Bonnie and Clyde Part 2: Ride or Die
Sep 19, 202200:46:00Tap to summarizeIt’s April 1933. In Joplin, Missouri, a routine stakeout erupts into chaos under the suburban streetlights. Gunfire cracks the night as Bonnie Parker unleashes a hail of bullets from her oversized machine gun, buying time for Clyde Barrow and the gang to ram their way to freedom. Two cops lie dead, but the real prize for the law? An abandoned apartment brimming with weapons, personal effects—and a camera roll of playful, defiant photos that will rocket Bonnie and Clyde to infamy. As the Barrow Gang tears across the Depression-ravaged Midwest in stolen cars, their high-speed heists and shootouts turn them into glamorous anti-heroes. But behind the pinup poses and romantic poetry lurks a brutal reality of violence and a mounting body count that tests even their ride-or-die bond. This is the story of Bonnie and Clyde.
