The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford

I didn't expect much going into this film. I knew it had gotten good reviews, but other than knowing Robert Ford was going to kill Jesse James at some point in the film I knew nothing. The movie build up the story and characters in a very engaging way. It strays away from suspense-building techniques and instead looks at the sad ruins of two murderous, self-absorbed people. We all know what is going to happen, but the development of Robert Ford from a little fanboy to scorned assosiate comes clear across and is wonderfully portrayed by Casey Affleck.

Deadwood, season 2

The plot thinkens, and I was very happy to see that Jim Beaver had gotten more to do. I have to admit that I don't know if I would have been this into the show if it wasn't for the fact that I know the majority of the actors from other things.
Deadwood is a very good show, but the shakespearean dialouge and numerous twists and turns can make the storyline hard to follow at times.
It is a great Tv-show; with strong stories and a wonderful cast.
