238) The True Story of Jesse James (1957) Dir: Nicholas Ray Date Released: February 1957 Date Seen: August 5th, 2009 Rating: 3.25/5
It's a real shame that this film's budding spark (yes, even the cloying interplay between "family man" Jesse and "brute" Jesse) should be tied down by such a terrible script (The exposition! The exposition! I'm drowning!). See my mention of it in my piece on One-Eye Auteurs for The Onion's A.V. Club New York.
