Depp's Dillinger to escape Crown Point Jail

Depp's Dillinger dares escape. OK I couldn't help myself. "Public Enemies" filmed today on location in Crown Point, IN and is scheduled to film the jail escape scene Wed., March 26. Back on March 3 of 1934 Dillinger escaped from the Crown Point jail. Depp is scheduled to reenact that famed moment tomorrow. We understand that filming in Crown Point will wrap.

Johnny Depp's "Public Enemies" continues filming in Columbus

Yesterday's "Public Enemies" filming in Columbus brought us our first pics of Johnny as John Dillinger and a wealth of local news reports. Below are a few of those local reports, often with links to pictures inside the article. A couple of noteworthy bits, a private home has been made ready for a dual filming opportunity, one use is reported to be the front door and living of Frank Nitti (played by John Ortiz) and the other reports that a bedroom of the same home will be used as the set of a brothel where Dillinger is with girlfriend Billie Frechette (played by Marion Cotillard) so keep a sharp eye for them to be in Columbus at some time soon.
