Romaticized retelling of bank robbers Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow and their spree across the heartland of America in the Great Depression.

An important and influential film, almost a parody of the gangster films of the past, that finally broke American film out of the last shadows of the Hays Board, and led to the New Hollywood era, where films became more frank about sex and violence. Definitely the best French New Wave made in America!
