Public Enemies and the Banjo

22 November 2009

A few days ago I went to see Public Enemies. I had not actually heard much about the movie before, but my expectations grew high when I saw what type of movie it was and found out about the actors: Christian Bale, Johnny Depp, Giovanni Ribisi and Marion Cotillard, just to name the most obvious ones. And the film didn’t disappoint. Like all movies with Johnny Depp, a strange sense of weirdness pervades the entire story. The plot of the movie is nothing special, but Michael Mann’s direction is great, alongside the photography.

Overall a beautiful movie, especially if you are a fan of Depp’s mesmerizing eyes.
The all thing masterly complemented by an awesome soundtrack.

Here’s a taster: Ten Million Slaves from Otis Taylor’s Banjo.
