Details

• Release Year: 1945
• Genre: Crime, Drama
• Plot: His Story Is Written In Bullets, Blood and Blondes!; ; Willie Sutton robbed banks during the Depression because, he explained, 'That's where the money is.' ; ; Former Indiana farm boy John Dillinger also knew where the money was. And his string of early-1930s heists, murders and daring jailbreaks were so bold and notorious he became Public Enemy #1. ; ; Dillinger, Oscar®-nominated for its screenplay, is the bullet-paced story of the man whose crimes captivated and terrified the nation. ; ; Lawrence Tierney plays the title role, breaking free of screen anonymity and moving into a 50-year tough-guy career that would include 1947's Born to Kill and 1992's Reservoir Dogs. ; ; Perhaps it was a brutal early prison stretch that turned Dillinger from kid to killer. ; ; Perhaps he was a murderous thug to his core. ; ; Either way, Dillinger presents his story with film-noir style and lets you decide.
