Long Riders (1980)
WesternActionKrimiDramaHistorie
Der Film schildert neben dem beiderseits mit äußerster Brutalität und illegalen Mitteln geführten Kampf zwischen Pinkerton und den Outlaws – hinter denen natürlich auch diverse Gesetzesvertreter her sind – auch die politischen Hintergründe jener Zeit. Denn nur der immer noch gärende Hass der besiegten Südstaatler ermöglichte es der James/Younger-Gang nach erfolgreichen Raubzügen in aller Ruhe zu ihren Familien zurückzukehren und vorübergehend ein normales Leben zu führen. Denn ihre Nachbarn passten auf – sich nähernde Aufgebote wurden verraten, einzelne Ermittler schon mal durch eigentlich unbeteiligte Dritte erschossen.Trotzdem kann ein Leben, das weitgehend durch den Revolver finanziert wird, nicht ewig gut gehen, und so erleben wir, wie die Bande nach und nach immer mehr Probleme bekommt und schließlich in die Katastrophe reitet.
