#27 AFI, #1 Gangster Film (My Opinion)
Bonnie & Clyde is unflinchingly graphic, considered excessively violent for its day. In the last scene the two characters are gunned down in slow motion, so know your kid if they can handle it. Don't be fooled because its unrated, it is R for the violence. But this movie is nevertheless flawless for the mature. Just a comment, I don't think this film glorifies being a gangster. Particularly towards the end, Bonnie & Clyde are unhappy and desperate. Obviously, it ultimately means crime doesn't pay.

Outside of 1962's The Manchurian Candidate, this is the closest thing American cinema of the 1960's has to the greatess of the French New Wave era.

A classic - OK for teens
I love this movie but no way I would want my kid to watch it until she's a teenager. I think it *does* romanticize the gangster world. Bonnie and Clyde would have been called terrorists today. But here the movie shows them as lovable and kind of adorable. You watch this movie, and you want them to win. The ending is quite heartbreaking. Then you read the facts of what they really did - it was far more horrifying in real life than in the movie. The imagery of that ending will stay with you for the rest of your life, it is so intense, so very horrifying. I watched this movie as a teenager, and the ending haunted me for a long time.

It's one of those classics that you need to see in your lifetime. The ending is one of the most famous movie scenes.
