A film that owes everything to Bonny and Clyde stars two individuals with very short (if not darn near nonexistent) careers.John Dall I didn't know by name, but I know him well as the killer in Alfred Hitchcock's Rope, which is fantastic, but Dall practically carries the entire film if not for one Jimmy Stewart doing some lifting himself.
Dall was in eight total films, including Spartacus and The Corn is Green with Bette Davis for which he received an Oscar nod for Best Supporting Actor.
Peggy Cummins did 27 insignificant films (except Gun Crazy, of course ... which isn't all that great) and retired in the early 1960s.
Her ultimate claim to fame? She dated both Howard Hughes and John F. Kennedy. She must have had dynamite you-know-what.
