Bank robbers Bonnie Parker (Faye Dunaway) and Clyde Barrow (Warren Beatty) blaze across Depression-era America on a crime spree that transforms them into unlikely folk heroes. Stylish, seductive, and startlingly modern, Arthur Penn's BONNIE AND CLYDE reimagines the American outlaw myth as a lyrical meditation on celebrity, blending French New Wave influences with dark humor, romance, and bursts of shocking violence. Anchored by electrifying performances from Beatty and Dunaway, the film remains a landmark of cinema as it launched the New Hollywood movement.
