Public Enemies Film Based on Burrough's Book of Same Name

Bryon Burrough's book Public Enemies: America’s Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-34 is the basis of Johnny Depp's upcoming film Public Enemies. The film was shot in Chicago and will open on the July 4th weekend. Depp plays the infamous gangster John Dillinger. Burrough, an extra in the film, goes to Depp's (Dillinger's)side after he has been shot. Depp (Dillinger)falls on the same slab of Chicago where Dillinger was shot 75 years ago.
