Rache für Jesse James (1940)

Rache für Jesse James: Directed by Fritz Lang. With Henry Fonda, Gene Tierney, Jackie Cooper, Henry Hull. Frank James continues to avoid arrest in order to take revenge on the Ford brothers for their murder of his brother Jesse.

“The sequel to the immensely popular u0026quot;Jesse Jamesu0026quot; (1939) as helmed by director Fritz Lang, finds Henry Fonda reprising his performance as Frank James in an entertaining,but routine revenge western.Also from the earlier cast we have Henry Hull,J.Edward Bromberg,John Carradine and Donald Meek.Jackie Cooper as Fondau0026#39;s sidekick and the beautiful Gene Tierney are nice additions to the cast.Shot in subdued Technicolor,the movie has some nice outdoor visuals.Although not as good as the previous movie,it has its memorable moments:Frank James catching up with his brotheru0026#39;s murderers performing a highly theatrical reenactment of Jesseu0026#39;s killing and the final shootout in the stable are the movieu0026#39;s highlights for me.”
