Faye Dunaway, American actress, was born on January 14, 1941. She received her education at the Department of Drama at the University of Florida, and then at the School of Fine Arts in Boston. In the sixties she entered the theater scene: on the stage Faye Dunaway saw producer Sam Seagal (in 1967, the actress played in the play by Arthur Miller “After the Fall”). Seagal invited Dunaway to play in his film “Incident”.

In the same year, Dunaway played the lead female role in Bonnie and Clyde (Bonnie and Clyde) The picture (not without the merit of Faye) became a cult, and, despite the fact that in the center there were two bandits, bank robbers, Bonnie began to imitate: midi skirts and berets in the style of this beauty came into fashion. A few years later, director Penn would cast Faye Dunaway as Mrs. Paindrick in the 1970 western Little Big Man, playing a vicious creature with a doll-like appearance.

The images that Faye had to play were associated with her captivating appearance. In it, the femme fatale “glowed through”, and therefore the directors offered Dunaway to play the appropriate roles. R. Polansky took her to his "Chinatown", R. Lester considered Faye the ideal Milady for the film based on the novel by A. Dumas. And so the actress was also a real American - energetic, decisive. In this guise, she appeared in the film “Oklahoma As It Is”, and then, at a more mature age, the actress began to create complex, sometimes tragic characters in films by European directors (“Burning Mystery”, “Clear Lunar Night”, “Drunk” or “Barfly Regular” (Barfly, 1987). In the last picture, Faye played a descended alcoholic, a friend of the same drunken writer. The writer, Charles Bukowski, could not resist and described the story of the creation of this film in the novel “Hollywood”: the game Faye Dunaway was worth it to capture it in the book. /
