, and

Ford replaced her with Anne Bancroft.

*
Hal Ashby had a similar experience during production of
In the Heat of the Night
, when he went to see another Fox epic, John Huston's
The Bible.
“Great God in Heaven,” he wrote to Norman Jewison, “I hope we never kid ourselves into trying something like that.”

*
Ingmar Bergman was an admirer of Penn's work on
Bonnie and Clyde
, but he disapproved of Penn's decision to shoot in color. “There's a sensual erotic charm in color, when properly used,” he said. “…But I think color spoils a film like
Bonnie and Clyde.
That was a film, if any, which ought to have been shot…in coarse-grained black-and-white tones.” At the time of his remark, Bergman had not yet shot a color movie. (Bergman, quoted in
Bergman on Bergman
, by Stig Björkman, Torstenn Manns, and Jonas Sima, translated by Paul Britten Austin [New York: Touchstone/Simon & Schuster, 1973], p. 227.)
