BONNIE AND CLYDE (1967) Photo by Floyd McCarty

Vintage original 11 x 14″ (28 x 35 cm.) black-and-white double weight semi-glossy silver gelatin print still photo, USA. Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, Michael J. Pollard, Gene Hackman, Estelle Parsons, dir: Arthur Penn; Warner Brothers.

An intense moment is depicted in this image from this groundbreaking classic film. The story allowed the audience to have sympathy for the villains, a concept which broke the rules of the stringent Production Code which had slowly been carved away since being instituted in 1934 — the year much of this story took place. After this film, the code was pretty much done away with. The costumes by Theadora Van Runkle started a fashion craze.

The photo is stamped on the back “BONNIE AND CLYDE Warner Bros. Exclusive,” and “Photo by Floyd McCarty.” There are no condition distractions in this print. FINE.
