and production design.

I decided on Public Enemies, because I was helpless to resist the opportunity to stare at Johnny Depp for two hours, lol. Turns out, I fell in love with Marion Cotillard too! She was gorgeous and her performance was really intense. The costumes and production design were fantastic, as well -- seemingly spot-on for the period and yet also incredibly chic by today's standards. I kind of zoned out during all the shooting, but nonetheless enjoyed the film a lot.

" The Feds try to take down notorious American gangsters John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd during a booming crime wave in the 1930s."

" Michael Mann makes signal crime and movies about crime an art form."

Johnny Depp sports two exquisite pairs of sunglasses.

If you have any information, of if you’re in contact with Colleen Atwood,
I would love to learn more about Mr. Depp’s eyewear for the film.

This summer,
while audiences root for bad guy John Dillinger, famed Chicago bank robber,
as he lives larger than life in Michael Mann’s latest blockbuster Public Enemies,
I’ll be ogling his hats.


Now, they limit their production to twenty colors a year.
“Although we reran the oxblood Depp wears in the film.”

It’s a cool color. In certain lights it looks black in others dark brown.

Not just any Buddy, that’s the signature of regular customer, blues legend, Buddy Guy.

“We play a lot of jazz and old rhythm & blues in the shop. One of the cool things about working here, we cater to that crowd.”

Jazz Masters, Blue Smiths, and Public Enemy Number One. All in a day’s work.

This is a very good film,
with Depp and Bale performances of brutal clarity.

Johnny Depp is way to handsome to interpret the role of John Dilinger!
He's maybe a really good actor, but with his pretty face Public Enemies
won't be a real gangster movie!

" Though the night seems to be happy with who waited...
it was a happy time of it by the shortest,
but not all who sin. Because all people have the right choose
for themselves all. Can only continue...

... With all one's energy to run,
even know the last time it will be disappointed."
