Get The Look of Bonnie and Clyde’s Bonnie Parker!

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker is based on the real life criminal with the same name.

The Bonnie Parker the film portrays is the girl the media created based on photos found in the Joplin hideout. The photos depicted a  gun-toting, cigar smoking wild child.
