-first film with graphic violence; but unlike todays film has wonderful storytelling and a compelling adventure
-very well acted: Faye Dunaway was her usual enthralling, spunky and wild. she was looking for adventure and got it.
-Warren Beatty was wild and wacky as well. he had little heart and when something went wrong he would get incredibly fiery. he was annoyingly nervous when it came to robbing banks
-Hackman, Pollard and Parsons were perfect. Gene Wilder makes a funny appearence which i really enjoyed.
-very well shot; i loved the opening sequence with Dunaway. loved the shots within the car bofore and after robberies- and of course the last scene.
