This movie Bonnie and Clyde takes place in the 60’s was made in 1967 but portrays real-life events from the 1930s where we see the most infamous duo of all. In the beginning of this movie Bonnie who a waitress at the time hates her job when Clyde randomly comes he attempts to steal her mother's car. But he sees how boring Bonnie life is and invites her to a life of crime. They soon become the most dangerous bank robbers of the 60’s. Bonnie was very impressed with his criminal history, while Clyde saw something in Bonnie that was simpatico to his goals in life. They joined forces to embark on a life of crimes, holding up banks, and money establishments, to make money and have a ton. C.W. was the mechanic who fixed any car that Bonnie and Clyde needed in order to get away.
In the movie, Bonnie and Clyde held a sort of a “Robin Hood-esque” social stance. They were celebrities. Their reign of criminal acts had begun when they had encountered a family and their farm hand who had been kicked from there property by the bank. They robbed that very bank to get the money for the man. They were vigilantes in a way.
I enjoyed this film because it always held that sense of “what’s going to happen next?” Throughout the entire film I was locked. I found it to be very intriguing.
