Description

Release in 1937 and partly based on the legend of Bonnie and Clyde, You Only Live One was directed by Fritz Lang (Metropolis, Fury), starring Oscar winning actor Henry Fonda (Grapes of Wrath, Twelve Angry Men) and Sylvia Sidney (Fury, Blood On The Run). Eddie Taylor (Fonda) is an ex-convict who can't get a break on the "outside". He marries Joan Graham (Sidney) who like her husband is one of life's losers.
