 The earliest versions had Clyde shooting and killing the butcher during   their fight. This was toned down to Clyde just shooting the butcher, and   finally just pistol whipping him. In real life, speculation still exists as   to whether Clyde Barrow (qv) actually committed the crime this is based   on; although his photo was picked out, the method in which it was executed   doesnt fit his MO. In the final cut, there is a brief jump in the film   during the fight, where it was spliced from the original, more graphic   conclusion.
