Great movie! Don't know the director, either, but it was early 70s (I >believe) and also starred Martin Sheen in one of his best performances. The director of BADLANDS was Terence Malick. But while the Sissy Spacek character wasn't too bright, I don't think she was supposed to be mentally disabled in any clinical way.
