a little idea

"When did you know this?" "I knew it as soon as I saw you"

After this dialogue appeared, I began to watch this movie seriously, and there was more love at first sight and destiny between them. The two have compromised with each other along the way. When the two quarreled because of Blanche, Bonnie blurted out that Clyde "can't", and would immediately regret admitting to him; in order to keep Bonnie from leaving her, even if she knew that Bonnie's mother There are police nearby, and Clyde agrees to visit her mother; Bonnie, even though she doesn't like Blanche, agrees to have Blanche's share of the spoils. So I think the two have nothing to criticize in terms of love, they are very equal, and they are each other's good lovers.

Although it is not a typical villain image, the desperate mandarin ducks, the only support for each other, make this story more interesting.

The image of Bonnie in the movie gave me more space to think, and the two scenes that left the deepest impression on me: starting from Moss's house to buy things in town, buying a beautiful doll ornament, and chatting with Clyde, Sharing joy, ordinary life happens to "wicked people", there is a moving impulse - everyone is just ordinary people; in the end, on the ambush path, the birds in the forest startled, Bonnie was not alarmed, but It's smiling, life is so vibrant, it seems to be free from the burden of being wanted, and the good life continues to move forward and continue...

Suddenly, it was cut off, and before dying, they looked at each other.

When "villain" is praised as a hero, "decent" is written as a villain, which is interesting, and is the type that the general public loves to watch.

Bonnie and Clyde are no longer themselves, but a cultural image, wrapped in the imagination of the creator, the audience, and whitewashed by history.

Bonnie and Clyde quotes

  • [about Bonnie's poem]

    Clyde Barrow: You know what you done there? You told my story, you told my whole story right there, right there. One time, I told you I was gonna make you somebody. That's what you done for me. You made me somebody they're gonna remember.

  • Clyde Barrow: Alright. Alright. If all you want's a stud service, you get on back to West Dallas and you stay there the rest of your life. You're worth more than that. A lot more than that. You know it and that's why you come along with me. You could find a lover boy on every damn corner in town. It don't make a damn to them whether you're waitin' on tables or pickin' cotton, but it does make a damn to me.

    Bonnie Parker: Why?

    Clyde Barrow: Why? What's you mean, "Why?" Because you're different, that's why. You know, you're like me. You want different things. You got somethin' better than bein' a waitress. You and me travelin' together, we could cut a path clean across this state and Kansas and Missouri and Oklahoma and everybody'd know about it. You listen to me, Miss Bonnie Parker. You listen to me.
