Hilary Duff vs. Faye Dunaway: "Bonnie and Clyde" Feud
Hilary Duff is set to star in a remake of "Bonnie and Clyde," the 1967 movie that earned Faye Dunaway an Oscar nom. "The Story of Bonnie and Clyde" will start shooting in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama soon, and is scheduled for a 2010 release.
Apparently, when Dunaway heard of the casting, she said, "Couldn’t they cast a real actress?" Duff replied with, "I think that my fans that are gonna see the movie don’t even know who she is … I think it was a little unnecessary, but I might be mad if I looked like that now, too." Meow on both counts!
Personally, I like Hilary Duff and would see her in just about anything. I mean, let’s face it, she’s no Meryl Streep, but then neither is Faye Dunaway! Anyway, check out the video below. Who’s side do you fall on, or don’t you really care?

A remake of Bonnie and Clyde? I don’t care who they tapped to play Bonnie — the whole idea is just wrong wrong wrong. What’s next? A remake of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid? Ugh…find new scripts people. There’s no reason to remake the classics!

Jenna - I know, it’s crazy. Even crazier is I’m probably the only person on the planet who actually likes Hilary Duff as an actress. I think she’s cute!

Faye Dunaway’s acting was ‘brilliant’, and outstanding, in her role as Bonnie Parker. The movie was fantastic and exciting, and won numerous awards. Noone will ever, nor CAN EVER come close to Faye’s talent as an actress.
Hilary - you are not an actress, and you have never been an actress. You are showing just how insecure you are by knocking incredible talents. You don’t even come close to joining the super dream team of Hackman, Beatty, Parsons, and Dunaway. And Estelle Parsons won best supporting actress for that movie.
Don’t knock the greats - it looks very bad on your celebrity…..shows you to be immature, and disrespectful. Shame on you. I hate your music anyway. Apologize to Faye.
