After years of writing crime reports, screenplays and vulgar novels, Fuller collaborated with John Irelan on his Virgo, "Kill Jesse James." The protagonist of this gloomy narrative poem is Robert Ford, played by John Irelan, who is badly hit by betraying his notorious friend Jesse James. Killing Jesse James is a portrait that combines sharpness and modesty. The remorse and spiritual guilt he seized are eye-catching. And it is also a good start for this solo director.
