Bonnie Parker (Faye Dunaway) notices a suspicious-looking man (Warren Beatty) looking at her mother’s car one morning, and impulsively she gets dressed and they take off together, never intending to return. Recognizing their financial situation, they decide that robbing smaller shops and garages seems like an easy way to make money. It's while hitting a garage that they bring CW Moss (Michael J Pollard) into the mix, then connect with his brother Buck (Gene Hackman) and his wife Blanche (Estelle Parsons), which leads them to start robbing banks—and inevitably, someone ends up getting hurt, prompting law enforcement to take serious notice. They quickly become wanted by police across the state, though luckily for them, the officers aren't particularly accurate shooters—and their notoriety begins to increase. People celebrate them wherever they go; those struggling financially see something admirable in their “business” ventures. We know how the story ends, of course, but that’s not really a significant factor here. Arthur Penn assembled a talented group of actors, notably Parsons who is excellent as the frantic wife swept up in everything and Dub Taylor as the deceitful "Moss Snr." The level of detail is striking—the film looks fantastic, and the cars seem fragile enough to fall apart. Beatty and Dunaway have undeniable chemistry, and as the narrative unfolds, I doubt anyone could avoid rooting for them. Watching it on screen is just as diverting as hearing about all the behind-the-scenes maneuvering that went into getting this movie made.
