Penn's take on Bonnie and Clyde is looked down on, but otherwise it's a quality noir that would make hirnlego very happy, because the woman is the origin of all evil: o) What sets this likeable low-budget piece apart from the work of the time are the innovative elements used – in particular, the camera view from the backseat of a car, capturing the bank robberies live, absolutely blew me away, a previously unused idea that will do your taste buds good.

If it were filmed today, perhaps it would be even better in the sense that it could be grittier, which wouldn't harm the film at all. On the other hand, it's already quite gritty at times for its era, which adds to its power. Moreover, the actress in the main role is simply captivating, both in her acting and her appearance. A film that clearly can't end well. It's just a shame that there are too many variations on Bonnie and Clyde.
