Duff vs. Dunaway may turn out to be more exciting than the Bonnie and Clyde remake.
Former Disney queen Hilary Duff is set to tackle Faye Dunaway's legendary role of Bonnie Parker, one-half of crime's notorious duo, in The Story of Bonnie and Clyde — news that did not sit well with Dunaway. "Couldn't they at least cast a real actress?" Dunaway reportedly scoffed last week.

“Cat Fight-(Kramer)”
ramer: Cat fight?
Elaine: Ok, why? Why do guys do this? What is so appealing to men about a cat fight?
Kramer: Yeye cat fight!
Jerry: Because men think if women are grabbing and clawing at each other there’s a chance they might somehow kiss.
Kramer: T-t-t-t...

Not to mention Hillary actually can speak with a Texas accent instead of the overdone silly one of Faye Dun-goneaway.
“Bonnie and Clyde was a terribly overrated movie.”
But it had some great music. The version of Foggy Mtn. Breakdown used is still one of the best instrumentals ever.
The irony is that bluegrass music didn’t exist prior to WWII. Sort of like using a rap song in a film about the 1960s.
Still, it fit the film perfectly. As long as they use bluegrass in the new movie, I’m going.
Couldn’t care less who stars in it since I’m not going to be buying any overpriced movie tickets for some Hollyweird trash anyway.
To paraphrase beyond nipples there is also:
The forces of friction enhanced by the nature of the cantilever supporting those forces manipulated to be downward with no apparent vertical or rearward structure by discrete engineering with a very small factor of safety which is in most cases hung on cantilevers divided in two, thus f/2 acting upon the supplied cantilever.
Exact measure of forces would require close study of said cantilevers. However as no volunteers have as of yet been found, exact measures of forces can not be provided.

You are blind!
Duff is plain next to Dunaway.
Hillary Duff as ‘Bonnie’? If you read the credits of the EP and Casting Director, it makes sense. What a bomb this will be. Also, starring a 21 year old to play ‘Bonnie’ and a 24 year old to play ‘Clyde’ is just ridiculous.
Yes, I know the real Bonnie and Clyde were young but I just think it’s nuts to hire baby faced kids to portray them.
Gotta disagree, Smith. Faye D. always looks good. She has a high fashion model’s face — classic beauty. Hillary Duff is pretty, but she isn’t in Faye’s league.
All that said, these inter-generational cat fights are pretty fun! Pass the popcorn!

Correct, although they could've gone with some Jimmie Rodgers (like "In The Jailhouse Now" or "Blue Yodel" songs...)

Well Blowfly had "Rap Dirty" in 1965 and there were The Last Poets.
She could have N.Pelosi or H.Clinton’s job with a resume like that.
Who would you suggest? Duff is actually older than Bonnie was when she met Clyde.
Built-in corsets.

There’s no such thing as good acting, just good casting.
The real question is, why make another movie to glorify Bonnie and Clyde? Thanks Perdogg.
Roberts, Duff and Dunaway are three different generations of actors.
