It's finally happened. A big-time, big-budget filmmaker has finally put the Hollywood limelight squarely on the bank robber extraordinaire John Dillinger, who for 13 months in 1933 and 1934 riveted America with his big-time take-downs, full-metal-jacket shootouts, and hairbreadth escapes, all of ...
