The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

2007 · Drama · Andrew Dominik · 2h 40m

In 1881 the last of the James gang is coming apart, and a nineteen-year-old who has read every dime novel about Jesse talks his way into the crew. Very slow, narrated throughout, more waiting than shooting.
