After a detour into dramas such as REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE, director Nicholas Ray returned to the Western genre with THE TRUE STORY OF JESSE JAMES. Robert Wagner (HART TO HART) starred as the title outlaw in this biopic that explored the man's origins as a criminal. Jeffrey Hunter strayed far from what would be his famous role as Jesus in KING OF KINGS to play fellow lawbreaker Frank James, with Hope Lange and Agnes Moorehead costarring as the most important women in James's life.

"[T]he result is splendid....[The film] remains an essential part of Ray's oeuvre." -- Brad Stevens , (Sight and Sound)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t's still a stunningly inventive Western, with an offbeat, folksy feel." -- Damien Love , (Uncut)

3 stars out of 5 -- "[S]hot through with moments of passion and visual grandeur." -- Philip Kemp , (Total Film)
