Good movie given from the opposite perspective compared to most Bonnie and Clyde movies. The 33 door pulls on all four doors of the 1934 ford in the movie drive me nuts for some reason.

I noticed the wood grain ashtray radio dial in the plain dash. Also the wipers are modern replacements . Still a fantastic movie

First thing I noticed too; wife didn't like the that I had to rewind (seems like the wrong word now-a-days) the movie to take a second look.

I wondered, like Karl, about the wiper set-up.

Don't know why; but standing on the hood bothered me more than the bullet holes.

I believe he stood on the cowl not the hood.

Does it really matter if it was the cowl instead of the hood? The point is he's standing on the car.

I've watched this 8 times.... so far! Yeah, it's a slow mover at times but the all the 34's were sweet. I have a '33 deluxe and was hoping to spot one somewhere in the film. Even a Model B would've been nice to see.
I agree that the scene when Hamer stood on the front end made we wince.
The other nitpick I have is that the main '34 only had 1 visor and it was mounted wrong. Upside down. Yikes.

I didn't notice the visor but as it was a standard it would have only had one visor anyway -I need to look at the mounting -Karl
