Bonnie and Clyde Discussion Thread

Bonnie and Clyde (1967) is a film about Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, bank robbers who roamed the central United States during the Great Depression. The film was directed by Arthur Penn, and starred Warren Beatty as Clyde Barrow and Faye Dunaway as Bonnie Parker. The screenplay was written by David Newman and Robert Benton. Robert Towne and Beatty have been listed as providing uncredited contributions to the script.

The movie was partly filmed in and around Dallas, Texas, in some cases using actual locations that the real Bonnie and Clyde either robbed or used as hideouts. Only loosely based on Barrow and Parker, the film frequently deviates from the historical record. Rather, it attests more to the zeitgeist of the late 1960s, and to the lingering appeal of the legend of a group of robbers who, in the popular imagination of their disaffected contemporaries, lived out the dream of violent social rebellion.
