Yes, I reallly enjoyed Bonnie and Clyde, I sent fora copy of this movie, because I am currently Taking an American Film and culture Coarse at OCC (Onondaga Community College) and it was a required film that i had to watch, and analyse.We had quite a class discussion on the time period as well as the style of the movie.The Movie and characters were quite entertaining.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
Bought it to watch again because I had read that the portrayal of Frank Hamer was borderline defamatory . That turned out to be true the way they portrayed one of the greatest Texas Rangers . Warren Beatty's acting at high school level .

Like, this was a real good movie, not excellent, but better than just good. The acting, the screenplay, the storyline, it was all real quality stuff. This guy, like, Warren Beatty, he plays the Clyde role real well, like he's some kind of upstart or something, just like the real Clyde was. And Faye Dunaway plays the babydoll, Bonnie Parker. She gets down, makin it happen, anyway she meets Clyde and it isn't long before they be raising cain. One thing, having Gene Hackman play Clyde's brother, like, no way could Warren beatty's brother be Gene Hackman. Anyway, Bonnie and Clyde meet, and race across the countryside, robbing banks and shooting people up during the Depression era. It was all just like how it all really went down, like in real life. And the Michael Pollard guy, his character played the 5th wheel real well, a real loser type who hooks up with Bonnie and Clyde and tries to be a big shot, even though he's clearly small-time. In the movie, they take the Texas Ranger and make a fool of him, taking his picture, and Bonnie gettin down with him while they photograph it, and the ranger can't do anything to stop it cause he's handcuffed, well, in the end, that Texas ranger tracks down Bonnie and Clyde and they set them up, set em up so bad that when the Law catches up with Bonnie and Clyde, they shoot them up with Thompson machine guns. Man, I tell you, they shot up Bonnie and Clyde so bad, when they were done, Faye Dunaway was more bullet than woman. Overall this is a good movie, and it can make an otherwise lousy evening pretty good. I'm Captain James T Kirk, over and out. Beam me up, Joe!Read full review
I had seen this movie years ago, probably at the theater when it came out and remembered enjoying it. As an avid reader of true crime books & bios, and having just finished a bio on Bonnie & Clyde, I thought I'd enjoy watching the movie again. My winning bid made it possible to actually own it (the price was right!). I watched it the night I received it and again enjoyed it. Beatty & Dunaway are both excellent in their roles, the movie is entertaining and the action scenes (for their day) were very good. However, you must realize that this is a movie and not the true story of two of the eras most daring robbers. For that get the book. Would I watch it again, probably in a year or two. I have also let my friends borrow it and they also enjoyed it. I recommend the movie and gave it four stars & not five only because it's not their actual life story.Read full review
Bonnie and Clyde is a classic movie from the 1960s that reflects the time period in its plot and it's aura. Throughout the film, Bonnie, Clyde and their gang fight to break free from the expectations, limitations and ideals that their parents generation pushed on them. As a result, it emulates the way youth grew up and thought during the 60s - very rebelliously. The film itself is a push away from the happy-go-lucky films which had come before it, similarly rebelling against conventional film storylines. The film is thought-provoking and offers insight into the way of life during the 60s. Besides this, the acting is spectacular (Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty SHINE in their roles as Bonnie and Clyde) and the cinematography, direction and editing emphasize the message of each story within the film and make even the little scenes full of depth. It is a spectacular beginning to the GANGSTER FILM genre, before the mob came into play. A great one, recommended to all who love watching good films.Read full review
