Public Enemies Blu-Ray
Please note this is a region B Blu-ray and will require a region B or region free Blu-ray player in order to play Since crime auteur Michael Mann like his protagonists plays by his own rules Public Enemies eschews back story and motivation for a closely-observed action-packed examination of men at work FBI supremo J Edgar Hoover (Billy Crudup) kick-starts a nationwide manhunt when he proclaims John Dillinger (Johnny Depp) Public Enemy 1 Hoover taps Agent Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale) to bring the Tommy Gun-toting bank robber in by any means necessary (the agency also targets Pretty Boy Floyd and Baby Face Nelson) If Dillinger had split the scene then and there he might have enjoyed a happier fate but he falls for beautiful coat-check girl Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard whose
open-hearted performance makes her the most sympathetic character in the film) In the end though Dillinger is the captain of his own destiny his loyalty to his girl and his gang overpowers his desire to live free Though the director also set his first film Thief and third series Crime Story in his native Chicago Public Enemies plays more like Heat in Depression-era garb In that LA policier Al Pacino&s cop develops a grudging respect for Robert De Niro&s criminal but letting a lawbreaker go free isn&t an option In this case however the tight-lipped Purvis never develops the same sort of esteem for Dillinger--or Hoover--making him the more tragic figure If Public Enemies is less overtly commercial than The Untouchables or Bugsy it&s still the best mainstream gangster epic in ages and ranks
