February 25th, 2008
“We Rob Banks”, is synonymous with the famous bank bobbing couple that was Bonnie and Clyde, they’re robbing spree had authorities hot on their trail as they lived life on the edge. The Notorious Barrow’s Gang which Bonnie and Clyde were part of had an actual member on the set when it was being shot. That same member was the one who talked to Gene Hackman asking him if he would have worn such a hat if he were in the character. He replied no, the guy then introduces himself as that Barrow’s gang member. There were also some romanticized scenes such as the fatal ending for Bonnie was already disfigured by a car crash a year back leaving her with severe burns to her legs that made it difficult to walk. In real life, she was either carried or helped by Clyde when on their many heists.
