The 2007 movie The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford follows Jesse James' last days before being killed by Robert Ford. Jesse James is played by Brad Pitt while Casey Affleck plays Robert Ford. The movie shows James as moody, unpredictable and very paranoid. Robert Ford grew up idolizing James. As the title states, this doesn't end well. The movie itself is a bit slow but does a good job of developing the characters. There's definitely a slow build up and uncomfortableness as you know what is coming. The movie does wrap things up with Robert Ford's life after killing James which is a good way to wrap up the story. Not a movie I'd watch again but it is fine for what it is.
