Description:
The names ricochet through Western lore. Jesse James (Brad Pitt) was the most notorious outlaw of his time, wanted by the law in 10 states yet celebrated as a Robin Hood in newspapers and dime novels. Teenaged Robert Ford (Casey Affleck) idolised Jesse, sought his friendship, rode with him. It wasnt enough. The up-and-comer wanted his shot at fame. And when he got it, he took it. Pitt gives a volcanic, charismatic performance as Jesse in this saga of celebrity and obsession adapted from Ron Hansens historical novel by director Andrew Dominik (Chopper). Theyre all lies, Jesse says of the stories surrounding him. A deeper, more human truth awaits in this ambitious and stirring epic film.
