Last Days Of Frank And Jesse James DVD

 The Last Days Of Frank & Jesse James: A Review
Firstly I have to give a warning to European buyers, although this DVD is marked as Region Free, it is actually Region 1. It was lucky one of my players here in the UK played it. Now onto the film, I have given it 4 Stars just because the cast consists of the late great Johnny Cash and fellow Highwayman Kris Kristofferson. Although Willie Nelson appears quite high up on the credits, he only has a short cameo near the end of the film. Although the film is very good and portrays the story of Frank & Jesse James quite very accurately, the only major flaw is the fact that Frank and Jesse were young men at the time of this film, and Johnny Cash is at least in his mid-fifties, which can cause a little bit of confusion here and there (for example "you're a young man Frank, you have you whole life ahead of you"... really??). Other than that, fans of Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Westerns and biopics will probably really enjoy this film, and it's deffinitely worth a look.

 Frank & Jessie
Johnny Cash is a bonafide American treasure. Kris Kristofferson the man of many talents without acclaim. The movie has a smooth quality to it. You can tell that the two men are friends. If you are fimiliar with the two men you will see other friends and family that drop in for some camera time which is kind of a kick. The production is outstanding. The scenes look authentic. The history of the events doesn't seem to far from true. The film is fun to watch. Decent story line. Certainly one of the better Jessie James films from Hollywood. The film howeve doesn't portray their violent nature. you see them as family men who just happen to be the most wanted men in the country.
