Episode 126: Bonnie and Clyde + Blonde Death
Stories about lovers on the run have been captivating audiences since the classic years of Hollywood - although it feels like a long time since we've seen many notable examples. Graham Williamson of the Pop Screen podcast pops in to talk about the history of the sub-genre and also to discuss a couple of contrasting examples. First up, seminal New Hollywood classic, Bonnie and Clyde (1967), directed by Arthur Penn and then, something COMPLETELY different, James Robert Baker's shot-on-video work of backyard auteurism, Blonde Death (1984).
Bonnie and Clyde treats real life events which haven't been news since the 1930's, and Blonde Death isn't really spoilable, so we won't be announcing a Spoiler Territory section for either of the films this week.
