The film is set to hit theaters on July 1 and is certain to be a summer must-see, but may in fact prove to be a film to watch out for come awards season.
Michael Mann (Heat, Collateral) penned the script based on Brian Burrough’s nonfiction book “Public Enemies: America’s Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-34” Public Enemies is set during the great crime wave of 1933-34, when the government’s attempts to stop Depression-era criminal legends such as John Dillilnger (Depp), Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd transformed J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI into the country’s first federal police force.
