The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid

(1972)Directed by Philip Kaufman91 min · PGDrama, Western
“The West the way it really was!”

In 1876, the gangs of Jesse James (Robert Duvall) and Cole Younger (Cliff Robertson) join forces to rob the First National Bank in Northfield, Minnesota. Philip Kaufman stages the whole thing in a plain documentary style, with grainy light and dusty clothes, as if a camera had followed them out of the old West. Cole is the steady one, Jesse the volatile one, and the partnership runs on a trust neither man can quite afford.
