I was a bit surprised at the dismissive tone this obituary writer used for 'Little Big Man', which I think holds up very well even today, and I enjoyed 'The Missouri Breaks' much more than, apparently, most. Both movies turned the whole oater sensibility on it's head, with gleefully rambling plots and goofball characters, interspersed with real and horrifying violence. But 'Bonnie And Clyde' is masterful-if that was the only film on his resume, he still, as you say, deserved more.
