Reception
Tony Scott of Variety said that this version "concentrates on the pair's supposed innocence and sensitivity; program is surprisingly effective."[2] When they begin traveling together, Bonnie is a teenager and Clyde is 20 years old. Scott says the chief fault of this version is "in turning the sleazy Bonnie and Clyde into a pair of sympathetic characters."[2]
