Bonnie and Clyde

The much referenced movie has finally arrived on fooltheeyefoolthebrain film challenge.
We added it to the list to see why it was referenced so much and now i understand.
Bonnie is a woman who in the first scene appears naked at the window to watch a man (Clyde) try and steal her mothers car.
Bonnie asks Clyde what he does and so he tells her that he spent some time in prison for armed robbery. He shows her the gun and goes in to a store to prove it and everything kicks off from there.

Public enemies is the film that springs to mind when i think of this film. They have a similar story line. Bonnie and Clyde team up with a car mechanic and Clyde's brother and wife to form the gang that rob banks. They spend their time on the run and eventually some of them die or get arrested.

Yes it is rated 18. No it doesn't have any sex in it  unless i managed to miss it completely (which is very possible).  There is a lot of shooting but not much else so i can't work out why it is rated 18 but anyway- it is.

Warren Beatty does a fantastic job as Clyde (not to mention everything else that he does).
Joined by Gene Hackman and Faye Dunaway they create a cast that is almost equal to Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and the team that are in public enemies.
Gene Wilder as a addition to the cast makes everything perfect and I have to say that the film is excellent. It has a decent ending and a simple enough story line with nothing unnecessary.
It may be old but it is the rock of the belief that old films can be just as good as newer ones.

I would encourage you all to watch it- especially if you watch things that constantly have bonnie and clyde references in them.

Night all!
