Five years ago thre was a wedding. It was a good wedding. It didn’t rain until the final hours. But what we remember most was the bride’s dress, copied for a 200-year old original.

BEHIND THE DINGUS PROJECT 

We love the bad guys. A new Brad Pitt film revives an American love affair with violence. But Pitt is only one of a host of actors, famous and forgotten, who have played Jesse James in film over much of the last 100 years. We explore the film history of the nation's best known murdering outlaw.
