In the action-thriller Public Enemies, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Mann directs Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard in the incredible and true story of legendary Depression-era bank robber John Dillinger, the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of Edgar Hoover's fledgling FBI and its top agent, and a folk hero to much of the needful public.
No one could stop John Dillinger and his gang, nor a jail could hold him. His charm and audacious jailbreaks endeared him to almost everyone; from his girlfriend to an American public who had no sympathy for the banks that had plunged the country into the Depression. But while the adventures of Dillinger' gang thrilled many, Hoover made Dillinger America's first Public Enemy Number One and sent in Melvin Purvis, the dashing "Clark Gable of the FBI." Leading to epic chases and wild shootouts once thought a thing of the past, Dillinger and his gang continued to outwit law enforcement. Only after importing a crew of Western ex-lawmen and orchestrating epic betrayals were Purvis, the FBI and their new crew of gunfighters able to close in on Dillinger.
