He seems to know he has been spotted and looks really happy while having contact with someone, so we decided to put the pic up:
During the ending credits of the Academy Award Ceremony,various clips from movies were shown AND YES,a few seconds from Public Enemies too. It looks awesome,intense,action-packed and we have it here for you,in case you missed it:
Now tension is building up for the trailer!
I was there (at the screening) too. (…) I too am quite squeamish with certain types of violence and especially gore or blood but this was perfectly and appropriately done. There wasn’t a lot of blood just some really realistic gunfire! Damn. Really knock ya back in your seat!
SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The death scene did bother me a bit, but again, it was necessary and beautifully done. I am super sensitive, emotionally and it was quite hard to watch him die. Not just as Johnny, but as Dillinger himself. You come to really love the guy and knowing he was of true flesh and blood, I wanted him to live…even as I knew how his life ended. For me, the movie was quite sobering and I find this another fine example of Johnny’s ability as an actor to pull us right into a character so deeply that we forget for a while about reality and really are taken along for the ride. He really posesses a character…so much so, you can’t help but loose Johnny the actor and fully embrace whomever he is portraying. This makes for a fabulous movie-going experience and in a movie such as this one, it can really gut you. This movie was SUPER dramatic…very action packed and then tender as well. Kudos to Michael for pulling that off and to the fabulous cast for their great performances. I’m not a big Bale fan but that guy said a LOT with his eyes.
Another test screening of Michael Mann’s Public Enemies taking place last thursday in Sherman Oaks California.

(…) I’m STILL reeling from the experience…
(…) I’ll just add a few more comments. The music (what there was of it) was great! It blended the old standards with some contemporary “old-timey” sounding blues guitar and it worked so well with the scenes they were paired with. And the way Michael Mann shot the film was brilliant. We’ve all heard/read stories of him being a perfectionist and it truly does show…the lighting, the the actual places where these events took place, the clothes…everything looks beautiful and you ARE brought back in time. And the shoot-outs? Yes, you feel like you are right there. The blasts and pops from the guns are frighteningly “realistic” (although I’ve never actually been in a shoot-out!), and loud. Our chairs shook during some of these scenes. This may turn some people off, but for me, it wasn’t too loud…I loved it!
One of the problems I did have was distinguishing some of the charaters from the others…all the men wore suits and hats and had the same haircuts, so there were a few times when I thought “OK, who is that?” But it also keeps you guessing, because Dillinger was so crafty, some of his gang were dressed to appear as cops or agents. The body count does register quite high on both sides, however!
***SPOILER ALERT***
The scene of Dillinger’s death was graphic, sad, and very well done. All of the previous shoot-outs were loud and fast-paced,
