Huge rest

Before the director Arthur Penn, probably no one treated a bandit movie as relaxed and ridiculous. You know that sooner or later, it will be a road of no return, just like "Born Murderer" and "The End of the Wild Flower", the road to the end, flying to the cliff. You think you are just a cold-eyed bystander like the old god, just waiting for 110 minutes to see the end of the scene. But I didn't know when I got into the accident, and Arthur Penn brought a rush to a halt.

Although the whole film began to be mixed with gloom after 65 minutes, the lovers who were kidnapped into the car in a mischievous manner were still telling jokes with them for the first second, and the next second Bonnie asked the man: What do you do? Male answer: It's a funeral home. Suddenly, Bonnie's smile froze like a dark night and drove them out of the car.

Bonnie is a waitress in a small Texas town who thinks her life is as peaceful as stagnant water. She will easily run away with men who are willing to take her away from here. Not Clyde will be any truck driver passing by, or a factory worker. Clyde fell in love with her purely because of the beauty of the blonde. This kind of encounter is as natural and relaxing as the sunshine and sand in Texas. Except for the problem of Clyde's incompetence, everything is perfect for them. When she felt that she saw the god of death all the way, she was so frustrated that she wanted to return to a peaceful life with Clyde. At that time, Clyde's impotence miraculously improved, and then desperately wanted to marry her. There are a lot of details along the way, eating burgers, robbing bankrupt banks, robbing supermarkets, quarreling with Clyde’s brother, etc.~~ are all exaggerations.

Bonnie's last close-up: Suddenly understand why the birds in the forest are frightened and fly. At the moment when the deadline is up, the eyes looking at Clyde are calm, warm and clean and tender.



But the so-called abrupt end is to make the viewer adapt to the comfortable rhythm of rendering and suddenly stop writing. At the last moment, the two of them were laughing and sharing an apple in the car. The car and the car are all honeycombs, and there is no music. After fifteen seconds, the subtitles "THE END" will appear on the black background.


THE END.
I was choked, obviously, not because of the apple.

It is the black screen after the interruption. It represents the ruthlessness of truth and justice. It tells you that no matter how peaceful and beautiful the vision of Bonnie and the others is, they must be obedient and not rebellious.
Everything stopped, the spiritual consciousness that was once was wiped out, and Delete was cleared.
All that was once big but a dead word, the impact of 167 guns + black screen.

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.
