Michael Mann helming a crime thriller based on the notorious John Dillinger that pits Johnny Depp against Christian Bale may sound like a Hollywood sure-thing. But don’t be surprised if you get a sense that someone has been through your pockets when it’s all said and done. Public Enemies may not rob you completely, but it’s nowhere near the pay-off audiences might expect. The film’s muted palette intends to play to the feel of the 1930’s. Instead, it ironically better represents the film’s pervasive weakness — shades of beige as far as a nearsighted person can see. With such rich, historical material on hand, it’s disappointing that the most wanted thing in Public Enemies is some true depth and color.

This…is going….to be…awesome. Anna Wintour is obviously a fascinating character, and made ever more so by Meryl Streep’s portrayal of her in Devil Wears Prada. Apparently, for the first time ever, R.J. Cutler’s new film, The September Issue, goes behind the scenes to reveal all the sharp little details & drama that go into Vogue’s largest issue of the year.
