Bonnie & Clyde




Bonnie and Clyde, 1967, is a move in which one can easily be swept up in. Bonnie and Clyde meet up only as change and went on a journey together. When Clyde attempts to steal Bonnie’s mother’s car, it is clear that he was her ticket out of the rundown hopeless town she was in. Clyde is a bank robber by career and Bonnie joins him to form an act. As they perform faulty but entertaining robs, like stealing from a bank that is already bankrupt, they seem to really want to live in a fantasy world with no rules. Their schemes continue as they travel across states and meet up with equally quirky (sometimes annoying) character, like a car mechanic, and Clyde’s brother and his wife. Soon, the whole gang bang tries to perfect their act while living on the run. As their antics continue, the stakes get higher and more dangerous. Quickly, their crimes are well known not only in their state, but also around the world. As Bonnie and Clyde (plus the other members of the gang) and their fame grow hungrier for more action, their relationship changes and they doubt morality of their career.


  Bonnie and Clyde have a carefree and somewhat reckless attitude. This charisma makes them likeable and amusing to watch. This Hollywood movie is different from previous ones in that the “bad villains” are rather comical and have some moral consciousness to them. Even though they do rob banks, they mean no harm to most people rather they just want a better life than what their bank accounts could afford.
