bonnie and clyde

BONNIE AND CLYDE (1967)

Arthur Penn directed young rising stars Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway in this stylish and memorable retelling of the infamous depression-era bank robbers Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. Standard-setting for violence and sexuality in its day, Bonnie and Clyde was criticized for its glamorization of crime, but beneath its flash and atmospherics the viewer will find solid acting and compelling story-telling.

The top drawer cast includes: Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, Michael J. Pollard, Gene Hackman, Estelle Parsons, Denver Pyle, Gene Wilder, and Dub Taylor.

Ten Oscar nominations; two wins (Best Supporting Actress and Cinematography).

BONNIE AND CLYDE was nominated for the Best Picture award.

Director Arthur Penn's, "Bonnie and Clyde," is a powerful, unforgettable look at the criminally exciting life and tragic fate of a criminal couple.
