The Long Riders

[Machine Translation] The blood tidal trail is vivid, and the great guys have returned from the depths of hell! Jesse James, Cole Younger, Frank James, Ed Miller... In the wilderness after the Civil War, they organized the "James/Younger Gang," the most powerful robbery gang in history, and were the greatest outlaws who ravaged the seven western states like demi-gods. They robbed banks, trains, and stagecoaches a total of 26 times for a total of $500,000. They were the most feared and loved heroes in Western history. This true story, portrayed with terrifying grit and gravitas by Walter Hill, a stalwart of the violence school whose works include "The Driver," "The Warriors," and later "Street of Fire" and "48 Hours," is one of the greatest films ever made in the "Western" genre. The film is one of the greatest masterpieces in the genre of "Westerns" ever made. The unprecedented casting of the four outlaw brothers played by real brother stars, the violence in the climax of "The Great Minnesota Raid" that surpasses Peckinpah's, and the sense of Westerns from the New Cinema of the 1970s are all present in the film. The film is the definitive version of a man's movie that retains the western flavor of the 70's New Cinema and puts the kibosh on the westerns that were stagnant in the 80's.
