty's stands out, as a viscious gunman, who provides security for the railroad.). It's a historical film based on a novel by Twain, and incidentally. was filmed in Canada! Two thumbs up - for a tv mini-series, it's very good.
