Just like the Zodiac Killer, this Jesse James is a famous person in American history. Of course, Jesse James is indeed a person, and the Zodiac Killer simply has no one known in the next life. Since it is a famous person, about his life, deeds, and how The Coward Robert Ford killed him, you can find specific descriptions on Wikipedia and various other encyclopedias. In many movies, literature, Flash and talk shows, Jesse James should appear many times as the protagonist or the first supporting actor name, and the story about him is at most a bad street theme (like In our country, the very pornographic and violent "The Deer and Ding Ding" was repeatedly shot on the street).
So, what is this movie talking about? In fact, this movie is a very real and direct description of the life of Jesse James and his subordinates, and it is not the life of robbing banks and robbing trains, but their usual life, such as chatting, spreading, cheating, being robbed by Jesse James kills and assassinates Jesse James and more. There was no grand scheme or sophisticated plan for the assassination of the sharpshooter, everything seemed like an accident, but the title of "The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford", especially its Chinese translation The name makes us feel that this is a very great thing, or what kind of conspiracy is behind it, or what kind of perverted motive and psychological transformation the murderer has.
So be it a sharpshooter, a sharpshooter, a gangster who robbed a bank, or a coward who killed the sharpshooter, their lives would be dull as water, and the film about their life would be boring, even though boring. The film does not kill people in a calm manner, but it always reflects the desperate and cowardly side of the life of its great Jesse James, which is barely expressed in the film. But if everyone thinks that the movie is talking about such boring topics as "The Gunslinger is also a human being", then of course it's okay, it's just as boring as "There can be a Gunslinger among people". Of course the movie describes something more boring, he talks about the intersection of the lives of two people (or a bunch of people), and it's a very "naturalistic" intersection (although the film is only three hours long), a lot of boring details They are all portrayed in great detail with beautiful lenses, so the film does not seem to focus on a specific person, whether it is Jesse James or Robert Ford, the film focuses on this part of their life, the assassination itself, just A label of this life, but not the core. This is very, very similar to Zodiac. Zodiac is just a tag. Although "You are what you're tagged" or "You are what you're annotated" are very popular now, there can be many tags. , and each can be inaccurate or incomplete. We can't describe a life in a few short words, or carry it through a very modern enterprise with sentences like "focusing on the process", we can only use labels such as Assassination, Jesse James, Coward, Rebort Ford to identify this a life.
