Vintage reference photograph from the 1967 film, showing Faye Dunaway shooting through a hanging tire swing, with a smiling Warren Beatty looking on. Warner-Pathe stamp on the verso, along with annotations in manuscript ink and pencil. Perhaps the most significant film for the New Hollywood generation, with its mix of graphic violence, sex and humor, and a glamourous take on disaffected youth. Its portrayal of violence and ambiguity in regard to moral values, and 'shock' ending, divided critics. One critic, Pauline Kael, came to its rescue, stating that "in a sense, it is the absence of sadism. it is the violence without sadism. that throws the audience off balance at Bonnie and Clyde.
