I have yet to see the film, I'm just wondering why the writer or whoever named the film this about Robert Ford? Is it only because he shot JJ in the back? Thanks

DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE!!! THEY ARE A RIP-OFF AND DO NOT FIX YOUR ELECTRONICS!!! \n\nWe gave our Xbox 360 to them to be repaired. After having it for one week, they returned it and it was still broken... . And they do not charge $49. It was $75! We gave it back to them and they have had it for a month! They will not return phone calls and do not show up as promised to return your merchandise. We just got our Xbox back tonight and they kept the power cord, which I am sure will take another month to get back. We googled them and have their home address if anyone needs it!! They also called us at 11 pm to tell us they won't return our powercord until we take down any negative reviews about them. Don't be a victim! Full Review

I loved the part where Brad Pitt rips off Casey Afflects pants in the tent and takes him from behind ...on that cold night up in the mountains. I cried when Brad held Casey's old shirt, after he died... ..they loved each other all those years.\nWait!\nMy bad. That was another movie. I got confused because wathing this Jessie James movie hurt as much as being rammed in the butt! Full Review
