      @@cindyrussell1581 Watch " Dillinger " that came out in 1973 , I GUARANTEE you wouldn't think so much of Johnny Depp after watching that. I like Johnny Depp's movies too , but when I saw Johnny Depp as Dillinger , I didn't think he played the part right. That's how much better Warren Oates done the job. Rather than arguing, just watch the one that came out in 1973 !!!!

      They suppressed that. J Edgar Hoover belonged in the prisons he sent the criminals he caught. He was a very bad person. I believe the agents were overwhelmed with pressure to catch Dillinger. I'm willing to bet they shot Dillingers doppelganger and hushed it because that would have been absolute embarassment and the end of Hoover and the FBI. ( all my opinion of course)

      Not trying to defend or excuse Dillinger at all but Melvin Pervis was a back shooting, cowardly, nerd. Dillinger was running away, did not point a gun at anyone and he was shot multiple times in the back! Not to wound, not to apprehend but to kill! Anyway you cut it he was executed without due process, without even an offer to surrender. The FBI didn't even identify themselves! Once they were sure of their targets identification they just started blazing away! Let us not forget the completely INNOCENT man Pervis and his henchmen MURDERED IN COLDBLOOD at their botched, keystone cop, raid in little Bohemia. And no one was called to account for that!! That my friends is acting like one is above the law, and you never have to justify your actions!

    Since Dillinger was killed I assume the narrative used in the reenactment of him is fabricated, as well as the other characters in this video, since there were no credits in this video about it. I appreciate the other interviews (authors, etc...,) and other facts in the story but this technique injects bias into what should be a credible documentary. The reenactment portrays a attitude and a light-hearted personality of a criminal who murdered a cop. This is typical of videos from this producer.

      Dillinger wasn’t a psychopathic killer. Lester Gillis aka Baby Face Nelson definitely was.
