Christian Bale Premieres Public Enemies

Christian Bale and his wife Sibi Blazic hold hands as they arrive at the premiere of Universal Pictures’ Public Enemies at the AMC Theater on Thursday (June 18) in Chicago, Illinois.

The 35-year-old actor talked a little bit about Johnny Depp‘s character John Dillinger. ”He created a sort of Robin Hood myth about himself. He wasn’t giving the money back to the poor, but he wasn’t taking it from them either,” Bale told the Chicago Sun-Times.

Also at the premiere Depp commented, “He was a man of the people. The banks were the enemies, just as they are now. Funny similarity, huh? ‘Plus the government was doing shiftier things than the bank robbers. Hmmm … that sounds familiar too, doesn’t it?”
