I have to admit, I love this film. Yes, it’s a twisted cinematic love letter to crime and guns. But it’s so very well shot (boom-boom!), well acted, and well directed. And I just really enjoyed watching it.
There’s an amazing scene where Dillinger goes on a family/home visit. To see his parents/siblings. Can this be real? In the movie he does this right after a taunting telephone call to (?), the G-Man hunting him. Surely the cops’d be watching all his family/connections?
Whatever the truth, it makes for a terrific scene. ‘Welcome home, son.’
Set in the Depression era, 1933, which it also beautifully depicts/evokes…
