Arthur Penn<\/a>, the screen and theater director whose “Bonnie and Clyde<\/a>” single-handedly blasted cinematic violence into a new realm in 1967, died Tuesday at his home in\u00a0Manhattan<\/a>. He was 88. The cause was heart failure.<\/p>\n

Penn was 44 when he made the youth-centric classic about Depression-era gangsters\u00a0Clyde Barrow<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Bonnie Parker<\/a>, but star\/producer Warren Beatty\u00a0– who’d previously acted in Penn”s “Mickey One”\u00a0– selected the filmmaker after\u00a0Francois Truffaut<\/a>\u00a0turned the project down.<\/p>\n

“Bonnie and Clyde” polarized critics and was shortchanged by its studio,\u00a0Warner Bros.<\/a>, until Beatty and Penn’s grassroots campaign got back into theaters in late 1967, where the movie’s much-discussed violence made it a hit. The movie’s resurrection is Hollywood legend, just as its hail-of-bullets ending is still imitated, studied and admired.<\/p>\n
