Based on the true story of the last failed bank robbery by the James and Younger brothers, this film is notabIe for showing the unraveling heist from the outIaws' viewpoint. THE GREAT NORTHFIELD MINNESOTA RAlD was shot in a meticuIous semi documentary styIe that brings to life the gIorious last ride of the infamous band of outIaws.
Late in the summer of 1876, Jesse James and CoIe Younger were given amnesty by their home state of Missouri; after a long and prosperous career as robbers, the dynamic duo were, ironically, proclaimed state heroes. Faced with the possibiIity of a quiet and peaceful future, the notorious ruffians had no choice but to plan one final heist at the biggest bank west of the Mississippi, in NorthfieId, Minnesota. The heist was a grand scheme pIanned with great inteIlectuaI prowess by Younger, the introverted and soft-spoken Ieader of the group, who was often overshadowed by the flashy and daredeviI kiIler, Jesse James. Together the two men executed what they thought would be a foolproof pIan--untiI the citizens of NorthfieId proved them wrong. |
