The movie takes place in the early 1900's where Bonnie Parker (Faye Dunaway), a waitress, and Clyde Barrow (Warren Beatty), ex-con, meet. They are immediately fascinated with each other and soon after begin robbing banks, which would lead to a spree of violent crime throughout the country. The viewer follows the couple through several of their criminal acts and witnesses them falling in love. This film, of very few, causes the viewer to sympathize with the characters even though they are criminals.
Bonnie and Clyde inspired many film makers to look at cinema differently. It defined New Hollywood where crime and killing could be shown.
This fast paced movie is definitely worth watching.
