Each volume in the Critical Insights: Film collection focuses on a
single film classic from American cinema, providing detailed
insight and contextual analysis about each subject. These brand-new
titles make perfect additions to academic, public, and community
Film Studies collections everywhere. Directed by Arthur Penn and
starring Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway as the infamous gangster
duo, 1967's Bonnie and Clyde helped pave the way for the "New
Hollywood" school of filmmaking, given its rapid shifts of tone,
portrayal of sex and violence, and popularity with a younger
audience. Earning two Academy Awards, a place in the National Film
Registry, and the claim to "one of the bloodiest death scenes in
cinematic history," Bonnie & Clyde still remains a classic
today. This compilation in the Critical Insights Film series
provides essays that take a closer look at the landmark film, its
influences, and the controversies surrounding its release. Essays
are 2,500 to 5,000 words in length and offer analyses of Bonnie
& Clyde based on cultural and historical contexts, close
viewings from particular critical standpoints (from traditional to
postmodern), comparisons in the light of other films, and critical
receptions over time. All essays are written by renowned film
scholars of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, providing
in-depth, academic coverage of all key issues and
interpretations.Finally, the volume's appendixes offer a section of
useful reference resources: About This Volume; Critical Context:
Original Introductory Essays; Critical Readings: Original In-Depth
Essays; Further Readings; Detailed Bibliography; Detailed Bio of
the Editor; General Subject Index.
