"I got a sneaking suspicion that he was a very lovable character," Johnny told Kevin of the complexity of playing John Dillinger. "His choice of occupation was, you know potentially questionable," Johnny admitted, however.
Christian, who plays Johnny's movie nemesis, said of Johnny's character: "People wanted Dillinger to get away with it, you know? The myth of him, is one that is a very charming myth."'Public Enemies' pits Johnny's 1930s bank robber Dillinger against Christian as FBI agent Melvin Purvis. Marion comes along for the ride as Dillinger's girlfriend Billie Frechette, while Channing Tatum plays henchman Pretty Boy Floyd, and Billy Crudup leads the FBI as J. Edgar Hoover.
