See the birth of the legend in Young Dillinger, starring Nick Adams as the titular criminal. This film traces his early career, from Cagney-inspired romantic to psychopathic gang leader. Unforgiving and brutal in its depiction, the film prefigured Bonnie and Clyde’s nihilistic violence. The kind of thrilling, amoral crime picture Dillinger himself would’ve enjoyed, the movie was originally produced for, and then banned from, TV. Come see this rare film, unavailable on DVD, that also features Victor Buono as the memorably droll criminal consultant Professor Hofman.
