In Reply to: In your world, "gangsters" are all scowling misanthropes. Dillinger posted by tinear on January 18, 2010 at 21:28:30:
Here, he writes a letter to Henry Ford in 1934"Hello Old Pal,
Arrived here at 10:00 AM today. Would like to drop in and see you.
You have a wonderful car. Been driving it for three weeks. It's a treat
to drive one. Your slogan should be, drive a Ford and watch the other
cars fall behind you. I can make any other car take a Ford's dust!Bye-bye,
John Dillinger"Bonnie Parker wrote poetry + sent this to newspapers + was published nationwide including "The Ballad of Bonnie + Clyde" + not to be outdone, Clyde Barrow wrote a letter to Ford as well thanking him for the reliability of the Ford V-8's ( he stole )
This is the "Dillinger" I wanted to see; vicious for sure, but also a certain back-woodsy + cocky humour that's hard, even now, not to admire
Not a hint of this in "Public Enemies"
