Now located in Manhattan, a real center of culture, our reps are seeking out those unique selections that still reverberate with us, years after their original creation.
From the classic archives, a great example of excellent Noir...Tough, and hard driving.....Relentless action, straight ahead, and steamy as well.... in this twisted tale..
Producer/star Warren Beatty
had to convince Warner Bros. to finance this film, which went on to
become the studio's second-highest grosser. It also caused major
controversy by redefining violence in cinema and casting its criminal
protagonists as sympathetic anti-heroes. Based loosely on the true
exploits of Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker during the 30s, the film
begins as Clyde (Beatty) tries to steal the car of Bonnie Parker ( Faye Dunaway)'s
mother. Bonnie is excited by Clyde's outlaw demeanor, and he further
stimulates her by robbing a store in her presence. Clyde steals a car,
with Bonnie in tow, and their legendary crime spree begins. The two
move from town to town, pulling off small heists, until they join up
with Clyde's brother Buck ( Gene Hackman), his shrill wife Blanche ( Estelle Parsons), and a slow-witted gas station attendant named C.W. Moss ( Michael J. Pollard).
The new gang robs a bank and Clyde is soon painted in the press as a
Depression-era Robin Hood when he allows one bank customer to hold onto
his money. Soon the police are on the gang's trail and they are
constantly on the run, even kidnapping a Texas Ranger ( Denver Pyle)
and setting him adrift on a raft, handcuffed, after he spits in
Bonnie's face when she kisses him. That same ranger leads a later raid
on the gang that leaves Buck dying, Blanche captured, and both Clyde
and Bonnie injured. The ever-loyal C.W. takes them to his father's
house. C.W.'s father disaproves his son's affiliation with gangsters
and enters a plea bargain with the Texas Rangers. A trap is set that
ends in one of the bloodiest death scenes in cinematic history. The
film made stars out of Beatty and Dunaway, and it also featured the
screen debut of Gene Wilder
as a mortician briefly captured by the gang. Its portrayal of Bonnie
and Clyde as rebels who empathized with the poor working folks of the
1930s struck a chord with the counterculture of the 1960s and helped
generate a new, young audience for American movies that carried over
into Hollywood's renewal of the 1970s. Its combination of sex and
violence with dynamic stars, social relevance, a traditional Hollywood
genre, and an appeal to hip young audiences set the pace for many
American movies to come.
