      The bottleneck period of my movie watching

      I thought the movie was bad at first

      After reading Brother Kong's film review, I can kind of understand what the director finally gave, the close-up shots of Jonnhy watching the movie, and the special and subtle atmosphere when he walked out of the theater. The author's interpretation of the times is very helpful for everyone to truly watch the film and understand the director. I also kind of understand that I have been criticized for watching movies over the years. Why do you forget...

      Legendary Rogue

      Depp's film, 5 stars, is a must~~~ But is this a public enemy of the whole people, how can it be like a lover of the whole people~~~~ Another character that is both good and evil, for Depp, he still has a good grasp of it . The opening scene of robbing the bank is very exciting. The slow motion of Depp jumping over the counter is so handsome, it reminds me of Nicolas Cage walking out of the carriage in "Face Change". The whole film is very legendary, and only the ending can make people believe...

      without

      Rather than saying that he was a bank robber, he was more like a gentleman. He was kind and righteous to his friends, tender to his lover, and even took off his coat for a frightened lady to approve it for her. Officially, he was a heinous "public enemy", but his death was tantamount to the passing of a hero to the public.
      Who can really understand him? Without "BLACKBIRD", what if you could escape to places farther than Cuba? Also, the woman in the yellowish photo is his mother, she looks...

      pirate brother robber

      Generally, such movies with real characters as prototypes will enter a routine, ignoring the deeds that most people know about, excavating bits and pieces, and trying to build a flesh-and-blood body on the basis of common knowledge.
          The handsome Johnny added a lot to the movie, for the handsome and bold, and his somewhat neurotic eyes.
          It seems that robbers and pirates are really relatives, with the same behavior and the same fate and stubbornness. The pirates have a taste of...

    Movie plot

    In the United States in the 1930s, under the Great Depression, everyone was in panic and did not know where to go. In such a turbulent era, some bold people began to use their means to contend with the entire society. A man named John Dillinger ( played by Johnny Depp) appeared in the public eye. His fame was to rob a bank in broad daylight and became the most popular in the Great Depression. A strong criminal, and John Dillinger...

    Behind the scenes gags

    Preparations for the film began in 2004, when the actor chosen to play John Dillinger was Leonardo DiCaprio. However, because Leonardo DiCaprio was reluctant to appear in the film, in the end John Dillinger's role was replaced by Johnny Depp.
    In the film, John Dillinger has a line to bank customers, "The money in the bank now does not belong to you." This line was originally from the film director Michael Mann's "The Wire of Fire" in...

    Positive

    A pseudo-crime movie that will arouse public enthusiasm, especially female fans. (Comment on "Variety")
    The film has a gorgeous image style and Michael Mann-style action scenes, and there is also a story background that makes the audience feel concerned. (Comment by "Movie Weekly")
    Johnny Depp has amazing acting skills, playing a badass but not face-to-face, but full of enough thickness. (Comment on "New York Daily...)

    Movie quotes

    • [Agents Baum and Purvis are briefing the Chicago field agents]

      Agent Carter Baum: According to the bank teller Barbara Patzke, this is John Dillinger's coat. It's made by Shragge-Quality out of St. Louis. Price: $35 dollars. Windproof, 32 ounce wool. Top stitching.

      Melvin Purvis: [nods approvingly] Thank you, Agent Baum.

      [Baum steps aside]

      Melvin Purvis: Agents in our offices across the country are identifying every store in the United States that sold this overcoat. Then, we will cross-reference every Dillinger associate, in locales where that coat was sold. He was in a place, he got cold, he bought a coat. Unless he was traveling through, he was being harbored nearby. If he returns, we will be there. It is by such methods that our bureau will get John Dillinger.

      [turns to Doris Rogers]

      Melvin Purvis: Now Doris, would you please contact the Chicago area telephone exchange supervisors? There are six. Request appointments for Carter Baum and myself.

      [as she does that, Purvis turns back to his agents]

      Melvin Purvis: Gentlemen, shortly you will be provided... Thompson submachine guns, BARs, and uh, .351 Winchester semi-automatic rifles. We are pursuing hardened killers. It will be dangerous. Those of you who aren't prepared for that should go. And if you are going to go, please go now.

      [No one leaves]

    • [Purvis and Baum are listening in on a wiretapped call]

      Agent Carter Baum: This is a phone conversation from a car dealership twenty-seven minutes ago. Harry Berman.

      [He pushes down the needle to play back an acetate disk]

      John Dillinger's voice: When you drop it, leave the keys on the floorboard.

      Harry Berman's voice: I got a DeSoto.

      John Dillinger's voice: Okay.

      [Purvis takes off his headphones]

      Melvin Purvis: How did we get to Berman?

      Agent Carter Baum: Off the Dillinger coat. The coat was bought in Cicero, Illinois, a few doors down from Berman's dealership. Now we know Berman. He's been supplying cars to the Syndicate since Capone. When Dillinger bought that coat, he must've been at Berman's switching cars.

      Melvin Purvis: Soon as they call to drop the DeSoto, we'll tail it. I want men on this, around the clock.

    • [Hoover is at a Senate Appropriation Committee hearing]

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: Why do we need this?

      J. Edgar Hoover: Because criminals flee in fast automobiles across state lines, thereby defeating local jurisdiction because there is no federal police force to stop them.

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: By my tally, your bureau wants to spend more taxpayer's dollars catching crooks, than what the crooks you catch stole in the first place.

      J. Edgar Hoover: Well that's ridiculous. The Bureau has apprehended kidnappers and bank robbers who have stolen up to and in excess of...

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: Really?

      [Hoover stops midsentence]

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: How many have you apprehended?

      J. Edgar Hoover: We have arrested and arraigned 213 wanted felons.

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: No, I mean *you*, Director Hoover.

      J. Edgar Hoover: Well, as Director, I administer.

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: How many have you arrested, personally?

      [long pause as Hoover stares at McKellar]

      J. Edgar Hoover: I have never arrested anybody.

      [Other men in the chamber gasp in shock]

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: You've never arrested anybody?

      J. Edgar Hoover: Well of course not. I'm an administrator...

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: With no field experience. You are shockingly unqualified, aren't you, sir? You have never personally conducted a criminal investigation in the field in your life. I think you're a front. I think your prowess as a lawman is a myth, created from the hoopla of headlines by Mr. Suydam, your publicist there. Crimebuster? G-Man? You're setting yourself up as a Czar? That's running wild in my estimation.

      J. Edgar Hoover: A *crime* is what runs wild...

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: If this country requires a bureau such as yours, I question whether you are the person fit to run it.

      J. Edgar Hoover: [getting angry] Well I will not be judged by a kangaroo court of venal politicians...

      Senator Kenneth McKellar: Your appropriation increase is denied.

      [taps his gavel, signifying the end of the session; Hoover and his aides get up and leave]

      J. Edgar Hoover: Feed the following to Walter Winchell: "McKellar is a Neanderthal, and he is on a personal vendetta to destroy me." We will not contest him in his committee. We need to fight him on the front page. Where's John Dillinger?
