The story of the notorious couple that traveled the Central United States in the years of the Great Depression committing crime after crime with their gang and living their restless burning love.
Ok, this movie may not be an exact depiction of the life and deeds of the two most badass couple in criminal history but it certainly succeeds in providing a more romanticized version of their story. Director Arthur Penn does a great job on this one, with amazing cast, perfectly chosen scenery and sets, detailed costumes and tight dialogues. The overall result is an alternative love story (the only one I would attempt to enjoy) where love is merely a substance that binds two criminal anarchists that have no respect for modern society's laws and ethics. And for that, they have my respect (if they were this way)!
Warren Beaty and Faye Dunaway are the happily married couple here. Their performances are strong and you can see that in their eyes. Anarchy, crime, easy money, passion and a twisted sense of freedom. It's all there in their eyes. Gene Hackman and Michael J. Pollard fill up the scene with equal acting! You can see why they set out to be great actors afterwards.
Must watch this : with your girlfriend/boyfriend on a hot summer night at an open , summer cinema. Then go on and do something illegal and then have sex!
