The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Andrew Dominik, 2007)

7/10
I'm still grappling with a score for this one...the direction, cinematography and acting were all brilliant (especially Casey Affleck who had a much harder character than Brad Pitt IMO) but the story never really grabbed me...you could argue there isn't much of a story and you'd be right. But I never found it long despite its length (2h40m) and its tendency to meander. I really liked the ending.
