He said: "Taking from the rich? That's what I've been doing for 25 years. "I mean, it's true. I started off printing T-shirts, I sold ink pens, I worked in construction, I worked at a gas station and pumped gas. I was a mechanic for a little bit. I went into sewers,...

Johnny Depp Avoids Watching Own Performances

Parade.com reported Thursday that Depp, who plays notorious criminal John Dillinger in director Michael Mann's new movie, says it may be some time before he actually watches the final version of "Enemies."

Johnny Depp explains why his family inspired him in role as Public Enemies gangster
He was inspired by the daredevil exploits of his lawless ancestors while filming his role as the 1930s gangster John Dillinger in the new movie Public Enemies. Since he was a boy, Johnny Depp has been fascinated by the Dillinger legend, partly because he was born in Owensboro, Kentucky, 160 miles from the Indiana farm where Dillinger lived as a teenager. More significantly, Depp's own grandfather and stepfather had operated on the wrong side of the law. "It has to do with my family and my...

The way the Enquirer tells it, Depp asked to buy the...

How to get a job as Michael Mann's technical advisor: Be good at armed robbery!
When I spent an afternoon talking with Michael Mann about "Public Enemies" last month -- you can see the whole story here -- I asked him, half-jokingly, if he had a technical advisor that helped him with the details of John Dillinger's bank robberies. Mann is a famously intense stickler for detail. When he shot "Ali," for example, he filmed the scenes of the young champion at home at the boxer's actual house in Miami. In "Public...

5 For Fighting: A Conflicted Assessment Of Public Enemies
I assume that this is exactly how my high school teachers felt about me all those years ago. Public Enemies was good, but it could’ve been so much better. It could’ve graduated with honors, gone to a really nice, private college like USC, walked away from there in four years rather than five. Instead, it settled for being what it was: a better-than-average biopic about a really interesting guy that most everyone already knows about. As a viewer, I couldn’t have been more torn about the ou
