Anyone else watch Bonnie and Clyde?

I found it interesting that Clyde had premonitions, even if he ignored them from time to time.

Yeah, the second part picked up a bit with the crimes and violence, etc. The cast was good. I feel like it has been eons since I have seen William Hurt in a movie and now within a month I have seen him in two made for TV.

I liked it. I wonder how much was true vs. how much was embellished for the sake of storytelling.

I haven't watched it yet but I'm sure there are lots of embellishments.

Was there any references to how he was treated in the Texas prison?

I didn't get to the end. Supposedly he wanted to stop when they brought in a retired, well known Texas Ranger to hunt him down (he had a vision of being shot), but Bonnie wanted to keep going. Who knows if that is entirely true.

I don't think that was true about Bonnie wanting to keep them going, but like it was said before of course it's been embellished.

Based on the book on Buck Barrow's widow, Clyde had a vendetta against the Texas prison system and vowed not to be taken alive. She made no mention of premonitions. : )
