dunaway had tried to get an interview with director arthur penn when he was directing "the chase" (1966), but was rebuffed by a casting director who didn't think she had the right face for the movies. when penn saw her scenes from "the happening" before its release, he decided to let her read for the role of the bank robber bonnie parker for his upcoming film, "bonnie and clyde" (1967). casting for the role of bonnie had proved to be difficult and many actresses had been considered for the role, including jane fonda, tuesday weld, ann-margret, carol lynley, leslie caron, and natalie wood. penn loved dunaway and managed to convince actor and producer, warren beatty, who played clyde barrow in the film, that she was right for the part. besides her relative anonymity, beatty's concern was her "extraordinary bone structure", which he thought might be inappropriate for bonnie parker, a local girl trying to look innocent while she held up smalltown texas banks. however, he changed his mind after seeing some photographs of dunaway taken by curtis hanson on the beach: "she could hit the ball across the net, and she had an intelligence and a strength that made her both powerful and romantic." dunaway only had a few weeks to prepare for the role and, when she was asked to lose weight to give her character a depression-era look, she went on a starvation diet, stopped eating and dropped thirty pounds.
