Outlaw Jesse James is rumored to be the 'fastest gun in the West'. An eager recruit into James' notorious gang, Robert Ford eventually grows jealous of the famed outlaw and, when Robert and his brother sense an opportunity to kill James, their murderous action elevates their target to near mythical status.

Why isn’t this Casey Affleck performance talked about more? Just as good as in Manchester By The Sea. The same goes for Brad Pitt. The most unique western out there.
