Public Enemies (movie)

[Nuttkase]

Public Enemies is a 2009 film adaptation of Bryan Burrough's book Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933–34 directed by Michael Mann.

The crime drama is set during the Great Depression with the focus on the FBI agent Melvin Purvis' attempt to stop criminals John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, and Pretty Boy Floyd. Christian Bale will play FBI agent Purvis, Johnny Depp will play Dillinger, Marion Cotillard will play Dillinger's girlfriend Billie Frechette, and Channing Tatum will play Pretty Boy Floyd. Principal photography began in Columbus, Wisconsin on March 17, 2008 and wrapped in Chicago, Illinois; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Madison, Wisconsin; and several other places in Wisconsin until the end of June 2008, including the famous Little Bohemia Lodge in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin, the actual location of a 1934 gun fight between Dillinger and the FBI. Some parts of the film were shot in Crown Point, Indiana, the town where Dillinger was imprisoned and subsequently escaped from jail.

Johnny Depp as John Dillinger and Christian Bale as Melvin Purvis. Directed by Michael Mann. Looks like it could be pretty good. I'm glad it's rated R and not pg-13.

Weak on the embedding. People can just double click it and watch it then lol.

Yeah, Miami Vice was weak as fuck but I like a lot of Mann's movies like The Aviator, The Insider, Heat and Last of the Mohicans.

[Nuttkase]

yeah Mann is dope fur shure

I'd love to see him team back up with Daniel Day-Lewis on a movie. That would be awesome.

My great grandma's brother(great uncle?) is Homer Van Meter. I'm very interested in this film.

Also, for another good version of this story, look up the movie Dillinger.

This looks like it would be cool as a period piece gangster flick, but making it about an actual historical figure takes so much away from it.

I would be able to appreciate it as a '20-'30's era Heat, but when they make it semi-biographical it automatically makes me have to look at it historically and because it isn't going to be accurate enough it is going to draw away from me rating it higher (like I would if it was just a shoot em up period piece).

I'm sick sorry if that doesn't make sense.
