New Public Enemies Clip

The fabled John Dillinger was a bank robber, outlaw and all-round smoothy but, as this Yahoo! clip from Michael Mann's excellent Public Enemie****s shows, he was pretty handy with the steel too when backed into a corner. And, as America's most wanted criminal, he was regularly backed into a corner. Click here to view the clip.

Set at Little Bohemia Lodge, the scene shows FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale) and his team of G-Men attacking Dillinger's (Johnny Depp) forest hideout. Look out for a bunch of Mann's tropes, including historical vérité (the scene was filmed at the Wisconsin location where the battle took place in 1934), digital photography, and an almighty sh*tstorm of flying bullets.

Public Enemie****s is out on Wednesday 1 July.
