The Assassination of Jesse James, by the coward Robert Ford

I just recently saw this 2007 take on Jesse James directed by Andrew Dominik. With Brad Pitt, Mary-Louise Parker, Brooklynn Proulx, Sam Shepard and Sam Rockwell. I highly recommend. Opening scene. go full screen. Love those muted images. The cinematography is amazing as well as the soundtrack by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis. They do a vamp on the oldie "sunrise sunset" with bells piano and violin that kills me. Also reminiscent of the Fargo soundtrack by Carter Burwell. The Train Scene.
