Nevertheless, the soldiers put up their most dogged defence, and died fighting.

A rave in The New Yorker by Pauline Kael was also influential. Even in the wake of this critical reversal, however, Bosley Crowther remained one of the film's most dogged critics. He eventually wrote three negative reviews and periodically blasted the movie in reviews of other films and in a letters column response to unhappy Times readers. The New York Times replaced Crowther as its primary film critic in early 1968, and some observers speculated that his persistent attacks on Bonnie and Clyde had shown him to be out of touch with current cinema and weighed heavily in his removal.

You are never going to be somebody like a Sharapova, you're never going to be 5ft 11, you're never going to be somebody with long legs, so you have to compensate for that. You are going to have to be the most dogged, determined fighter that anyone has ever seen on the tennis court if you are going to make it', and she kind of is." Inverdale's words prompted criticism on Twitter and other social media, with some alleging they had complained of his "sexist and patronising" view of women's tennis in the past.Patrick Sawer and Claire Duffin "Wimbledon 2013: BBC apologise for John Inverdale's 'Bartoli not a looker’ comment", telegraph.co.
