Best of the Badmen
In the American West, in the days after the United States' Civil War, soldiers from the defeated Confederacy fight to defend their neighbors' farms from corrupt Northern corporations. Of these men, the most famous--or infamous--are the Younger brothers and the James brothers... the Best of the Badmen. In the closing days of the Civil War, a band of Confederate soldiers, Quantrill's Raiders, wage a devastating guerilla war against the Union. When their side surrenders, the men who rode with Quantrill return home--but find farmers losing everything they own to Northern banks protected by the gunmen of the Pinkerton Company. Now, these men, Jeff Clanton (Robert Ryan), Jesse and Frank James (Lawrence Tierney and Tom Tyler) and Bob and Cole Younger (Jack Buetel and Bruce Cabot) and their brothers and cousins, use the lethal skills they learned in the War to defend their neighbors.
