Keep an eye out for a fat bald scouser playing (badly) Baby Face Nelson, Tommy..

Theatrical licence with Christian Bale playing Purvis. Purvis's nickname was 'Little Mel' because he was a short arse. Bale is 6 feet tall. |

It really isn't very good is it?
I like proper gangster films from the thirties. Think I'll have another rum. |

Faux pas in timing and faux pas in detail. Pretty Boy Floyd was killed at the start of the film, but he wasn't killed until 3 or 4 months after Dillinger, and he wasn't killed by Purvis either. Back to the film... |

still watching, despite the factual inaccuracies it's pretty good.

You just missed a 7 minute gunfight Tommy.

Another one for you KM
Baby Face Nelson lived for 4 months and was named 'Public Enemy no.1' after Dillinger was killed. In the film he dies first. |
|
By:
Did the FBI kill Dillinger, or did the police? A lot of the facts about Dillinger aren't clear.

i like it just enjoy it for god sake

That fat bastard was okay when he was punching a woman less than half his size while she was handcuffed to a chair, but crapped himself when Dillinger turned to face him, despite the fact he had him in his gunsight.
Reminds me of some of the people on here over the years - a total Lloyds banker. Would have been better if Agent Winstead had clubbed him with a gun butt in the police station imo. |

Although I've enjoyed this, and will record the rest, on balance I preferred the early 70s Warren Oates film.

I thought Bonnie and Clyde was brilliant when it came out (1967?)
But when you see the photos of the real B&C you can see how Hollywood glamourise everything. |
