[Earlier in 1927, director Leo McCarey had made a two-reel Laurel and Hardy film with the same itle - and he borrowed the title from there.The dialogue in the recently-restored first version, with a total of eighteen never-before-seen minutes, rendered the incomprehensible, labryinthine plot more clearly by revealing plot points.At the outdoor swimming pool, he showed where he had dumped the six bodies in the pool rather than burying them ("human goldfish in the f--king pool").Bonnie jumps into a car parked on the street, while he hot-wires it for their getaway.They introduce themselves formally to each other:Bonnie: Hey, what""s your name anyhow?Clyde: Clyde Barrow.Come away with me, Letty.I love you.Lige announced that the party could recommence ("Cyclone blowed over - shindig under way again!").As Roddy was departing (Lige and Sourdough framed the outer doorway on either side), he advised Letty to ponder his proposal for the next 24 hours:Think it over, Letty - I""ll be in town until tomorrow night -He again wiped away dust from his sleeve.
