Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for most people.
The mood
Easygoing.
The pace
Unhurried and epic, at 2 hr 47 min.
What might put you off
  • It's long: 2 hr 47 min.
  • Made in 1949: an older pace and style.

This 12-part serial concerns the efforts of the infamous James brothers (of which Jesse was a prominent member) to become normal everyday citizens. Of course, there's no room in the Wild West for reformed outlaws, and the duo inevitably find themselves caught up in showdowns and robberies.
