BONNIE AND CLYDE MOVIE SCREENWRITER - ROBERT BENTON
Benton, who was from Waxahachie, Texas says:
"I'd grown up hearing all the stories about Bonnie and Clyde.
My father went to their funeral in 1934. Everyone knew someone
who'd been robbed or kidnapped by them. Any farmer that had an
old car that didn't work, they'd take it out, shoot it full of
holes, pour some animal blood on it and show it off as the car
Bonnie and Clyde were killed in"
